Re: Essex CCC

One swallow doesn't make a summer.Good win by Essex over my lot.
Although they outplayed middlesex from day one with magnificent bowling I'm afraid the batting is very ordinary

Re: Season Ticket Prices 2023/24

When promotion is gained and not if.The increase in season cards will go a long way if enough fans purchase them to increase the budget available to bring in players to consolidate next season or do even better.I hope this is the idea that the board are thinking of?

Re: Supporter’s coach

Does anybody remember the supporters coach in the 1970s when I think Dave Dodd and Frank Woolf were in charge .We had one or two good days out and sometimes on the way back stopped at a pub

Re: Recording of The Orient Hour 22/02/23

The club should have nothing to do with The Orient Hour.
It's not the official voice of the club and never will be.

Re: Man jailed for attack after Telford football match.

I have been told that a company called E 3 security services have been sponsoring the Orient Hour in recent weeks . I have it on good authority that the company is allegedly owned by someone called Lee Boyce

Re: Peter Allen

Agree with you 100%. You must be a long time orient supporter knowing Brian Whitehouse +10 others. I think it was John Smith who said that to willy Graham if I'm not mistaken. He didn't play much after that or at all.

I find this very strange.
Why has the passing of Peter Allen received only 24 posts Yet the thread on Southend United has received over 30 posts. To me it hard to believe.
