Very little arsing about.

Ironic really given the size of his fat backside

From “set-piece coach” to league winning manager. Maybe we were too hasty giving McMahon the heave-ho

Were Burnley really able to pay Vigs a salary much higher than a championship team where he would have had more of a chance of actually playing? It’s not like he went to Man City. Are Burnley really paying that much for their 3/4th choice GK? I find it hard to believe that there wasn’t an offer on t...

Yep, everyone's been saying this for the past 2 years.

And they’ll continue to say it for the next 10!

I guess you’ll engage with it if I was to take the mod to task? If you set up a separate thread to abuse them then I might have something to say. If you contain your abuse to within this thread then I am inclined to ignore it as I genuinely do not want to be involved in this particular discussion. ...

LSN - much like EFL officials he has an impossible job keeping peace in a sometimes heated and chaotic environment. He does an admirable job keeping law and order on here even when it can get a bit tasty. He is fair but firm when he needs to be. Considering this is a guy doing it in his spare time ...

Do you have any detailed insight about the owners of Crawley town?

Only thing that's tragic is your terrible attempts at wumming. I haven't changed anything - I can't help it if you can't read. I said they need a few hundred more on the gate but it was you that said 300 and I pointed out that they need more than that. A 1000 on average a game required to get near ...

Christ mate, let it go. What are you getting so het up about? I've already said the Sears figure being bandied about on the terraces was ridiculous. And just that, a rumour doing the rounds. I heard that he was on £2,000 per week plus an appearance fee of a kilo of Angus Beef steaks and a bonus of ...

Interesting that they decided to pour their many millions into Braintree Town rather than their local club Coggeshall Town FC. What’s the story behind that?

Hoover Attack wrote: ↑Thu May 09, 2024 9:29 pm And one of them isn’t even trying to have a row, just repeating some gossip heard on the Braintree terraces

The phrase “wealthy Coggeshall families” also made me chuckle. Isn’t there about 23 people living in Coggeshall in total?

A couple of fellas having a row online about how much money the fellas who own Braintree Town FC have is exactly the kind of off season entertainment we love!

Currently a free agent after being released by Charlton.

Worth signing him up at Orient?

Your waisting your time, tried that and no one turned up, they didn’t have the nads, they were all like you two,rather hide behind a keyboard, however if you did decide that you both had enough bottle, I’d like to be there and I would take the two of you on to gether. I don’t usually fight women bu...

History isn’t the only thing it reeks of….

What time do you usually meet up for your dust offs? Depends really. I may move them back by 45 mins so I can get a programme before kick off.

I was at the ground last night watching my great nephew playing in a tournament , I noticed all the stairways were boarded up and there were skips by the corners both ends of the stand , looks like the promised upgrades might be taking place 🤔 hopefully this work will include the bogs ☹️ How did yo...

There’s everything wrong with not protecting your assets and then expecting fans to cover your shortcomings. Orient should be selling players and reinvesting into the squad. f*** me, I love a moan as much as the next person but this is something else. Bonne came to us (on a free?) in the National L...

Bring him back home, Richie. If Simpson and Happe sign their contracts then we don't need him. If Simpson and Happe don’t sign their contracts, we still don’t need him. There’s literally no way in a million years Richie would sign Marv. Not so sure about that. Wasn’t Marvin involved in some sort of...

Bring him back home, Richie.

Wrexham will have more money than us + the 3 coming down from the Championship. Stockport + Mansfield will be about the same as us but by the sounds of things slightly more. The 3 coming down from the Championship are offset by the 3 going up. Wrexham coming up should be the only place we drop. Sto...

Thanks for the summary, top work. Stockport and Mansfield have a lot more money than us? The 3 going up will all be ahead of us, as will the 3 going down, so not sure how our budget has dropped from top 10 to 14th. Maybe the purse strings have been tightened? Wrexham will have more money than us + ...

He’s a Championship standard player. He deserves a Championship level wage. Orient is probably the only League 1 club he might consider moving to, but in reality he should be looking at Championship clubs for his next move. I’m sure his agent agrees too. Not only is he a serious baller he comes acro...

Wasn’t the last game they played at that level against us?
