My first game at Daggers and lost 3-2 at home to Runcorn.

Relegated to Ryman League at end of the season.

No way did I expect Daggers to spend 9 years in the Football League (including one in League 1) back then.

Two months before that for me, Feb 1996 vs Stalybridge Celtic, won 4-1 (Stringfellow, Taylor and Derry x 2, I think).
