Could there be a split?

In the 33 year history since the amalgamation of the club there has never been so much division. Today was a clear example of that and you only need to look on social media (Daggers friends) to see this. You have a section of supporters who will stand by Thommo and the club board no matter what, and another section who believe that serious changes need to happen, otherwise we may not even have a club in the not too distant future. Could all this lead to a split and a creation of a new club? Similar to what happened with Enfield Town for example.

Those that stand by Thommo, Young and the board are happy to watch their club be bludgeoned to death in front of their eyes and do nothing about it.

There will be no split, people like me and my family will just walk away who are fed up with it The happy clappers who will have no bad word said about anybody will be left to fester in their own shit and piss and the club will drop to the isthmian prem leaving the happy clappers to play in front of 400, they’ll actually enjoy that as it will match their life’s ambitions. Wankers.

Waiting for the usual suspects to come on here this morning and tell us there are still 12 points to play for, were not going down and any team can go on a four game winning run... Just like I've read and heard for the past two months

No split.

People will walk away and watch other clubs, like all the fans who have already been alienated by the management of the club.

We are going down. The only way we will be saved is by an AGM cup, where another club above us gets kicked out of the league and we are retained to balance the books.

I wrote on the Conference forum, I got scammed. I bought a Daggers season ticket after being promised no less than a playoff position this season.
Relegation here we come.

The way the club is being run at present is the lowest point in 43 years of supporting, through several mergers and playing at a lower level.
I object to someone else coming in as an investor and supporting a failed ownership regime. Dan Hall is nothing more than a snake oil salesman. Daggers deserve better than him and the man who has presided single handedly over our downfall.
The club lost its way once Dave Andrews retired because no one of his calibre has at any time been added to the board: A football man who understands business.

Whoever comes in as Management will nine times out of ten not be making vast profits with us and normally lose money thus when a fan comes in quite wealthy and it succeeds like in the Macclesfield case its a wonderful feeling to the fans and normally it stays good because he or she is a great fan, sometimes it works with like the family who moved from Yeovil Town to York as business people but generally its a real fight in this Non League Division to keep on a challenging frame. The writing was on the wall with us ages ago and it reflected to the awful times on the pitch they should have done all they could to hold onto players especially strikers who would have got us out of this mess long ago. I'd seen enough ages ago to see the likes of this drop happening one day, just one eliminator play off place in almost ten Years and just happy a mid table finish that's the bottom line, be falling on deaf ears all this time and a Club with no vision!

The writing was on the wall after the Boston defeat. Not sure who the 'happy clappers' are or those happy to see the club die, but I sometimes get the impression that if you're not one of those on your feet telling Young to f-off or calling him a c**** then you're happy with the situation (like yesterday).

I said a few weeks ago that I thought the team needed support rather than personal abuse and took a bit of stick for it. Yesterday the support was good until we went I down and then it turned. Again, I get why fans think the Strevs, Justham stuff is relevant because it reflects the mismanagement of the club but I sometimes think it's pretty futile during the game. As said lots of people actually wanted Strevs gone anyway and it's not Young's fault he's been over promoted by incompetent owners.

Just my opinion.

To be honest I think a lot of the Strevs and Justham stuff is to remind them of their mismanagement in how they handle things. But also because those two, despite their performances this season, were proper Daggers that we don’t have now. Is a chant about the lost culture of this club, the way I see it. Also, it really pisses off Young and Hall, and as there is now genuine hatred for them from the fans, why would they not want to wind them up?

The support had been there for 3 months and the team and manager have shown nothing, it’s about time they were all told a few truths. We were already going down before the game yesterday, the protest are to save our club from complete ruin, I fear where we will be under these owners in a couple of years and won’t sit quietly.

Young and the players have had plenty of support, but are failing badly. They’ll be gone in a couple on months, we’ll be here forever. If they don’t want to receive said abuse, stop being shit

After Monday evening’s farcical unveiling of an Egyptian footballing great (at least on fifa) and the subsequent detective work unveiling the terrorist loving toads I truly believe that there will be a split coming as soon as this evenings fans forum… what type of split.. who knows, but it depends on what’s thrown and where it hits him
