Re: Lincoln’s Collins

Didn't he just sign from Derby?

Orient were apparently interested.

Looks like for the 3rd Kelman and Brown goaded the Lincoln fans at the end too

Re: Donley, 12 clubs were in, plus other ML bits

I thought Mr Ling answered surprisingly thoroughly and a really good listen. eg potential targets ongoing discussions and a little frustration with the negative pr on chigwell school. Good timing for him with the interview - albeit the good form now adding to Kelman/Keeley price tag ie not freebies....

Kelman looks really happy to be back and a character as part of the group - think we are going to see a more mature pro this year.

Re: Kent Teague

Given he has been on podcast (April Orient Hour) fairly recently sounding very much engaged, it may be that his holding has diluted to allow others to further invest/share losses?

Re: El miz official

Makes sense for him to have a full season starting role in Championship chance of international squad and still pretty easy to get to and from Paris. As much as he liked orient its probably a more compelling offer and platform

Re: El Miz out for the season

What 2 fantastic loan spells. Added such grit to the middle of the park and so many important recoveries. Really thrived working with Pratley. Not often you see a loan player as captain - and the 81 starts shows how core he has been to the side. Clearly likes the club and management team and sees hi...
