Blinkhorn strike~snatches points

Blinkhorn made it six goals from the last seven games when he headed home a deep Wayne Curtis cross.

The struggling Daggers looked set for a point after goalkeeper Ed Thompson marked his Football League debut with a penalty save from Carl Baker 20 minutes from time but John Still’s side could not hold on.

They had chances themselves to take something from the game with new loan signing Ryan Hall heading over from close range after 16 minutes and midfielder Shane Huke missing the target from close range on the hour after a Hall corner.

At the other end, Stewart Drummond came close for Morecambe but the game seemed to be heading for a draw until Sammy McIlroy’s side clinched another late win.
