Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 11:10 AM May 8, 2021 The Daggers are on fire, playing exciting football, scoring goals for fun and winning games. The latest chapter of this winning streak saw Daryl McMahon's men gain six points out of a possible six on a victorious May Bank Holiday.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 1:00 PM May 1, 2021 Updated: 1:31 PM May 1, 2021 Another victory on the pitch, admissions of failure and renewed promises off it - there is a lot to talk about this week at the Daggers. We'll begin with the matters on the pitch, and just the one game this week, something we've become accustomed to in recent weeks.

Barking & Dagenham Post — It was another comprehensive victory for Dagenham & Redbridge who extended their winning streak to four at The Hive - now familiar goal-scorers Paul McCallum and Matt Robinson securing the three points. This latest triumph moves the Daggers into the top half of the table with six games left to play.

Column: A quiet week as Dagenham look to build on recent momentum

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 12:40 PM April 24, 2021 A fairly quiet week as far as the Daggers were concerned - football itself though, has again been very much the centre of attention. The disastrous, joke of the Super League has begun and ended since the Daggers last played - in an impressive victory at Victoria Road.

The sun was shining down as McMahon's men made it three consecutive wins with Paul McCallum, Angelo Balanta and Matt Robinson all on the scoresheet.

The action-packed affair saw the hosts come from behind early on and go on to win the game thanks to goals from George Saunders, Angelo Balanta and Matt Robinson, despite a late Rooney goal - McMahon's men showing great character and quality throughout.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 10:00 AM April 17, 2021 Mission accomplished? I'd say so. The mission set out at the beginning of the week was to restore pride and faith in the team. Raving remarks following Tuesday's convincing win would evidence that has been achieved. However, this week of action wasn't all plain-sailing, with last Saturday ending in defeat to Bromley.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 1:21 PM April 10, 2021 The Shots inflicting their second defeat of the season (securing the double), Dagenham's second loss of the weekend, as a 2-0 victory at Victoria Road saw the Daggers put in a dire display. This, topping off an Easter weekend to forget for McMahon's side, a disappointing weekend to say the least.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Dagenham's play-off hopes were seemingly ended at Victoria Road, as a lacklustre display saw Daryl McMahon's side condemned to a 2-0 defeat. A Jon Nouble goal fifteen seconds into the second half was enough to seal the deal for Danny Searle's Aldershot.

Barking & Dagenham Post — A late Angelo Balanta goal was enough to secure an important win for Daggers at Victoria Road after surviving some late drama. But they were not the talk of the town today - as local neighbours Hornchurch stole that conversation with their FA Trophy semi-final exploits in Nottingham.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 10:00 AM March 27, 2021 It was a week which saw Daryl McMahon's side looking to extend their unbeaten run to five, then perhaps six, but the unbeaten run came to an end after five games - a victory in Altrincham followed by defeat to Hartlepool.

When a COVID investigation was announced on Friday at the Daggers; I didn't expect any action on the pitch for at least a week - but a pleasant surprise came on Monday. It was confirmed the Daggers will play on Tuesday at home to Weymouth!

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 10:42 AM March 14, 2021 Four points, four goals and a new signing, to top off a week full of positivity at Dagenham and Redbridge, seemingly - a turning point. But, news to follow a few hours after the signing of Mauro Vilhete was to dampen the mood somewhat; a positive test in the Daggers camp requiring all players and staff to self-isolate.

Barking & Dagenham Post — A deserved, hard-fought victory for the Daggers was secured by a Paul McCallum goal on his return to Solihull - ending a personal goal drought - leaving those at Dagenham delighted. The Daggers travelled to the midlands to face Solihull Moors in the National League, for only the ninth instalment in the history of the fixture - at a showery Damson Park.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 10:25 AM February 27, 2021 Unjust and harsh. Now some, on reflection of conceding from a last-minute penalty that led to a bitter 2-1 defeat, will say - that's football. Indeed, after venting his frustration at the officials at full-time, goal scorer Liam Gordon took this view.

Barking & Dagenham Post — Published: 1:35 PM February 13, 2021 It's been a dramatic, humiliating and humbling week at the Daggers - becoming the centre of National League ridicule during midweek. Though the onus is squarely on the players and their attitude - the owners sticking by the man they put in the dugout.

Despite a promising start, Elliot Justham had to save his side on a few occasions in the first half - keeping the scores level at the break.

The issue, becoming ever more prevalent, halting progress in terms of fixtures played - COVID-19.
