Some of you may have been following my Story with Welling United and it took longer than I thought and I have lost interest in it, so this is my new story with Essex Based Team Dagenham and Redbridge.
Dagenham are quite a new team with them being founded in 1992 following a merger between Dagenham and Redbridge Forest. After climbing up the non-league structure, The Daggers finally reached the Football League in 2007. In 2010 The Daggers reached League 1 which would mean they would travel to former premier league teams Charlton and Southampton. They only lasted the one season in League 1 as the season ended in relegation in 2011 they will play in League 2.
I chose Dagenham as I have followed them for a few years now and have admired John Still's accomplishments with The Daggers since 2004.
Here are my Start of Season Expectations, and it is achievable.
And here are my Transfers for the upcoming season and I have got FMScout Favourites Jamil Adam and Fergus Bell.
The Results from the Month of August.
N-Power League 2.
Dagenham 2-0 Southend United
An even game in terms of shots and possession but we just took our chances with Striker Sam Williams and Winger Medy Elito grabbed the goals.
Bradford City 0-6 Dagenham
As expected a match which we dominated from start to finish, but Bradford had more possession. They had 7 shots compared to our 17 and Jamil Adam scored a hattrick, midfielder Conor Okus grabbed 2 goals and defender Mark Arber scored a penalty.
Dagenham 1-0 Macclesfield
Another match which we dominated and defender Scott Doe scored a header from a corner to wrap up a win.
Oxford 1-4 Dagenham
Another dominant win for the team who have hit some fine early season form, with two goals from Jamil Adam and the other goals from Peter Gain and Damien Scannell. Jamil Adam ended up getting sent off and Left Back Damien McCrory picked up a late injury.
Dagenham 4-0 Barnet
In this easy match Barnet didn't have a single shot on target and Jamil Adam missed this game through suspension. The goals coming from Luke Howell, Sam Williams and a double from Fergus Bell.
Cup Competitions
Carling Cup 1st Round
Dagenham 1-2 Bristol City
I expected a much heavier loss but we looked like at some stages we could snatch a win. Jamil Adam scored for us.
Johnstones Paint Trophy South Round 1
Southend 1-1 Dagenham
We lost on penalties, I was not very optimistic when going to a penalty shoot-out and I don't really care about this competition, Jamil Adam got our goal.
Good luck with your new quest buddy and a great strike force you have with Jamil Adam and Fergus Bell, i also have the pair of them, Fergus Bell is amazing for the low clubs 30+ goals a season.
My Results from the Month of September.
N-Power League 2
Crawley Town 2-1 Dagenham
Crawley are a rich team in this league and have a far bigger budget than what I have an I am not too Disapointed and Mark Arber grabbed a consolation goal with a header from a corner.
Dagenham 3-1 Bristol Rovers
A very good win against one of the favourites to win this league and a team who have a bigger budget. Mark Arber scored again, with a remarkable record for a defender and he missed a penalty. Jamil Adam and Sam Williams grabbed the other goals in a game which we had more possession.
Hereford 1-4 Dagenham
A game which we dominated in terms of possession and the chances we had. Jamil Adam also grabbed a Hattrick with Winger Dominic Green Grabbing the 4th.
Torquay 3-2 Dagenham
Our away form is starting to slip and im not happy with Jamil Adam for getting sent off again, he is my key striker and my top goalscorer and my two goals were from an own goal and Winger Medy Elito.
Dagenham 2-1 Crewe
Another brilliant performance from the team as we dominated and had triple the shots Crewe had with the goals coming from Damien Scannell and Mark Arber. Also an injury to Sam Williams.
The Results for the month of October

Dagenham 2-0 Accrington
Getting back to winning ways in style with this dominant win and we had 22 shots compared to their 3 and Mark Arber redeemed himself for the penalty miss by scoring from a corner and Winger Dominic Green getting the other goal.

Our miserable away form continued with an awful loss which we were dominated from start to finish.

A match which Shrewsbury dominated large amounts of, but Jamil Adam grabbed a goal to give us a morale boosting win to carry on home form.
