Indeed a really good interview but somehow I don’t think we’ll be afforded too much praise from next Saturday’s visiting manager!!!

Four out of four clean sheets in the Pizza Cup during the 2021-22 season, not too shabby I’d say and he made some terrific saves in those games. Two more years with the first-team squad in the meantime so hopefully he will be a more than adequate back-up ‘keeper.

Dean is currently Head of Academy Goalkeeping at Tottenham Hotspur, think he’s been there for a couple of years. A great decision by Justin to bring him out of retirement and he was absolutely pivotal in helping us depart from the National Sewer League!!!

Bonne is only contracted to Charlton until the end of this season.

Steels Restaurant in Cleethorpes is excellent for fish and chips etc and about 15 minutes walk to the ground. Been there on a couple of occasions in recent years and it’s top-notch, very welcoming to away fans too!

One thing’s for sure, he’s definitely been to the same kidology school as fellow countryman Sir Alex.

That’s a bit harsh - I don’t think he’s horrible!

Millwall have a January recall clause for Mitchell, although manager Gary Rowett would ideally like him to stay at St Johnstone for the entire season.

Wouldn’t mind Alex Mitchell back, currently on loan at St Johnstone from Millwall.

Dale Gorman did score for the O’s, in a 2-0 home victory against Southend United in the EFL (Leasing.com) Trophy.

Hunt, Pratley, Archibald and James are I believe all on four yellow cards - and the cut-off date for a one-match ban after five yellows is December 31st!

And no sign of the red card incident - slightly convenient!

Many thanks and my reply to you may have gone in your junk folder!

Hi TP,

Being an O’s supporter for over fifty years I’d be more than happy to take the kit off your hands. I’ve only just joined this forum so am not authorised to DM you but can be contacted via stephen.dorrington@sky.com if that’s ok with you.
