Swansea at home, could be a tricky one to navigate as they'll be well up for it and fair play to them.
Dagenham play incredibly boring football :pQuote:

The style of football Dagenham try to play is the reason they got relegated.Quote:

Was that the cup game we won at our ground, or the league match at ours? The thing is, we suited long ball because we had 2 strikers who had pace and would hassle. We lost both of them, therefore needed a new style but John Still didn't change the style :/.
I couldn't care what football we play as long as we win! I think league 1 was too much of a challenge for us, I mean, playing southampton, sheff weds, huddersfield, brighton, swindon. We need to have 2 or 3 good seasons in league 2, get money and a better stadium then try to get promoted!
League game. Can't remember if we lost or drew - it was just horrible.Quote:

Orient also have a tough time in League Two - we have a superb manager though. Our annual wage AND transfer budget is about £1.6 million - many teams in League One have a £20 million budget - and we finished seventh. We are also fortunate that our chairman pays off about £700k-£1m a year - and has done for sixteen years. Well he didn't this year due to our superb cup run.
Disgraceful when you look at the big Premiership teams. When Arsenal played us at ours (first cup game which we scored a goal in the last few minutes), one of their directors said that not a single player who played against us was on LESS than £1.6m a year - our annual budget for the entire squad+transfers.
It was a joke aint it? I work over Dagenham anyway so I get paid to watch them on home games, but it annoys me travelling all the way to bloody Carlisle to loose (even though we won ^_^) losing away games are sad.Quote:
