I could see Reid joining him at Rotherham now Evans has a bigger budget at his disposal .

If he wants to stay in London we need a striker...

(though knowing our luck he'd prove to be a one season wonder whose purple patch is finished if he joined us!)

Get it wrong and we could be facing a relegation battle next season :lol: With 6 key signings forming the spine of the squad to come in it's still very much up in the air. Look at our current squad excluding those yet to renew to see just how much some key positions need to improve... Just remember...

Quite possibly goes to Tuchel tonight, take off Harry Kane a goal up, changes to 3 at the back and concedes two in a few mins. How very Spursy...

They've never lost a play off Final.
Hardly Bottle Jobs

Bottled a 4-0 lead and two semis in conservative seasons qualifies them imo

It's good to know there's a club that are even bigger bottlers than Orient when it comes to the play-offs

I hope you're right, the FA Cup Replay battle is the next step in that fight against the greed of those at the top of the pyramid

You’re missing the point. Without the biggest clubs, the tv revenue is next to nothing. The tv money gets filtered down to Orient this way. Well given the Prem still don't want to agree the money share with the EFL next season's Champions League looks uncannily like the Superleague concept there's ...

Gonna be a poo poo show of random Friday/Sunday kick offs at 11am for a few thousand people to watch on sky sports. Gshaw will be pleased though... Not happy with Sky getting their claws back into EFL at all. My great hope was seeing the end of the 3pm blackout with Orient running their own domesti...

Have a soft spot for JK - for when he squared up to that fella who left us, went to Burnley in a fit of pique, and ended up at Bromley. Mind you, we go got some reasonable mullah for him. He became a real hate figure. George Porter the original pantomime villain before Ebou Adams took over the role...

If someone came in this summer and offered £750k for Galbraith should we take it? Absolutely not, Peterborough only deal in 7 figures for their assets so that's the minimum ballpark we should entertain I think it was a great move for Hector and definitely aided his development and the good season w...

Orient should be selling players and reinvesting into the squad. With the recent change heading towards more of "the Brentford model" we are going down that route, Travis / Kent have mentioned they're going for more 2+1 arrangements where we get the third year option in our favour for exa...

When you look back that National league squad was crazy Bonne, Koroma, Marvin all went to play in the Championship, Brophy League One And we got barely anything for them in return We got promotion back to L2. Came to say the same, we got those players on a free, they did a great job for us, won a t...

Joe Pigott, hasn’t worked out, JP great lad but not RW’s type of player. Really does make you wonder how that signing came about, hopefully Richie's recruitment process improvements will be followed this summer Wants two athletic full backs in, as well as g/k, midfield and forward. Bang on, he does...

Club would have been mad to give a three year deal to Smyth. His fitness record was very poor when we signed him and he barely played in the first season. Shorter contracts are insurance for the club as much as for the player, as we'll see this summer with Moncur and Piggott, it's hard to get under...

Peterborough wanted £6.5 million - He may well be worth that one day if he continues to develop but as good as he is I think they should have taken the £4million from Watford with both hands tbh. We would have got 20% sell on once the £300k we sold him for had been deducted so a nice little £740k a...

In case anyone is unaware, I rate Hector, a lot. But £4m???

We would have got 20% sell on once the £300...

Galbraith had arguably his best game of the season at Shrewsbury (yes, I know it was only Shrewsbury) playing in the 10 role. Would love to see him playing there again next season, ideally with Idris behind him. This, Galbraith to take the place of Moncur as our starting 10 then with El Miz / repla...

You can never be sure with Orient social media admin, probably working on how they can edit him into a Marvel scene before the next video drops

Independent chap free of party political interference

Monkey boy, where do you get your information from mate 🤔🤣 TBF, MB has been posting some better stuff lately. But he posts about Wellens every few weeks "won't be here after the season ends" "wouldn't be surprised if etc etc". Hopefully he will leave it alone now and be a bit mo...

Reverse Jonah did the trick again, use the powers wisely

Excellent news, El Miz next please

Yet... no guarantee any of the ones offered contracts will sign

Also Ethan Light, what a waste of wages never even got near the first team, what was that move all about
