VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
AFC Wimbledon manager Terry Brown told BBC London 94.9:
"It was a must win game today, it didn't matter about the performance, didn't matter about anything other than gaining our first three home points for a matter of time.
"It puts a gap now between us, Plymouth and Dagenham of 10 points and at this point in the season it is a massive boost for us.
"It was never a day to relax, it was a day of 100% nerves and it was a matter of who kept their nerve.
"Dagenham could have easily won the game today - they had a fantastic chance
"You have to say how good the fans were, they stayed with us and the points were for them today. "
