After a frustrating month where good performances were not quite reflecting the Daggers points tally, the side bounced back in emphatic fashion disposing of a previously in form Macclesfield side 4-0.
After someone turned out the lights a little too early when the Daggers were leading Exeter 1-0 last week, it was a welcome three points [...]
