Independent Leyton Orient Forum

https://x.com/KieranMaguire/status/1918015017741406382/photo/1 Anybody else spot that Kieron Maguire posted on Twitter about the new owners putting £24.3 million straight into the new parent company, although while I admittedly dont really get how that works, I dont read that as 24m, I read it as 24...

Saw something someone posted on Facebook that was on companies house for Leyton Orient Football Club Limited and the issuing of shares for repayment of something like 22 million to Eagle Investments 2017 Limited, so suspect a deal is very close, I'd love to see what Kent said in the Burnley programm...

Rumour was he walked out of training on the Friday before Blackpool away, was discussed on another thread - viewtopic.php?t=15178

Tbh this is one of the first places I go when rumours are flying so I'm surprised I've not seen this earlier, but it was rumoured he stormed out of training last Friday which led to him being left of the squad against Blackpool, I've only seen it on X/Twitter so took it with a pinch of salt as a lot...

not long done mine as it happens - used this foil/bubble wrap type insulation, apologies but not sure what its actually called and then we just plasterboarded over the top, my office was one of those wooden, corner summerhouses and you could often see gaps in between the joins where air would escape...

Didnt the ACV (Asset of Community Value) prevent the ground from being used as anything other than a sporting venue? and how long do those things last anyway?

Drapers should be within LBWF as Norlington School used it for Games for my last few years there (early 90s), after no longer being able to use Ive Farm - dont know where they go now since Drapers was converted

Any rumours on whom the investors are? Was widely rumoured on X/Twitter and other board when news of the Exclusivity Agreement broke (probably on this board somewhere as well) Main Rumour I've seen is a guy called David Gandler, CEO of FUBO TV, he has a sports investment group that previously owned...

Other board reckon it’s David Gandler nailed on. Doesn’t ring true he’s not that wealthy! allegedly David Gandler has an estimated net worth of at least $43.9 million*, as of Feb. 12, 2025 So yes, not wealthy enough to fund a new stadium, but considerably higher net worth than current owners, and a...

From that list and I dont know about his injury record but i'd be tempted to look at Jordy Hiwula, 47 goals and 19 assists in league one across his career, main position is centre forward but can play either wing, was previously at Doncaster but not sure if it was when Wellens was there

change the filter to specifically show Centre Forwards, and your last comment has a few words in different places...i.e. loads of sh*t forwards

So what’s taking so long with an official announcement ? Number of potential reasons... 1. Not happening 2. Never was happening 3. Waiting on departures from our side 4. Trying to sort out documentation / registration before announcing 5. Issue with medical 6. Other club swooped in and gazumped us ...

In this crazy world of who a footballer follows or unfollows on social media, determines their transfer moves - Jamie Donley now follows Noah Phillips, Zech Obiero, Sonny Perkins, and the club official account on Instagram - apparently (according to young'uns) this means its a done deal - who knows?

knowing QPR they'll probably give him another deal so we HAVE to pay

Latest Twitter/X Updates suggest that Jamie Donley has signed a new 4 year deal at Tottenham until 2028 and will head out on loan to Leyton Orient for the season!

nah, just smashing us up instead...awesome

Think i'll stick to Sky for this one, unless theres some full body armour knocking about

Definitely think Donley would be a useful addition - im more interested to see we are interested in their keeper, if true that says a lot about our current options

also a certain ex-Orient keeper (Dean Brill) is their academy goalkeeping coach

Would be a pretty raw bunch of options after Agyei and Kelman, but we need the numbers. That'd leave another midfielder for the attacking midfielder role and potentially another fullback? Can't figure out how we're going to bring our wingers back into the team in the new set up, our squad doesn't f...

Trialists are Louie Watson and Matt Penney according to Twitter. No idea about third. Few people saying the third was Djavan Anderson from Oxford - came through Ajax's academy and played for Lazio prior to joining them, it looks like it could have been him but as he was mostly over the other side o...

7 goals in 75 games Lets not forget Jay Simpson had scored 1 goal in 21 appearances for Buriram United in Thailand before joining Orient the first time, and then went on to score 6 goals in 57 appearances since (including a second stint at Orient) He scored 2 goals in 20 appearances for Nea Salamin...

I think Harry Smith will wear 9, as all the players seemed to be wearing their numbers, with the exception of the young players who were all given random shirts, young Daniel Ekruma (apologies if thats spelt wrong) wore 9 on Tuesday night Sotiriou wore 20 (same as last season) Pratley wore 18, Wood ...

Seeing as the name directly above that in the same coloured text is Alex Lawless, and Brian Saah above him, you'll find that is the academy staff, and as such its probably not 'Doyle' but 'Boyle'

Scott Boyle - Youth Development Lead Coach (U13-14)

Paul Smyth and Ryan Allsop are the two main rumours floating about. Seen a few suspect lazy links to Oli Hawkins, due to the Jackett connection I guess, been a few posts about people getting excited over the possible return of Moses Odubajo after he liked the post about Beckles signing and then when...
