A Tribute to a Dagenham Legend:
West & Coe Honours Steve Thompson 

At West & Coe Funeral Directors, we would like to take a moment to honour a true Dagenham legend. Following the news that Steve Thompson will be stepping down as Managing Director of Dagenham & Redbridge FC, we want to share our immense gratitude for his decades of service.

While West & Coe has proudly served as the club’s main sponsor for 20 years, it is our 30-year friendship with Steve that sits at the very heart of this partnership.

Steve’s passion and commitment to the Daggers have been nothing short of remarkable. Throughout the highs and the more challenging periods, he remained a beacon of positivity, always striving for what was best for the club. To us, Steve has been the ‘glue’ holding the club together, working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure its stability and growth.

His impact extends far beyond the pitch. Steve’s dedication to the local community and his support for grassroots organisations have earned him deep respect across the council and the borough. It is his leadership, integrity, and genuine love for the club that have allowed our “small club from Essex” to not only survive but thrive.

“Being so close to Steve, we know the true extent of his incredible dedication. He has been the driving force behind the club’s success, and his legacy is woven into the fabric of Dagenham & Redbridge FC.”

Steve, we offer our heartfelt thanks for everything you have achieved. You will always be a legend in our eyes. We wish you the very best in your next chapter and look forward to seeing you at the Victoria Road ground for many years to come.
