just want to say well done on achieving promotion. last night was one of the best games ive seen us play and lost. but when you come back twice it is the stuff of champions (even though i was gutted!). you were clearly the best team in the league and to do it at the expense of the likes of southampton and sheffield must feel even better and with a new stadium things are looking on the up.

Thanks mate. I hope and believe you guys will stay up.

How the hell are your lot down there ? I did think the same about Swindon - so it may just be there are lots of good teams in the division this year. But last night your lot played really well. Skill, pace, and commitment.

Cheers. I actually thought you were one of the best teams to come down here this season. You didn't come for a point and your no 8 (Akinde I think) caused our defence problems all night. My only criticism is that your defence was pretty woeful. 3 goals came from basically free headers although ours wasn't much better... Good luck for the rest of the season, hope you stay up!

Was quite impressed, some good attacking play and every corner of yours was dangerous, you certainly went for it. However, the space you gave us on the attack was pretty woeful and was always going to end up the way it did!

This season has given me a newfound respect for Dangenham and Redbridge. They have given us two good games, more so than any other team, and they never give up.

You've given us a hell of a game, twice. Your players put in a huge effort last night, pressing us all over the field but your adventure thankfully gave us some space to exploit. Oh and your defending of set pieces needs working on. :wink:

I'd say Rochdale gave us two better games, but I agree with your sentiments :wink:

One of the best teams to play at Withdean this season for sure though not sure if we would have struggled so much if Greer had been playing.
Always felt we would win even at 3-2 but keep playing like that and i`m sure you will stay up.
Hopefully we can do you a favour by beating Walsall and Notts County but feel fringe players might get a run out.

Daggers deserved more than no points from the game up there, and they probably deserved more than nothing last night too.

Good luck to them

Two suspect defenses made for a very interesting and tense game last night. If they continue to play like that and can tighten up at the back they could well stay up. Only negative point, I'd really like to give that Danny Green a smack for being a bit of a twat.

Thanks jamie. I thought Dagenham were very unfortunate not to have got something out of the game, your team put in a fantastic effort and I am at loss to understand why you are down the bottom of the table. Akinde, Vincelot and the annoying Green were all excellent last night and gave us an almighty fight. Good luck in your relegation fight, think you proved that you were than just "a pub team from Essex" last night.

Daggers showed a lot of spirit last night and caused us problems. Certainly one of the best sides down at Withdean this season for sure.

Good luck & hope you stay up !!!

I went to both games as well and have to agree. If I was a Daggers fan I would be very agrieved at getting 0 points from 6 (but obvioulsy I'm pleased we got 6)

Definitely one of if not the best attacking team to play at Withdean this year, but as someone mentioned above, the defending from set plays let you down. From memory Calderon's and Barnes' goals were both from being unmarked about 5 yards from goal at a corner. If they can sort that out then they will stay up no trouble. The pace and skill of Akinde, Green and Nurse was brilliant to watch.

Just the fact that they came here and tried to win the bloody game was a good starting point. I know they need points but plenty of teams in similar positions have not had the attacking intent they did.

Their attacking set pieces were bloody frightening and they looked miles better than teams much higher up the league than them. Sincerely hope they stop up - to be where they are with their budget is some effort already.
