With the Daggers’ unexpected elevation to the third tier of English football, John Still has found himself with plenty to do in the transfer market. Whilst our thin squad was stretched to its limit in the middle part of the previous campaign, it seems there is no chance of similar problems this time around. Already 7 new players are confirmed on contract for the coming season, with other possibilities from an array of trialists.

Cheltenham Town swooped to sign Wes Thomas this week as the Daggers front man ended a two-year stay at the club. Signed on a three-year deal from Fisher Athletic in September 2008, Wes had one year left to run on his contract.
