(1) 2 DARREN CURRIE saluted retiring BARNET boss John Still after Shaq Coulthirst’s goal brought DAGENHAM down to earth.

Still, 68, decided last week to take up a head of football role at The Hive after 42 years and 2,000plus games as gaffer, having led three clubs into the Football League.

Interim manager Currie said: “I respect the man immensely for what he’s done in his career and he was the first on the phone supporting me.”

The Daggers, who recently beat title chargers Salford and Orient, were undone by Coulthirst’s effort and boss Peter Taylor said: “Barnet were better than us in the first half.”

LEYTON ORIENT face Dagenham tomorrow as league leaders and after a goalless draw with DOVER, boss Justin Edinburgh said: “It’s been a brilliant year. We have come a long way in a short space of time.”

Paul Rutherford fired WREXHAM to within a point of the O’s with the winner against SOLIHULL MOORS in front of another healthy 6,220 home gate.

Dragons boss Graham Barrow said: “It was great to win 5-1 the other day against Salford but Solihull are a team that don’t go away and while their style is not my cup of tea, they are good at it.”

Two-goal Danny Rowe missed one penalty but then scored from another in stoppage time to push FYLDE into third spot with a 2-1 win at HARROGATE.
