Seasons come and go but the battle remains the same for Dagenham & Redbridge FC, maintaining their hard-won Football League status while remaining a hub for the local community.
York City's victory over Stevenage on Saturday afternoon means the Daggers, whose scheduled home fixture against Carlise United was postponed with the Cumbrians in FA Cup action, are off the foot of League Two on goal difference only.
But, if any one can, John Still can with the man who took the club into league football now back at the helm for a third time.
Off the field, getting people through the gate remains a challenge, one that may get harder next season when West Ham United move into their new Olympic Stadium home.
But the community work goes on and the annual Daggers Against Racism Day will take place this year on Saturday 27 February for the visit of Yeovil Town in what is shaping up to be a crucial relegation battle.
That means terrace tickets are available for just £2.50 Adults and 50p for Concessions with Under-10's free with a paying adult.
Add in plenty of activities and entertainment and it once again is an occasion that, hopefully, lots of football fans in London can get behind.
