Charlton away was a cracking day. Shame about the equaliser. Remember getting down there early on the bus from working mans in broad st. Wasn't to welcome in the wetherspoons as we started singing. Got told they don't allow music in there 

Couple of memories, Basingstoke away when Dick, God bless him run on the pitch this is from Basingstoke FC's history;
"2001/02 The biggest disappointment was drawing against Conference leaders Dagenham & Redbridge in the FA Cup to a 4th minute injury time goal scored by goalkeeper Tony Roberts. Roberts went up to join the play in the dying minutes and scored with a 25 yard volley after the ‘stoke had taken a 2-0 lead. A feat that made FA Cup history and footage of which is often replayed on TV. The replay at Dagenham saw the ‘Stoke comprehensively defeated and D&R’s subsequent exploits were well documented by the media."
Going away to Carlisle in the 3rd round when they were in the old 1st divison on the charted train from Barking only to lose by the single goal
Charlton away, what a day, we were lucky enough to be with the guy who sponsored the game so got the tour of the Valley, meal before the game and seat in Directors box. Remember singing "small club from Essex" and berating Michael Grade who was a good sport.
Norwich away played 'em off the park only to go down to the single goal right at the end
Plymouth another great day and a most surreal night in a hotel in Dawlish, we didn't realise we had to dress up for dinner so were supplied with jackets and ties by the hotel, no sorry there are no photos!!!
Will not be at the game Saturday there are no buses from Thailand to Liverpool, and yes you can question my commitment Steve Mc

Dismantling Exeter at home 3-0 on TV was a good memory. Not forgetting away games in the qualifying rounds when the mighty daggers would turn up at the likes of Halsted.

That Basingstoke was stupendous!
As good as the Charlton / Ipswich games for much different reasons.
I still have my Daggers shirt from that day, torn from jumping (well, falling) over the advertising at FT to celebrate with the players!
That Exeter replay also already mentioned was special.
Forced into making a substitution early doors and literally tore them to shreds in that 1st 45.
Atmosphere was absolutely rocking that night!

That Exeter replay at home was amazing.
When Mark Stein went off with a hamstring injury after around 15 minutes I thought we were doomed.
But Junior and that lump Ken Charlery came into their own that night.
Loved the screen saver that Digger Dagger did to celebrate.

Yes one of the best assists (crosses) I have ever seen, Danny Greens at Morecambe in the play off semi to set up Benson was a peach also.

i went hunting for the screensavers, but the links don't work any more.
I did find this though, which makes me very happy.
