Coley out.

Don't be so damn supercilious. At least Coley admits in his post-match comments that Daggers were unlucky and "battered us for 15 minutes" after the first goal. Just glad he isn't as one eyed as some of you on here!

I concur, bloody awful result, why couldn't they let Daggers score 1 goal right at the end, Stanley screwed up my perfect day today

From my viewpoint......3-0 was highly flattering for Stanley

I agree with the points made by both Coley & others without " red tinted spectacles " that we rode our luck at 1-0 up. There was one instance at 1-0 up where I was dumfounded that Daggers didn't level. Probably one of the best examples of a "goalmouth scramble" that we've ended up on the right side of for quite a while !!!

Dagenham have to be one of the poorest sides I've seen at the Crown for a while now....and that's discounting when we properly "steamrollered" sides last season and more to the point,sides that we beat comfortably in preceeding seasons.

We lack a cutting edge and killer instinct that we had last season....

The game yesterday was on a knife edge up until the second goal....after that, You could see their heads drop (understandably so as that meant eight straight defeats for them )

I'm still non-plussed by the formation...call me too critical, but they were woefull at the back yesterday !!! Admittedly 3 goals, but that, If ever I saw one, was a side there for the taking !!! Two up front and we'd have probably got six...as they were one of the worst defences I've seen at the Crown for years !!!!

My concerns about us coming up against big " Exodus" were unfounded....the bloke spent the majority of his time running about warming up in front of me and chatting to another sub!!!

Fair enough...well chuffed for Padraig Amond and quite pleased that the two goals finished them off, lowered my tension, got the three points, blah,blah,blah, but to me any talk of play offs ( and better ) is quite ludicrous !!!

God knows, I'd love us to be up in the mix again this season, but without a resounding improvement, there's no way that would that happen !!! I did not / do not expect it to happen ( although it would be fabulous if we could climb up to those dizzy heights again!!) although what I'm about to say now may be deemed as pessimistic!!!

23 points now...ten clear of the drop... another 30 points as soon as possible and I'll be happy

We've lost half of that fabulous side of last term....mid table mediocrity would be perfectly palatable for me....anything after that would be miraculous!!!

Although with Coley and Bell at the helm... anything is possible!!!

Enjoyed the game yesterday,which was played in tricky conditions.
The playing surface was quality despite the rain,so well done to those in charge.
The game went more or less the way we thought( i pedicted 3-0 lol).
They arent a bad side,and on paper,will give most teams a good game,the difference at the moment is "confidence".
We have had that drawing games,they are now on a losing run.
After playing extra time on thursday,i waited for them to tire and run out of steam,and they didnt disappoint.
Acci did the basics well,ie defending and closing down,they were negative upto the goal,despite there cf cunnington being a real handful for Longy.
When we scored they pushed men forward and opened the game up(like we did at Macc),but didnt take there chances.
This in turn created space for people like micah to influence the game,which he did.
Un-sung hero today was proccy.Although he was playing in the three,he was everywhere,both in getting forward,and breaking up play,this sometimes goes un-noticed(could be getting back to his best).
This graft allows others to play.
Cant agree about some comments on stockley,i thought he had a good game,and some of his movement wasnt rewarded,he also give us a physical presence.
Three points in the bag and we move on
