Dagenham boss Wayne Burnett would not be pressed on his side's play-off chances after an impressive 2-1 away win at Bristol Rovers. A goal in each half from striker Adebayo Azeez halted Rovers' recent revival after the hosts had gone ahead through John-Joe O'Toole's 15th goal of the season. Burnett was delighted with his team's efforts, but coy about their chances of a top-seven finish. "Win our game in hand and we are only a few points off the play-offs, so we have to think about them," said Burnett, whose side are six points behind seventh-placed Southend. "But it's the sort of league where if you lose three on the trot you can find yourself in trouble. Suddenly our away form is better than our home form and we need to address that. "At the start of the season we were odds on favourites to be relegated so I am delighted where we are with a young group who are learning all the time. "Adebayo Azeez works so hard for any success he achieves. He took his goals well and I felt we controlled the game for much of the time. "Rovers have been in excellent form so it is a terrific result for us."
