Although it beats me to say this as I'm a S/T up the TBS just maybe the club made the right decision in segregation Saturday. Actually thought they'd have a few more as to my knowledge don't think the teams have ever met in Dagenham. Feel its always the 'away day mentality' , early start when under probably excess amount of alcohol before kick off and on masse up pops the bad old days mentality. Shame really as when we visited Edgeley Park early November found it a great experience, friendly and good decent watering holes, would really lower the bar if Non League football becomes a Saturday afternoon when your forever looking over your shoulder.
Our first football league game was away to Stockport, so they have been to Dagenham before.
The club definitely made the right call on this; they rarely get it wrong.
If Stockport know they have an issue then its surely be worth them taking their own stewards to away games. I expect the troublemakers would no longer travel, if they did they’d know they could be easily identified and banned.
