Daggers hit ten past Rovers

Great Wakering Rovers 0-10 Dagenham & Redbridge

Vanarama National League Dagenham & Redbridge handed Great Wakering Rovers a ten-goal drubbing in a one-sided pre-season warm-up encounter at Burroughs Park.

The Daggers started with no less than six trialists in their line-up. Josh Walker and Paul McCallum both netted hat-tricks, while Mauro Vilhete (2), Scott Wilson and a trialist completed the rout, leaving Rovers boss, Steve Butterworth and his troops shellshocked.

“Was a harsh lesson against a very good side,” Butterworth told Yellow Sport.

“It came at a time when we, as a group, had started to think we were looking good. Now we have to work that bit harder, making sure we are ready for the Isthmian League opener in two weeks.”
