Wasn't it only a tenner for adults to get in?

£15 for adults, £8 for u16's although the old fashioned wooden seating and steps in the main stand is designed for the size of people in Victorian times! - basically they squeeze 4 seats in to 3 spaces.
Good turn out of just over 30,000 and the Daggers fans had a great day out - just a shame their formation was pretty much 7-3-0 for a lot of the game. Everton did enough and had loads of possession (74%), but I think if we had played them and gone for it like we can do we would have scored a couple - might have let 5 in the other end but it least it would have been exciting!

How many did Dagenham take? With the distance I'd have said we would have taken double. Ah well, next season eh? :roll:

1800 Daggers, they opened the upper tier for a few extra.

Good effort coming all the way from Essex. Think we only took about 1200 to Ipswich but Everton is a bigger draw.

I hope the 15 Daggers fans that travelled up to The Globe on a wet and windy Tuesday night enjoyed themselves. They're the ones that deserve to, not the bandwagon fans showing up for a big game chanting 'Dagenham 'til I die' etc.

It would have been a different draw if we'd got through. Could have drawn anyone.

Differing opinions on that

Dagenham or Whitehawk have drawn Everton away. Just to rub it in there are a number of League 2 v Prem ties.


I think Morecambe, Dagenham or Whitehawk would have been ball 63 in round three regardless.

For the 20 sides sides qualifying from round two (ball numbers 45-64, League One and lower), numbers are allocated based on the position of ties in the previous round; it isn't allocated alphabetically for such entrants. As Morecambe or Dagenham vs Whitehawk was the penultimate tie drawn in round two, the winner was always going to be ball 63 from 64 - in fact sides playing in round 2 should be able to work out their potential round three number as soon as the second round draw is complete.

Sides who qualify automatically (Premiership and Championship sides) for round three are allocated numbers 1-44 on a alphabetical basis.

All of this means that if Morecambe weren't complete bottle jobs, we would have played Everton away, made a fortune and given the fans a day to remember.

No, apparently not. Someone explained it before the 3rd Round Draw.

Carlisle or Yeovil get to play Everton in next round.
Quite a few other L2 or lower teams have tasty chances as well.
Oxford could play Blackburn,
Northampton Chelsea
Portsmouth Bournemouth
Wycombe Man City
Eastleigh Leeds
Exeter West Ham

Nice to concentrate on the League though :(
