Career

Tranmere Rovers

Dagnall was born in Liverpool and played for Tranmere Rovers from the age of 13 as a trainee. On 13 September 2003, at the age of 17, he was included in a matchday squad for the first time by manager Ray Mathias, coming on as a late substitute for Ryan Taylor in a goalless Second Division match against Peterborough United at Prenton Park, and had a 20-yard shot saved by their goalkeeper Mark Tyler. [3] He went on to make 10 league appearances and one League Cup appearance, and scored his first career goal by equalising in a 3–1 away defeat to Luton Town on 6 October. [4] Tranmere narrowly missed out on the play-offs, finishing in eighth place.

He started the next season on 10 August 2004 by scoring his first Prenton Park goal in a 2–1 home win against Hartlepool United, where he was shown a second yellow card and was sent off for jumping into the crowd. [5] He began to score more frequently finishing the season with six goals, with Tranmere winning every game in which he scored. [6] Tranmere finished the season in third place, however they lost to Hartlepool in the play-offs.

He made several appearances at the start of the following season including his FA Cup debut which was a 2–1 loss away to future club Bradford City. On 13 January 2006 he went on loan to Rochdale of League Two, originally on a temporary basis. [7] He spent the rest of the season at Spotland and scored three goals in 21 appearances, including a last-minute equaliser for a 1–1 draw at Rushden & Diamonds on 15 April. [8] [9]

Rochdale

In July 2006, Rochdale made the move permanent for an initial fee of £25,000, with manager Steve Parkin seeing Dagnall as a replacement for top scorer Grant Holt, who had signed for Nottingham Forest for £300,000. [10] He made his second debut for Rochdale in a 1–0 loss at home to Walsall, coming on as a late substitute. [11] He scored regularly for Rochdale including braces against Boston United, Wrexham and Peterborough. [12] He scored his first hat-trick in a 5–0 win at Spotland against Macclesfield Town on 21 April 2007. [13] He ended the season with 17 league goals, finishing joint fourth top scorer in the league. [14]

In the following season he received an injury after playing just eight games, which led to a lengthy lay-off. He did not play from September 2007 until March 2008, where he marked his return with a hat-trick in a 4–1 win against Rotherham United in his first game back. [15] In May, he scored in three consecutive games which included a draw at home to Shrewsbury, and in both play-off semi-final legs against Darlington, losing the first game and winning the second a week later. The tie went to penalties which Rochdale won 5–4. [16] However Rochdale lost 3–2 in the final at Wembley to Stockport County. [17] He finished the season with nine league goals, despite only playing 17 games.

His first goal of the 2008–09 season came in a 3–1 home win against Barnet. [18] On 21 October 2008 he scored his third career hat-trick in a 6–1 home win against Chester. [19] On 3 March 2009 Dagnall received the second red card of his career, coming in a 2–1 away defeat to Barnet. [20] He finished the season with 10 goals, helping Rochdale to another play-off semi-final, where they were beaten by Gillingham. [21]

Dagnall scored six goals in the first 10 league games at the start of the 2009–10 season, including a brace against Torquay United on 12 September 2009. [22] On 27 March 2010 he scored another hat-trick, this time in a 4–1 win against Grimsby Town. [23] On 17 April 2010 Rochdale beat Northampton Town 1–0 at home to secure their first promotion for 41 years. [24] He finished the season with 20 goals, his highest ever total. [25]

[27] His first Scunthorpe goals came in the League Cup second round as he scored two goals in a 4–2 win against Sheffield Wednesday on 24 August. [28] His first league goals came two weeks later as he again scored twice, this time in a 4–0 away win against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane. [29] His three other goals in his first season with Scunthorpe came in wins against Preston, Burnley and Nottingham Forest. [30] Scunthorpe were relegated at the end of the season, finishing bottom of the Championship.

He stayed with Scunthorpe as they started the season in League One, and scored his first goal of the season in a 2–0 League Cup away win against Accrington Stanley on 9 August 2011. [31] He followed this up with a goal against Oldham Athletic a week later. [32] In the next round of the League Cup, he scored against Premier League side Newcastle United, as his team lost 2–1 after extra time at Glanford Park. [33] In October, he scored in back-to-back games in the space of four days, in a 2–2 draw against Huddersfield and a 4–2 win against former club Tranmere. [34] [35] His final game was a 2–1 away win against Hartlepool on 2 January 2012. [36]
