Title: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 09:53:58 Anyone else going, can't see us taking too many.
How far is the ground from the tube station? Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 10:10:03 It's about a 15 minute walk (Dagenham East IIRC)
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 10:14:38 I'm going because I can, but I'm not looking forward to it. If we hoof it again we'll get beat.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Benzel on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 10:32:46 Finish work at 5 so there's no way I'll make it. I heard there's gonna be a fair number of West Ham fans going.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 12:42:45 It's about a 15 minute walk (Dagenham East IIRC) Cheers, not too bad then. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 13:55:21 I'm going. Not really worked out any plans re: pubs etc, but IIRC they had a decent bar underneath the away end? Can't see it being too busy, being so far east and on a weeknight, so might go for that pre-match
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: No Longer Posh Red on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 14:09:11 Yep, we are going.
Closer than a home game, and it's still school holidays so sprog doesn't have to get his arse out of bed the following morning. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 15:24:21 I'm thinking of driving to this. I guess M25 J30, then A13? Can you park near the ground or is it all permit parking?

Limited parking at the ground..seems to be plenty of street parking nearby. It is always busy round junction 30...give yourself plenty of time. Says on here junction 31 and A13.

SHAUN TAYLOR on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 16:09:24 I'm going. Not really worked out any plans re: pubs etc, but IIRC they had a decent bar underneath the away end? Can't see it being too busy, being so far east and on a weeknight, so might go for that pre-match You can even go in the supporters club. There were loads of Town fans in there last year.Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 17:49:08 I'm probably going to this and taking 2 maybe 3 extras. Assume you can pay on the gate right?
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Panda Paws on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 17:51:01 I'm going...could be one of these surprise big followings. Summer holidays evening kick off in London, will always attract a few.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Samdy Gray on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 17:51:45 Wish I was going, but I'm working, it's a weeknight and it's my birthday.
On that basis, I'm out. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Coca Fola on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 18:19:20 Yep will be going. How many have we sold?
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: leefer on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 19:40:00 4 adults,2 oap's and one disabled.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 19:41:39 I'm working till 6 so for the first time this season I'm planning on using BBC radio & TEF to keep me updated!

WOW Thats some achievement Well done Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, August 14, 2011, 21:22:54 I'm probably going to this and taking 2 maybe 3 extras. Assume you can pay on the gate right? We have 1100 tickets so should be fine to pay on the night. That's my plan anyway!Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Monday, August 15, 2011, 18:09:00 Ok cool.
I'm still debating this one! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Monday, August 15, 2011, 18:11:31 As mentioned in another thread, Dave (the Jock in the ticket office) reckons 500 tops. Depends how many Hammers decide to sit in the away end! I got my ticket, just in case.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: corner on Monday, August 15, 2011, 18:54:10 Daggers fans seem to think they will get dicked so lets hope their right and get back to winning ways.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, August 15, 2011, 19:22:38 Crossrail would come into its element for this fixture. Midweek in East London is a bit of a nightmare at the moment.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: lambourn red on Monday, August 15, 2011, 20:12:37 We have 1100 tickets so should be fine to pay on the night. That's my plan anyway! I hope so I am going and taking 3 others with me including a Real Madrid season ticket holder the last game he went to was Real vs Barca last night , I have pointed out that Daggers ground or the football on show is going to be nothing like he has ever encountered before but he is mad keen wants me to bring a scarf along. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Arch Stanton on Monday, August 15, 2011, 20:17:54 I hope so I am going and taking 3 others with me including a Real Madrid season ticket holder the last game he went to was Real vs Barca last night , I have pointed out that Daggers ground or the football on show is going to be nothing like he has ever encountered before but he is mad keen wants me to bring a scarf along. Thats ace, make sure you tell him every chance you get that this is proper football he's watching... none of this La Liga fancy pants shite... :D Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Batch on Monday, August 15, 2011, 20:41:42 I hope so I am going and taking 3 others with me including a Real Madrid season ticket holder the last game he went to was Real vs Barca last night , I have pointed out that Daggers ground or the football on show is going to be nothing like he has ever encountered before but he is mad keen wants me to bring a scarf along. Shame he's not around for a proper derby on Sunday.

Depends how many Hammers decide to sit in the away end! I got my ticket, just in case. His name is jockanory.....have some respect! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Monday, August 15, 2011, 21:43:04 His name is jockanory.....have some respect! Apologies to jockanory for call calling him Dave. I hope it didn't cause any offence. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 08:11:34 We have 1100 tickets so should be fine to pay on the night. That's my plan anyway! My plan has backfired - due to the weather, my additions may now not attend! Glad I didn't buy tickets in advance! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: tans on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 08:14:29 bloody fair weather supporters
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 08:16:40 Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 09:18:02 Just to let you all know, I have just seen that the District line is closed between Barking and Upminster, and Dagenham is between Barking and Upminster! Don't know if it will be closed all day, I hope not!
Just trying to work out another way of getting there. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 09:22:30 It was only scheduled to be suspended between Edgeware and Kensington so hopefully it will be up and running later!
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 09:25:18 Yeh hopefully, but it says due to emergency engineering works, so who knows! Getting there otherwise is a bit of a bastard.
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: juddie on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 09:36:00 I'm driving from richmond if anybody wants to join me...
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:03:09 My plan has backfired - due to the weather, my additions may now not attend! Glad I didn't buy tickets in advance! I hope none of them are male, as that would be a ridiculous reason not to go! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: london_red on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:06:53 Just to let you all know, I have just seen that the District line is closed between Barking and Upminster, and Dagenham is between Barking and Upminster! Don't know if it will be closed all day, I hope not! Just trying to work out another way of getting there. Cheers for the heads up Langers. Looks like it's going to be a massive pain getting there if that stays closed. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:08:26 Yep, looks like we would have to get a bus, which I really dont fancy, you going from East Croydon?
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: reeves4england on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:10:04 Thanks for the heads up. Will have to keep an eye on that one!
Edit: Just checked TfL and that line seems to have reopened, so hopefully will be back to normal by tonight Quote Severe delays are occurring between Barking and Upminster due to earlier emergency engineering work. Tickets will be accepted on local buses and C2C trains. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:14:28 I hope none of them are male, as that would be a ridiculous reason not to go! Nope, female! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: london_red on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:14:49 Yep, looks like we would have to get a bus, which I really dont fancy, you going from East Croydon? Yeah bus from Barking looks like plan b. Not going from East Croydon no, I work up in West Hampstead so will be going straight down from there. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:25:07 Nope, female! Weather's supposed to be dry this evening! Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Langers on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:30:09 Yeah bus from Barking looks like plan b. Not going from East Croydon no, I work up in West Hampstead so will be going straight down from there. Ah ok, fair enough. That was what I was intending to if the tube is still fucked. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Luci on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:31:16 Weather's supposed to be dry this evening! haha their loss then! :) Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: LucienSanchez on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:32:50 Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: THE FLASH on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 10:34:00 Good luck tonight.

Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: otanswell on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 11:10:05 Not had much luck reaching games this season, missed crews with a hangover and stuck in traffic soapy tit wank
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: london_red on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 11:29:26 Thankfully it looks like the tube is back up and running. Result. I'll be in the supporters club at the ground about 6 then if anyone wants to buy me a pint... Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: RedOx on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 12:30:44 Thankfully it looks like the tube is back up and running. Phew! Didn't fancy busing it from Barking! Supporters club at 6.30ish then. Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Gnasher on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 12:38:28 I'm sat here thinking when to leave and whether to go M25 clockwise or anti-clockwise (less roadworks anti-cw!). Is there much to do in Dagenham other than drink and knock up Stacey Solomon?
Title: Re: Dagenham Away Post by: Fred Elliot on Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 13:15:57 I'm sat here thinking when to leave and whether to go M25 clockwise or anti-clockwise (less roadworks anti-cw!). Is there much to do in Dagenham other than drink and knock up Stacey Solomon? I am currently in Stanstead (work I'm afraid !) and I confirm that the roadworks on the M25 between 19 and 22 are fucking awful today Avoid like the plague |
