Have always hated the play-off's anyway.
All that stress and diarrhoea for nothing !

My TV's on the blink and I'm looking to buy a replacement , some I'm looking at are Freeview ( as the one I'm currently using ) and some are Freely , is there a difference please 🤔 , many thanks . We bought a freely TV, about £250 from Argos. Basic range of channels plus on demand , no aerial just ...

Woodstock.

Rain eased off here in Teignmouth, hopefully should be OK.

Fixture may be in doubt.
Storms here in the South West, same again tomorrow.

Elon Musk's apparent interest in Liverpool decreases following a visit to the city. He suddenly becomes aware of our success, the nearest club to the city of London, the financial hub of the UK. Using left over 'pocket money ' buys the club. Could you imagine anything as bad as that, probably be wor...

Was it Hull City we played, quite a few years back, when last game of the season needed a point to
avoid relegation ? At home went 1-0 up, and the ever dependable John Jackson dropped the ball in the net.
Seem to remember we had quite a few last season games like that .

Bromley away, 1st season in the NL, struck me as the worst.

Liverpool, correct me if I'm wrong, have not played them since we got promoted with them.

Brixham now travel to Exmouth Town, FA cup preliminary round
following their extra preliminary round win over Saltash Utd.

I can remember Dolan when we played Bristol Rovers at home, first game of the season. Lost 4-1, don't think he featured again.
Did he get sent to Canvey Island ?

Tight game, Brixham won 2-0.
Now face Exmouth Town away in the priliminary round on 17 August.

Brixham v Saltash Utd.

According to the BBC Neil Banfield assistant manager.
Another ex O whose name I've not heard for a while.

I am led to believe that the Bath City manager refused to let his player's
back onto the pitch to finish the game !

Thinking about Roger Stanislaus, sacked by Hearn for 'allegedly' taking performance enhancing drugs.
From what I remember of Stanislaus, the drugs didn't seem to work.

Remember him playing for us at Loftus Road,0-0 If I remember correctly.
The reception he received from the home fans, unfortunately only the one season
for us.
I don't know if him and Bloomfield fell out, but was sorry to see him go.

'henry' Terry Mancini's nickname.

Who heard of Harry Kane when he joined us ?

True. the other two lads from Spurs did better for us, but Kane has had the better career

Harry who ?

After 55 years following the O's, I'm just grateful that we still got a club, thinking of Bury, Oldham etc.
Thankfully we have owners who are still willing to bail out the club.

I work on the platform, earn approx £30,000 p.a. at a main line station. This includes bank holidays, Sundays still overtime. Money OK, there is overtime if you want it. Dispute is not about pay. We know jobs will go , particularly ticket office. Platform staff as well. My company offered voluntary ...

I work on a platform at busy main-line station. I earn about £30,000 a year. Which includes most Bank Holidays
and rostered Sundays. Resigned to losing my job this/next year as well as many of my colleagues in Ticket Offices.
The issue is not always about money.
