Re: Help Please

We need good fortune not boks. How can you bet against your own side for a few quid? Beyond me! When I put it on we were 66/1. £660 would've numbed the pain (a little). It's not betting against your own lot, I see it as an insurance policy. More than happy to lose that tenner. Insurance policy for ...

Re: F*CK P@ul T*rry interview

Returning to the scene of his only orient goal on Saturday.
What a great day that was.

Credit where it’s due , the evidence on the pitch since he’s returned is there for all to see.
Long may it continue......

A decent team playing attacking, exciting football helps (which the early signs are good that we could be moving towards on a consistent basis under RW)

Orients goals this season

9th highest in the league for goals scored (51) despite failing to score in 15 of their 38 games this season. (Which could well be a club record by the end of the season) Just shows how truely awful our middle section to the season was. Such a shame, if our fortunes upturning/(new manager) had happe...

Re: Joe Root to carry on as captain?

If I was in charge I would go along the 'brearley' route and pick the best captain even if he isn't technically a good enough batsman to get in the team on his batting merit. Sad fact is there isn't a lot of options. I would offer it to Morgan as he is the best captain available. Build a batting uni...

Re: Attendance today

If that's true then a hell of a lot of season ticket holders didn't turn up, lots. There were tons of empty seats in every stand. Which is odd, for a home game in the sun, team in form, retro kit day The whole point of football for a fiver is to entice new fans. I just wonder how successful they ar...

Re: Attendance today

Also, therefore by definition the 'game for a fiver' day was a complete success because they sold every ticket they could. Which leads back to my other point about 800+ empty seats in the away end , which with a bit more foresight and (correct stewarding) could've been open for sale as well.

Re: Attendance today

Club need to think about replacing the east stand with a terrace stand , this should then increase the capacity to over 10,000 and largely take away the issue of season ticket no shows and not being able to re-sell tickets for ST no shows.
