Dagenham and Redbridge promoted

Dagenham and Redbridge have been promoted to League One after just three seasons in the Football League. They became only the second ever side to win the fourth tier Playoffs after finishing in the final Playoff place, following on from Blackpool in 2000/1.

Dagenham took the lead three times during the match and were twice pegged back. Benson had opened the scoring in the 38th minute before Taylor equalised within a minute. Green restored Dagenham's lead in the 56th minute, but Taylor equalised again, both of his only goals this season coming in the final. Jon Nurse scored the winner with 20 minutes to go.

After only being formed in 1992, Dagenham now find themselves just two promotions from the Premiership.

It now means that Imps will have two local derbies next season, Rotherham and Chesterfield.
