Next Week - Redux


Another search of the DPC archives has revealed the an edition of "Next Week", the infamous fanzine of the Casuals.
If you would like to remember some of our glory days in PDF format. Click on the picture to the right, alternatively click here.

So far only one issue has been put in PDF format, there are plans to do the rest. But note I'm missing the cover, if you have a copy of the cover could you send me a scan of it, and the collectable poster inside. Ta.

Match 3, Spring 2007

Another Bank Holiday Monday, another piece of history.

With inferior numbers (6) the doughty Casuals stood firm against the Kenfica hordes (7) and fought off wave after wave of their vicious onslaughts (they're really quite good at the old 'give and go').

The astroturf pitches of the Hamlet resembled the blood soaked plains of Thermopylae and so it was that the rresult, eventually, would reflect that of antic lore - I think the Spartans also lost 2-0.

Well done to all that could make it. It was a cracking team performance from Andy steadfast in goal to Marco bravely taking on three players at once up front.

To those of you that were not there; weep that you will not be able to tell your grandchildren that you stood shoulder to shoulder with your immortal fellows on that historic night... ;-p

SOE Training!!??!!!!

The DPC archivist has uncovered a rare photograph which appears to raise more questions than answers regarding non-Casual activities.
Note -
  • The Helmet
  • The Wild Eyes
  • And the grin of someone who grins at danger.

Rumour has it that somehow, the sky has started to fall in on our heads and after an unbeatern run that stretched from March to May, the Casuals submitted to their first defeate in a long time. Further details required given that I was stuck in Perpignan on SOE businesss and had to miss the match. Over.
