I’ve actually gone to an away game (Enfield) and the first half has been as dull as dishwater.

So here is your March Poll.

Who is the worst Daggers manager of all time?

Has to be Lewis Young without a doubt, absolutely clueless and dragged us down to NLS, im still of the opinion that he did it on purpose not only because he’s a C#t

True but he could do a wonderful power point presentation! Shame he didn’t have the bollox to attend the fans forum to explain his shitness.

Oopsie… will amend poll…

No Peter Taylor? We’ve had some atrocious mangers haven’t we, bar John Still and Garry Hill they’ve all been really bad, unluckiest fans on the planet.

We have had some terrible managers, but Young is the worst of the lot and it’s not even a question. The damage he do to this club will impact us for so much longer than the 5 months it took him to inflict it

GONE

Lewis Young is looking for a job!

Ted Hardy was pretty good. Got us to Wembley in his first season but the rest have been very disappointing considering the budgets they had.

Apologies, yes Ted was a real man and let me and my pal be a ball boy for a few games even though we didn’t need them. Don’t make them like that anymore.

Ted Hardy laid the foundations for the Garry Hill years. A lot of Garry Hill’s team was originally recruited by Ted.

Going back a few years he also mentored John Still to some extent- John played under Ted for some time.

Ted stayed with the club and scouted for us until his health declined.

RIP a great man and a club legend.

Well said Auntie

Taylorball was unbearable at the best of times, however he was set the task of keeping us up and he was successful in that with limited backing, the dull but rigid structure was more successful than any tactics/gameplan Lewis Young could think of which still to this day no one really knows what it was and ultimately sent the club down.
