We start at home against Ebbsfleet. As expected Hornchurch on Boxing day. Last game of the season away at Slough.

Allways nice to get a home game to start and a win would be ideal.

Boring first home game. But Hornchurch (H) and Ebbsfleet (A) on the 26th and the 30th is solid.

Ebbsfleet will be pleased with that first game

Wow that is an action packed fixture list. Really looking forward to Totton away as I have heard the clubhouse has a great selection of real ales. Slough on the final day will also be a great day out for fans if we manage to put a successful season together. Hopefully the weather shows up that day so we can make the most of it.

Wouldn’t surprise me if hessenthaler has the game of his life against us.

I’d be stunned if hessentosser has a good game, ridden on the backs of his team mates his entire career and never been relegated!
Can’t wait for him to come back to Victoria Road to hopefully continue our chat from Solihull

It will kick off between Shiloh remy and the Dagenham supporters in April at Chelmsford (H)

15 home games on saturday, Also 2 on a monday daytime/ 2 on a friday daytime around the bank holiday periods.

Will take that, love the old school daytime games, plenty to look forward too!

Until bad weather kicks in and we’re rearranging postponed games on tinpot pitches, not forgetting having to play in early rounds of cup comps, 6/7 games could easily be rescheduled if us or opponents get to later stages of trophy of fa cup.

I'll be in town for home fixtures against Tonbridge Angles on a Tuesday (19 August) and Hemel Hempstead on a Monday (25 August). I am guessing the Monday fixture is a banking holiday. I was hoping to take in a classic Saturday game as that might be the bigger crowd but Monday might not be so bad either. Just happy to get a chance to see them in person.

Looking at the fixture list just made me think " What the ****** have we done !!"
It has finally hit home that we are in the 6th division. There is nothing exciting about any of it for me, and the Aveley game for me last week just showed me that this will be no walk in the park.

Trust. Do you think we're the first team in history to play against BOTH Southampton and their noted local rivals AFC Totton? Maybe Young could put that on his CV.

I felt partly the same. The reality has hit home today. And those partly responsible are still within our club.

But we are Daggers. We will pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and fight to get our club back on all levels.

How many of these clubs have we played before in regular season fixtures or Cup competitions?

How many of these clubs have been in the National League and have any ever been in EFL?
