www.oufc.co.uk/news/article/00180314-london-calling-1428161.aspxWe've had some decent days out in London over the years, so who's ready for another? Personally I'll be heading to this one on the train, hoping to see a packed Hamilton Hall at 11am! The pub will be rocking so an ideal place to have a few drinks and soak up the pre-match atmosphere. The Yellow Army invading Dagenham by car or coach shouldn't feel left out either, as closer to kick off we'll be heading for the Dagenham Social Club. Dagenham's away end is one of the better ones in League 2 since they've built a new stand for away fans, so we should be able to make a lot of noise, and hopefully travel in big numbers. Whatever happens on the pitch, it should be a cracking day out.

Hope you have checked with the Hamilton Hall if they are willing to deal with a large following on this day, as they have experienced problems with football supporters in the past Other fixtures that may have an affect on your plans are Leyton Orient v Bradford 3pm ko Arsenal v Man City 17.30 ko Both Orient & Arsenal fans have used the Hamilton Hall in the past
The Underground don't have any engineering works planned around Liverpool St, Aldgate,Tower Bridge or on the route towards Dagenham East

This away day looks like perfect timing. As it will be the first Saturday game for the new manager, a lot will now travel. I got my tickets last night, as I think we may sell the 1,200 allocation now.
I am looking forward to meeting up in a pub in London, full of Oxford fans.
Bring on Dagenham!!

Considering Waddock only watched training on Sunday, and took over training after Southend, I'd expect to see a different Oxford United on Saturday.
This is where our season restarts. I am really looking forward to it. It's Gary Waddocks first real game in charge, so I hope we take a big following to Dagenham.

I'd like to think that was true Joe, but Gary Waddock's is Head Coach, not a miracle worker. Good day out though, especially if there's no expectation!

www.oufc.co.uk/news/article/00270214-yellow-army-london-calling-1449147.aspxGary Waddock wants your support at Dagenham New Head Coach Gary Waddock has called for United fans to get behind the Yellow Army Away Day on Saturday - and the team for the rest of the season. U's fans are being encouraged to meet up at a London pub before the Sky Bet League 2 match at Dagenham and Redbridge to make a day of it, as part of 'London Calling: The Yellow Army Big London Day Out'. Gary said: "The welcome the travelling Yellow Army gave me at Southend was fantastic and when I watched the Hartlepool game as a spectator I was really impressed with how our crowd got behind the team and lifted the players. "It does make such a difference, and I urge all Oxford supporters to give it their utmost for the remaining games of the season. "If we’re all in it together, we’ve got a better chance of succeeding together. I met with the Yellow Army on Sunday, and heard about the special effort being made for the Dagenham game, and I wholeheartedly back that effort. "I want the players to see yellow everywhere when we come out of the tunnel on Saturday." United fans are welcome to gather at the Hamilton Hall pub at Liverpool Street Station from 11am, before heading to the social club at Dagenham & Redbridge's ground prior to the match. It is hoped United fans from all over the country will come together and share a drink at Hamilton Hall before the march to cheer the team on, to make it an away day to remember. The away day effort forms part of the Yellow's Army mission to improve the match day experience at United games. Joe Nicholls, of the Yellow Army, said: "Saturday is all about getting together and having a good day out as Oxford fans together. "The flags looked fantastic at Southend and we're hoping to have another decent display at Dagenham when the teams run out to really back Gary and the team for the big final push. "I'm really looking forward to meeting fellow Yellows at the Hamilton Hall." Matt Organ, of the Yellow Army, said: "The best away games are usually when the fans get together and make a day of it. "The team are still in the mix for promotion and we can play our part by getting behind them." Tickets are on sale now. You can book yours by calling the Oxford United ticket office on 01865 337533 or via www.oufctickets.co.uk You can also pay on the day. Prices are £18.50 for adults, £13 for over 65s and students, and £11 for children aged 10-16. Under 10s can attend for free.

Our fans made today what it was. Fair play before and during the game.
The players owe us after that.

Anybody take any videos of the day? The Met might have done if this post from rosiebums in the Jake Wright thread is accurate: And the homophobic abuse shouted at some lads on a stag do at the Hamilton Hall pub today. And they wondered why the police got involved.
