TIME flies when you're having fun - and even when you're not.

It's hard to believe that it will be 12 months ago on Sunday that we won the Nationwide Conference title on that memorable afternoon at Woking.

A lot has happened since then. It feels like we've had four seasons in one with selling our best players, the Football League hearing, being top of the league and now around the bottom of it.

It's been a frustrating season and there's a long way to go yet. I still think we need six points to be certain of staying up.

And all of that conspires to consign April 15, 2006 to the history books. Even the trophy has left the Fraser Eagle Stadium to be handed over to Dagenham and Redbridge, who have won the Conference.

I'm pleased for them because we have some fond memories of playing down there - not least because we recorded three wins.

I look forward to, hopefully, playing them in League Two next season. And this weekend will play a massive part in making that possible. If we can beat Grimsby and Lincoln beat Wrexham we could find ourselves eight points clear of the bottom two.

The win against Peterborough was fantastic and our team spirit was at the heart of everything.

We were brought back down to earth at Hartlepool on Monday when, yet again, we had a penalty awarded against us, which happened against Walsall and Swindon as well.

We are due a big slice of luck because we certainly deserved something from Walsall and Hartlepool. Even one point in those two games would make things much healthier in the league.
