Watched this and loved every minute apart from a slight slip with our history - but the past is another country. Looking forward to what is next.

Not even the first ex-dagger to appear as a World Cup coach. The GOAT @Keepersworld has that one locked down forever

Any #daggers watching England v New Zealand keep an eye out for former Daggers legend 💕 Paul Gothard on the NZ bench - he is their GK and set play coach.

As a @#daggers fan I am really enjoying all these signings from @lee_allinson. I see there is a real team being built - and not a retirement home! I feel we have the potential for greatness ahead. Definitely exciting times @Dag_RedFC. I might even put a bet on us winning 6-0!

This is a great reminder, that when we lose a job, or life changes or challenges us, we still remain the same person inside. You don’t suddenly stop being good at the things you were good at, just because you may not be doing them right now. Keep the faith. #CareerDevelopment
I can’t believe that it is 8 years since I cycled the C2C for @BTBSCharity and recorded this video. It seems a lifetime ago but something I dreamed of for years. One day I would love to do it again. (the end of this will make you smile). youtu.be/40z3ezAzFYc?si=oW6a…

Back to work and I’m in the office, helping clients rebuild their publishing careers and then answering a lot of emails. 486 gulp. Am I going to reach inbox zero by the end of the month?

My best 6-0 prediction was when @Dag_RedFC beat Morecambe 6-0 in the L2 POSF. On the day, my Morecambe friend, the late great Sean O’Connor texted me ‘I think you’re going to win 6-0, we’re terrible at the moment’. He believed, and we did. news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foo…

I’ve been asked why I want @Dag_RedFC to win every game 6-0. I’ve been predicting that result ever since the internet began. Be honest, every fan wants to see their team win comprehensively, not draw and definitely not lose! I wrote about it here suzannecollier.com/6-0-wins/

Such a stressful listen to the football this afternoon. Well done Spurs. I had to take myself off for a paddle. Such a lovely evening.

Dear Spurs, please don’t go all Spursy today. Not so much for me, I’m daggers through and through, but for those around me. Thank you.
