The injury situation looks grim, so expecting a number of players to miss the game, so not sure what to expect from us today.

If Dion and Hill are out then I think we have to change shape. I'd also drop RGC and Morias.

Dion playing which is great news, Umerah up front instead of Grego-Cox.

I am not finding any commentary at BBC Sport, nor either club with an audio feed.

Post if I am missing something.

No mate.
We're still shit

Ouch. Relegation form if we can't beat Maidenhead.

The continuous use of Morias up front is madness.
Our throw ins consist of a hopeful air ball in to the box that invariably gets headed back out.
Akinola always receives the ball with his back to the oppositions goal ( give him a ball to run on to FFS, so he can run at defenders.
Justham's becoming a flapper at crosses.
Akinola was my motm but he has to beat 5 players to get to the box, so no surprise there.

Whatever the fkuc they do on the training ground it needs a serious rethink or a change of manager with more ideas.

Garbage.

A game we should have won comfortably, Dion was was good as usual but thought Akinola was excellent and just hope his injury at the end was not as bad as it looked.

Another game without a win, 6 and counting and the worse thing is 1 cleans sheet in 33 games. Thought we played quite well but created little. EJ bailing us out yet again or it could have been much worse, did there keeper have to make a save? Two tough home games, Sutton beaten by Boston so the easier game.

It is worrying that a) we've played largely well without winning again and b) despite playing well we could have lost as the opponent had two decent chances.

When we're on top we need to be more clinical. We constantly mess up the final pass or miss the target with our finishes. Rendall and Dion should both have scored today, and so should Phipps before Umerah bailed him out.

The reason we lose in my oppion is becasue we are playing with only 10 men from the start, Streves is going to end up losing his job with his continued use of Morias. Yet again he offered nothing but played almost the full 90, I think the players warming up at half time ran more than him! Stephenson looked bright, if a ;tt;e rusty when he came on. Dion had a great game again but receives no support from his full back going forwards. Rendall is a CB and this is clearly apparent to everyone except Strevs. The only thing he offers is a long throw which is hopfull at best. Subs came on too late, again! I thought that Rutherford looked exciting when he came one, driving at speed up the pitcht. I think if he had been put on instead of Trent he might of pulled other defenders away from Dion to give him a better chance to affect the game.
Injury list keeps getting longer and is quite worrying.

And this highlights the problem in the team. Rendall and Phipps should have scored, they should not be the ones having chances created for them. The attackers all need to be creating more chances for themselves. Still only one open-play goal from our strikers so far this season.

UMERAH OFF THE MARK TO RECOVER UNINSPIRING POINT

Reignited momentum after the interval built up to Josh Umerah's equaliser, but went no further, on a day where the Daggers could not convert territory into enough meaningful opportunities.
