Opposition View...

Post by nickthedagger »

Hey guys, Dagenham supporter here wanting to share with you my account of Tuesday's match for those that were unable to get there/want an alternative perspective on events. Should also say what a cracking effort it was to bring 114 as well considering everything!

Anyway, enjoy and thanks to letting me onto your board - http://thedaggersscale.blogspot.co.uk/2 ... -pain.html

What a delightfully written and perfectly balanced report. Enough humour to keep the immature reader (me) happy and enough fact to appeal to those who weren't there (eerm, me again). Not sure who this Luke Macklin is though, maybe Lloyd's brother?

Plus points for almost no annoying grammatical errors and general content, minus points for appalling and obvious Tom Cruise/Mission Impossible pun.

Overall, a commendable 8.5/10.

Matt.

Thanks nick, a good read and has made me feel a little better about our situation now.

All the best to you and the Daggers.
