It's one of my favourite times of the footballing year - new season ticket time down at Dulwich! How exciting! I love a laminated credit card size piece of paper with a photograph depicting a proud moment from our club's 114 year history. Usually it's from sometime in the past ten years, usually a photograph taken by me.
But still - it's like Top Trumps time at school all over again.
My favourite picture was probably 2003's rabble of supporters from sometime in the '70s. The 1970's. Look behind the Dulwich goal at any home match and not much has changed to be honest.
I started watching Dulwich in 1995, but didn't buy a season ticket until four years later (for reasons I'd rather not go into here...)
There's still some catching up to do to overtake my thirty one year association with Forest; but come 4:45 on a Saturday afternoon, events up in the East Midlands are often brushed aside; down in Dulwich and I can spend the rest of my weekend feeling bloody depressed.
I could always eBay them and yes, we do have a matching his 'n hers set. But it's part of my own social history and something that I'm rather proud of.
