Re: Vennells
She seems to be relying on the fact that she only knew about a couple of bugs and was reassured they were fixed, whilst at the same time believing she wasn't being given the full picture by those around her. Hmm. How anyone with any experience at all of working with new large IT systems could honest...

Vennells
Anyone else following this? Absolutely fascinating to see the (lack of) thought processes at the top of the Post Office on her watch. I struggle to understand how people like her get to the positions they're in with such negligible understanding of what they're in charge of. Also infuriating to see ...

Re: Ok addressing the elephant in the room
I know some of you maybe we thinking I’m getting my knickers in a twist, or take a chill pill, but I’m bored and I need more Orient news on current players and their contracts and potential targets ( I know it maybe a little too soon and we don’t want to give anything away) like I said at the top, ...

Re: Hector gets a new contract offer
Glad to see that Hector is so appreciated at Peterborough United, far more so than when he was at the Os, many on this forum were overjoyed when we sold him on. Most People I know were in shock we got £300 grand for him. He is still a League One player and to my knowledge has won nothing. Well, apa...

Re: Save our Landlords
So ok, if o-no Jr's landlord sells up and the property isn't re-rented - maybe someone buys it to live in - then there is one less property available to rent and 5 people looking for somewhere to rent. The balance has changed. But the person who buys it to live in has left somewhere behind. O-no jn...

Re: Save our Landlords
I think you're wilfully misunderstanding. Clearly if a landlord sells up there are still the same number of actual buildings, but if that building is no longer available to rent then the supply of rentable properties has dropped. I think you're wilfully misunderstanding. The number of people and nu...

Re: Save our Landlords
So when the landlord sells up, where does the house disappear to ? The housing stock doesn’t change the housing stock available for rental But there's still the same number of people needing a home and the same number of houses. A landlord throwing his toys out of his pram and selling up doesn't ch...

Re: Save our Landlords
Having a decent supply of rental properties is essential though, but we need decent landlords too. O-no Jr has a room in a house with 4 others. If the landlord sells up that's 5 of them looking for affordable alternatives, it reduces the housing stock available for rental. He's 23 and doesn't earn ...

Re: Which players has Wellens lost his patience with?
No but James can play a bit but really doesn’t seem motivated whereas Omar really can’t play but thinks he can, resulting in regular heart stopping moments!

Re: Anyone think Richie might be off?
I love RW, but he is not the most successful manager out there yet. If clubs want a manager with promotion success on their CV there are better options out there Idiot post of the year. Come on then, who are these better managers who would come to the O's? No-one knows who would and wouldn't come t...

Re: 8444 - Highest average attendance since 73-74 season
Surely everyone knows by now that since Devlin became CEO these are ticket-sold figures not attendance figures. For the stadium announcer to state these on a weekly basis as the "attendance" isn't even disingenuous, it is a lie. All done to impress and attract potential advertisers, spons...

Re: Players who we don’t need any more
Beckles' main problem is overplaying it.Story of O wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2024 8:05 am Maybe controversial, but Beckles. Seems to make more mistakes as he gets older.
Sounds harsh but I think he thinks he's better on the ball than he actually is.
If he sticks to the basics he's perfectly fine.

Re: Its the hope that kills you
It's been an amazing season for sure, and I'm happy to think about what might have been but (there's always a but) I don't think we're ready for the next level yet at either a squad or organisational level. If we somehow fluked promotion via the playoffs, for all the excitement, I think we'd get hor...

I actually think it's not bad value for a tenner, and light years better than when it first started.
