Nor were any of the meetings in these notes held under Boris
I wonder whether the foreign secretary at the time was involved in any of the meetings.

Re: Players under contract for next season

I really don't understand why everyone loves Turley? Only been at the club 11 months and has been injured for most of that. No way should he have got a two year deal in the summer.

Re: Bring back Russell Slade

Not sure we need to go back to Slade, there are plenty of experienced managers around and I'd take someone who's had previous success at league 2 level. Paul Tisdale has been successful and I think he would be interested in the project of building Orient up over a few years. If he wanted the job th...

Re: Queens Park

Being forced out Hampden by the SFA pretty much left going professional as the only option, especially with the threat of relegation from the SFL.

Re: Fletcher SACKED, so to speak.

I think any experienced manager would be able to win over the coaches. As most of them have to do it when they go to a new club. Fletcher not being used to being the man in charge probably hasn't helped him.

Re: Remember Armand Gnanduillet ?

He was only at the club what 3 years ago? It's hardly a stretch to remember him, although apparently some have forgotten he played up front.

How many coaches follow a manager around at lower league level?

Pretty sure it's much rarer than people are making it out to be.

Don't know why everyone is so bothered about the bookies. A £20 bet is going to swing someone right up to the top of the odds.

Re: Coulson and Happe

Northampton spent most of the game lumping long balls into our box. Which suited all three centre backs we had on the pitch.

Ekpiteta didn't have a winger run at him all game, today wasn't proof he can play right back.
