MESSAGE TO THE FANS:
We can share that the Club’s Chairman, Daniel Hall, plans to step down from his role. We thank him for his service and commitment to Dagenham & Redbridge FC during his tenure.
This transition comes in advance of the introduction of a new ownership consortium, who wish to address all Daggers supporters directly in the message below.
Of course, any change of ownership is subject to all relevant agreements and approvals; thank you for your patience and respect while this process is ongoing, and we hope to share more with you very soon.
Dear Daggers Fan.
What makes English football uniquely special is the fans. Your passion transforms the game into something extraordinary, creating unforgettable moments, uniting communities, and fostering a spirit of togetherness felt worldwide.
Having experienced football culture both in the UK and internationally, we see how genuine passion for the sport can sometimes be overshadowed by distractions like excessive branding, content overload, or boardroom politics.
At its heart, however, Dagenham and Redbridge FC remains fundamentally a football club, driven by authentic community spirit and love for the game.
We acknowledge the instability the Club experienced earlier this year, disrupting momentum and unity that had been carefully built over the years. Now, we are firmly committed to placing football at the forefront once again.
This week, Daggers proudly announced a new manager, Lee Bradbury. We genuinely believe that Lee has the proven ability to rebuild and elevate the club. He will need your support as fans more than ever to help achieve this shared vision.
To deliver on this vision, we’ve identified a consortium of experienced football investors, driven by a shared passion for East London’s heritage, resilience. and diversity. This group brings together local knowledge combined with significant international expertise, particularly from the Middle East. United States and Europe. and is focused on ensuring both business continuity and fresh, innovative thinking.
This group is delighted with the Club’s decision to sign Lee Bradbury and is looking forward to further updates. including exciting announcements about player signings and additions to the coaching staff.
Beyond the pitch. we are exploring impactful partnerships that can immediately enhance matchday experiences. foster stronger community connections, and elevate the club’s profile both locally and internationally.
Community isn’t just a department, it’s our foundation and most valuable asset. Together. we will strive to make Victoria Road a stadium that opponents fear to visit.
Thank you for your continued support and COYD!

Twitter users reacted as the Dagenham & Redbridge chairman steps down, a new consortium coming in with a message also sent to the fans…
@9men: Got to say, I’m not sorry Hall has stepped down, his position was untenable after the series of bad decisions. I expect the new consortium had some say in Bradbury. Will be interesting to see the exact make-up and who of the current crop keep any interest.
@rmt_1982: Sounds like Fawaz Al-Hasawi…
@OnceADagger: Won’t be Serry. His minions won’t accept it after what happened as they were annoyed at him for buying a club full of “genocide supporters”
@RickieCarroll17: So who is this Consortium taking over Dagenham & Redbridge?
@notepaddy:Just the average week at @Dag_RedFC
New manager
1st (of many I hope) decent signings
New kit and merch deal announced
And now a new board ?
Bring it on!

@Deanosyko: I was thinking maybe admin forgot the password for the daggers account last week but I’m glad he figured the password out and the ball is rolling, let’s see what happens next! New manager, new kit provider and now a new player. Keep it coming!
@leewilsonDRFC: Quite a few days for the ‘Daggers newsletter’! 😄 My head hurts.
@beth_n15: Dagenham went from 0-60 a bit rapid didn’t they! Gone from being manager-less and MIA to having a manager, kit sponsor, new signing and new ownership in a day. One normal day please. Also to find out whilst absentmindedly scrolling my emails too. What a club.
@Diggerthedog1: Only thing left to do now is announce the new 25,000 seater stadio della Dagenham 😂
