ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger is putting his money on Lincoln City winning the National League and Forest Green will have to put in a monumental effort to catch the Imps now.

Six points ahead, a game in hand on Rovers, Lincoln are in the driving seat. Losing 5-0 at the Emirates in the FA Cup quarter-final, the Cowley brothers can now concentrate on the league. We may yet see a few twists and turns and with eleven games to go Mark Cooper is not giving up hope of automatic promotion.

Two mistakes and too many players off-form cost  Rovers at promotion rivals Dagenham & Redbridge.

The Essex boys attacked down the flanks, where we were always vulnerable and they deserved their victory.

After a first-half as drab as the location, manager Mark moved an out of sorts Darren Carter just behind the strikers -  a role in which he did not excel.

Kaiyne Woolery's first-half miss proved to be pivotal.

Full credit to the manager for three spot-on substitions as Rovers looked to find parity after leaking an awful goal.

In-form striker Christian Doidge gave Rovers' large and vocal following hope, when he nodded in a Liam Noble cross with nine minutes to go.

However, just when a point seemed secured, sub Marcus Kelly gave away a needless free-kick and Scott Doe pounced for a 90th-minute winner.

Rovers will want to quickly move on and put things right on Sutton's plastic pitch on Tuesday.
