Dagenham and Redbridge 6 Chester City 0
Leeds United, Chester City's Carling Cup opponents on Tuesday night will be quaking in their boots after the Blues made the worst possible start to a new campaign with a massive defeat in the capital.
Following a pre-season shocker against Telford United the previous week, City continued where they left off with another embarrassing display against unfancied Dagenham and Redbridge.
The Daggers ran rings around City, whose defensive display was trully dire. Goals from Solomon Taiwo, Paul Benson (2), Sam Saunders (2) and Nwokeji were enough to give the hosts a morale boosting victory, and left the 204 Chester City fans wondering how their fortunes will fare this term.
Chester City: Danby, J. Vaughan, Linwood, Roberts, Wilson,, Partridge (Taylor 79), Barry, Harris (Man nix 58), Monika, Lowe, Ellison. Subs: Dinning, St. Vaughan, Kelly.
