On a recent flick through the CD collection, it seemed none other than Billy Bingham was staring back from the cover of a certain album. Read on to find out what we’re talking about!

Pre-season always brings with it a troupe of trialists hoping to earn themselves a contract. The Daggers have already used 16 such players, including several whose names require rather nimble oratory skills to pronounce. Here’s our run-down of all the unfamiliar names on our recent team sheets.

Whilst the Daggers have always tried to bring young players through, last season’s struggle against relegation from League One didn’t really present many chances for this to happen. Now we find ourselves back in League Two, the chance is there to give our younger players a taste of first-team football. But who can make the step up?

Recent form has seen the Daggers move to within 6 points of safety having been 9 adrift last month. With 20 matches remaining, suddenly there is renewed optimism at Victoria Road that the great escape could be on. We wouldn’t be the first team to pull of such a feat, with plenty of sources of inspiration in recent history.

Are you struggling to fight relegation and need assistance before it’s too late? Or perhaps you are challenging for promotion and require something extra to get you over the line? Well we have the solution to all your problems. New from 9-men, Jon Nurse Capsules can provide the boost you’ve been searching for.

Does young Daggers left-back Damien McCrory look a bit like a certain Football League manager?
