I can not believe how many of the dagenham supporters can honestly think they lost a place in the football league. Boston finished in first place. So if boston's punishment was not being allowed in the football league then Halifax would of stayed up due to the rulings between the football league, the F.A and the conference. It actually happened to Boston in the late nineties. We were in the unibond league before we swapped over to the D.M.L. The team that finished top of the table's ground was not good enough for Conference football. But did Boston Take there place in default? NO . The third from bottom team in the conference stayed up instead. You never heard us moaning then (much)! IF the DAGGERS are any good this year they will be champs and meet again with us in the football league.
