Dulwich Hamlet Predictions

Dulwich Hamlet 1 Carlisle United 6 (Six)

Hope 2, Loft, Thomas, Bridge pen, McKirdy.

404 Blues in attendance

I fear that this team under this manager is tailor made to be on the end of a cup upset. Naive, physically weak, low work rate, lack of fight, doesn’t create many chances, concedes lots of goals, used to losing.

Dulwich 1-0 Carlisle

Hopefully I’m wrong as it’s hugely important that we get through.

Agree Crunchblue, I`ve got a nervous feeling about this match, Dulwich will be fired up and I`m not confident that some of our players will have the mental or physical strength to cope. If Dulwich score first I think we`ll have our work cut out to get back into the match, but obviously hoping for a win just to get some akkers in the coffers and give the mid season a bit of interest. I`ll go for a nervy 1 - 0 win.

We are very vulnerable to an upset and the BBC have a fairly good record of picking first round upsets in recent years.

However, Dulwich are a long way down the pyramid and not in good form themselves.

Dulwich 0 Carlisle 2

Usually when a teams on a bad run its Carlisle that suffers

All about getting an early goal in these games. I'll go 3-0 to us.

Come on let's be a bit more positive.

Bath beat them 3-1 at Dulwich on Saturday and I don't think Bath have even got a football team.

Dulwich 1-3 Carlisle Loft, McKirdy and Thomas with the goals

Anybody cup tied?...

We signed Gary Fulbrook from Bath City. I used to sit behind him on the bus at Swindon

Our players? Doubt it given that it's the first round.

Hard to know when you're not having a laugh nobby....but yeah let's have a pause in the knocking department and hope for a result

Easy 5-1 to us, pressley looks like a tactical magician in front of the nation. Everyone wonders why we're twining about him

Tough one to call Dulwich will be up for it and what does Elvis do ? how many of the loanees will be able to play ? does his stick with the 2 young lads at the back or does he go back in with Webster ? Am going for a draw going on our recent performances I can't see us beating them down there but based on there recent performances I can't see them beating us either

1-1 Draw

Dulwich 0 Carlisle 1.

2,895 (427 away).

No Highlights to show at half time. I wouldn't be disappointed with a draw as a possible further £75,000 for replay.

Edited for away sell out of 500.

0-1 Hamlet go close but no cigar.

I only hope the 90minutes doesn't ruin my weekend away(it usually does)

3-2 Carlisle loft,Sorenson and Thomas for us and Yusuff and Vose for them. We’ll score first then they will go 2-1 up cues mass bed wetting and BBC commentator going radge only for us to silence them with loft and sorenson getting a late winner and a BBC meltdown. Sorenson then bags a hat tick in his next game and continues his form till the end of the season. We will then make some solid signings in January because we will draw Leeds at home and lose but gain plenty of money. We then go on a winning run to get into the playoffs and go up. Presley is given a statue outside BP and Laffy and Phillip day become joint owners of the club. (Only joking)

Thats nothing to joke about......you got my hopes up there!!!!

Back in the day the adverts would have nearly started in the run up and Babycham and the Cherrybee ones heh heh

Dulwich Hamlet were a top amateur side in the 1930s and got crowds of over 20,000.

The games that we have won this season have generally been against the lesser lights of the division.
The players would have to be pretty deluded to be over-confident about this one.
I really hope Loft gets a deserved start and we play a bit more direct.
Our midfield is abysmal at the moment and if we are too cagey it will backfire.
They don't like it up em.
We should get through if we get the tactics right but it won't be easy.

Worth a read this.

I bet it's got bog rolls

Great article that NCF, if only our trust could get it together to do something similar.

Maybe NCF could copy that article to the trust and the BOD. I would imagine Jon Colman has picked up on it

It's a good read, isn't it, Walt & Blue? Have sent it to Jon as well.

That is some struggle and just shows the lengths developers go to in that world.

2-2 after blowing a 2-0 lead and we'll sneak a win in the replay to be rewarded with an away tie at Portsmouth.

I think we will win comfortably - because its on TV we should be up for it also.

Dulwich aren't doing well. 2 leagues below. This won't be us against Barnsley, with Barnsley not bothered, as its a big game for us also and we need the money.

A really dreadful game but 0-2 and through to the next round.

Lose this and we really are in trouble and will be the lowest point, ever, football wise for this club and no excuses Pressley will need shot of.

4-0 or 4-1 Carlisle. Got a good record against non-league teams in the cup and hammered quite a few in recent years.

I think tonight I'll watch the match behind the sofa , like when I was 6 watching Scoobie Doo. Tomorrow I'll either be chuffed, we're through 6-0. Or I'll be walking in a daze asking myself where is Dulwich Hamlet?

Confident for us to have a good display. I am expecting 3-0/4-1 to us.

Dulwich 0 Carlisle 7

1-4 to us I reckon.

Even players that cannot even make our bench should be too good for them like Hayden, who I quite like.

This has a strong whiff of Ilkeston Town about it.
We're dire, we don't score much, we're leaking goals against bad sides and to compound it all we are the masters of ending others poor runs of form.
I'm praying we just don't embarrass ourselves.
I don't care what the score is, just don't get knocked out live on national TV.

One thing I will predict: I expect them to score early....what we do about it afterwards is the biggest issue.

I predict Webster to be straight back in starting line up possibly even with NKP again ... experience blah blah blah

There's no doubt that this should be a comfortable win but come on this is CUFC we're talking about and we'll do it the hardest way possible.

See Dulwich have used the TV money today to bring in two new players, both available to play this evening

Ben Dempsey on loan from Charlton and Nathan Smith on a free formerly with Yeovil

Hoping for a win but fearing the typical Carlisle doing it the hard way

Are you sure about that....Collin states in his interview " I had a word with the gaffer on Monday about how well the two centre half's are doing"......let's see.

I totally agree with you HuntingHorn. Ive seen how awful the style of play Pressley's squad are capable of from watching games on Ifollow…...Scunthorpe and Macclesfield.

I'm absolutely bricking it and Im not looking forward to watching the game at all. I would only hope the silver lining from defeat is Pressley/Skelton shown the door.

Let's hope the gaffer listens

Cheers

I'd take a draw right now.
