As all of you daggers that were able to make the game away to 'the northern scum', you may have the desperation to get revenge on them. I know I cant wait for this game to come along!!!

What team should we put out and score predictions:

Here's mine:

Justham
Ling
Mitchell
Staunton
Widdowson
Raymond
Boucs
Maggie Drew
Gutts
Whitely
The Hawk

Score Prediction: 4-1 to the Mighty Daggers!!!

Isn't Boucaud on international duty?

He wasn't in the announced T&T squad so I doubt it.

Cousins
Ling
Hawkins
Staunton
Widdowson
Boucaud
Raymond
Hyde
JMD
Whitely
Benson

I'd pick Magnus over Benson if fit but I doubt he will be.

The only other available players are Heard and Justham afaik.

"Northern Scum"?

Braintree's best player who scored the pen and third on Monday has just signed for Barnet.

The centre back Santos that Barnett just signed for 100k was briefly with us too

I don't care what the score is, just wanna see a win!!! Work commitments mean the only matches I've been able to get to since bromley away have been Gateshead, Barrow and Braintree away!!!!

Maybe I should give it a swerve.

Would certainly be nice to see a home win - my Dad missed the Aldershot match so hasn't seen one for ages!

Bit concerned about what kind of defence we'll be able to put out, but hoping we can bang a few in..maybe a cheeky little 3-1 win?

C'mon you Daggers!! :D

I'm struggling to see where this win is coming from. Hopefully the cameras being there might force a decent performance.

Still can't quite work out the thinking behind BT having this as their TV 'extravaganza' directly up against West Ham vs Man Utd.. :?

West Ham will be long over before we kick off.

Ah cheers..you're bang on, like an eejit I'd thought both kick off times were the same.

Official site posted a news story at 09.30 this morning (2nd January) plugging friends for a fiver. The article concludes that the friends for a fiver tickets would be on sale until 5pm 30th December. Another commercial triumph.

1-0 to the Daggers. Time to plump up the cushions, make another nice cup of tea and settle back in to the armchair. I haven't seen them win since September so this is the way to do it!

Solid performance. Much better tonight both up front and at the back. More tempo, urgency and fluidity than at home recently and it paid off. Well done tonight Daggers.
