You'll find some new fixed bins around the Old Spotted Dog Ground to help improve our recycling rates. 🟢 Green bins for all cans, plastic bottles and single-use plastic cups ⚫ Black bins for general waste - including food packaging Everything is on fire, let's do what we can.

New pathway almost complete 🔥 Those visiting the Old Spotted Dog Ground now have more room and step-free access making matchdays safer and more accessible. One last bit to go - a small patch between the pitch entrance and the dressing room walkway. @claptoncfc.co.uk

The second day of concreting took place last Saturday with the added pressure of completing before a @claptoncfc.co.uk friendly at 3pm. With the right sort of concrete delivered this time, our volunteer crew had little to no problems in getting it sorted 🙏👏

First pouring today of our new lager, Hair of the Dog, named following a @claptoncfc.co.uk members vote. Brewed by Pretty Decent, it's only available at the Old Spotted Dog Ground clubhouse 🐾

At our first home league match as a fan-owned club, 256 fans came down to the "Stray Dog" pitch round the back of Wadham Lodge. 1712 at the @oldspotteddog.bsky.social is unreal.

Clapton CFC@claptoncfc.co.uk · 4mo ago

Our club record home attendance of 1712. From these streets, we built this club.

Most clubs would ask the kids kicking a ball round the back of the clubhouse to stop. @claptoncfc.co.uk isn't most clubs ❤️🤍

We’ve built a little goal for kids, around the back of the clubhouse ⚽⚽ It got its first usage on Sunday with lots of mini-ballers getting involved at the @claptoncfc.co.uk Women's First Team game.

Down to the @oldspotteddog.bsky.social for @claptoncfc.co.uk 4 #FCRomania 2 yesterday, a top vs bottom clash in front of a record CCFC gate of 1,712. For context, this 10 tier game attracted more fans than five matches in the National League, five tiers above. Extraordinary.

There's more room to stand around the Old Spotted Dog Ground now with new fencing being installed by CCFC members. We’re part-way through making it more accessible following the £10,000 fundraising campaign. The old fencing hasn't gone yet but you can now stand up to the fencing nearest the pitch.

Good news! Newham Council has accepted the request to officially recognise Walter Tull Way as the name of the path beside the Old Spotted Dog Ground, home of @claptoncfc.co.uk

Tense 2-0 wins for @claptoncfc.co.uk & @ipswichtown.bsky.social, both are now one place outside their leagues respective automatic spots. Bobby & I could only be in one place though - at the @oldspotteddog.bsky.social for Clapton CFC 2 Cannons Wood 2. @nonleaguedogs.bsky.social #nonleaguedog

Today is your last day to suggest a name for a new @claptoncfc.co.uk lager! After the success of the Old Scaffold Daze IPA collaboration with Pretty Decent Brewing, they are producing a session lager exclusive for the Old Spotted Dog Ground. Send your suggestions to bar@oldspotteddog.org by 9pm.

New bike racks have arrived! 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️ We're trialling them out just inside the Upton Lane gate for now.

58 massive scaffold poles unloaded last week - the first task of the accessibility project is complete. The poles will make up the new pitch perimeter fence. Keep an eye out for future comms if you’d like to help out with the the next stage of the project 🤝

⚽️ Pitch update ⚽️ The Old Spotted Dog Ground pitch is surprisingly dry today - despite the storms over the last few days. Unless the weather forecast is drastically wrong, Saturday's Men's First Team game against Brimsdown is very likely to be ON. 😍

Merry Christmas 🎄 There’s some great news to end the year as the accessibility fundraiser has hit its target of £10,000. Thanks to everyone who donated and shared. Work will start in the New Year. www.oldspotted.dog/news/old-spo...

Old Spotted Dog Ground Accessibility Improvement Project hits its target - The Old Spotted Dog

We’re delighted to announce that we’ve reached our fundraising target for the Accessibility Improvement Project

oldspotted.dog

The fundraiser to make the Old Spotted Dog Ground accessible for wheelchairs, those with mobility issues and those with reindeer-powered sleighs is edging closer to the target. Please donate if you can or share with your contacts and on social media 👇 chuffed.org/project/1499...

Someone had this cool idea before, and since I cannot watch our teams at OSD this weekend 😥, will do the best next thing and donate what I would spend on tickets to the games to the campaign instead 😄 Please donate if you can. chuffed.org/project/1499... @oldspotteddog.bsky.social @claptoncfc.co.uk
