The last time I started a thread we won! A sentence that Del would love to be able to write. Sadly, ... |

D&R are the first side we're meeting for the second time in this league campaign, having won 2-0 at GGL in late September. I thought they were one of the more impressive teams we've played so far, not particularly pretty to watch but well organised. Their recent form though has been patchy, with four defeats in their last five games, including a 3-0 loss at Fylde on Saturday. But the previous weekend they thumped Aldershot 6-1 at Victoria Road.
My recommended pub is the Eastbrook (Dagenham Rd / Rainham Rd South crossroads, RM10 7UP), a Grade II* listed building from the 1930s with some lovely wood panelling in the main bar. It's a no-frills boozer, frequented by football fans, usually with a couple of ales on. It's just over five minutes on foot from the ground (which you'd pass on your left if walking to the pub from Dagenham East tube).

In fact I will be disappointed if we don’t come back without a point or three. |

No matter what game I've gone to see for us this season, I've not gone with any expectation or resignation of a defeat. In 2007/8 there were many of us who were guilty of feeling that way, but this isn't the same. There's no reason to think the side is going to turn up just to lose. So I'm with Stewart on this one.

Do you think that we could kick off from the GGL end for a change, I’m not superstitious but 🤷🏼♂️, we ain’t won lately at home and I wonder why?

Maybe something to do with who wins the toss of a coin. It’s just that we seem to be unlucky with our last few home games when we’re not kicking right to left first half 🙆🏼♂️ |

I need to watch away games 😂
Well done to all. Glad our loyal followers are getting some joy on the road. These 6 pts from the 2 away games give us some hope. Now to get some home results too!
