Byrne in as Rose exits Daggers

Versatile Dagenham defender Richard Rose has had his contract terminated by mutual consent, while defender Andrew Byrne has joined the club.

Rose, 29, joined the League Two club a year ago on a free transfer after leaving Hereford. But he has struggled to hold down a place in the first team and Daggers boss John Still told the club's official webite: "It just perhaps didn't work out how everyone would have liked for him this time around. "All the coaching staff wish him all the best and I have to say he is one of the game's nice guys, a real top fellow and we wish him the best of luck." Heading into the club is Byrne, 18, who impressed while playing in a reserve match for Bradford. Still added: "Andrew is a young boy that we're going to take. He's only a baby, but I like him."
