Daggers show their metal against the Pirates
May. 8 | Our Daggers Diary team headed down to Victoria Road for the final game of the season, knowing that next season they will be welcoming the likes of Fleetwood, Chesterfield and Rochdale next season, safe for another campaign that at times was very dubious. The...
Taming the Shrew..well sort of
Apr. 30 | There can be few better moments than knowing that you are safe coming into the last game of the season as a football fan. An away trip to a team at the top of the table takes on a different meaning and you can enjoy life a bit more. The air smells...
Safety first
Apr. 25 | All is fair in love, war and football. Well, that is what we are led to believe. If it wasn’t for the pantomine villians, football would be no fun. But when they escape the punishment of the fans it is oh, so frustrating. Brian Parish reports...

Dark days for the Daggers
Mar. 15 | Saturdays defeat at Wimbledon dumped Dagenham and Redbridge to the bottom of the Football League. Things look bleak but with a home game against fellow relegation rivals Northampton Town next up perhaps they could take a massive step to saviour. Brian...
Dons outthink free falling Daggers
Mar. 12 | Fresh from the beaches of Catalunya, Brian Parish was ready for the Daggers final push to save their Football League status – well for a week at least before he went back out to Spain. After the glamour and excitement of our European trip a couple...
The great EU bailout
Feb. 27 | It warms our hearts when we hear about some of the trips people make to see football around Europe. This week our beloved Brian Parish and Dagenham Dan teamed up with long-suffering Wolves fan Neil Shenton and hopped across the Channel to fit in an astounding...
