crontab Problem

Hi, I wanted to redirect the output of a crontab command into a log file - instead of the standard mail cron produces. I tried this: 0 * * * * root /directory/command > /logdirectory/filename-`date +%d-%m-%Y-%T` but when the command is executed I still get a mail and the file is not written. The mail looks like this: /bin/sh: -c line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``' /bin/sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file what is wrong here?
