Re: Exiles thread - Charlton (H)

Disappointing but we should have been 2/3 down at half time. We're not quite good enough to go up I'm sad to say. 4 months ago we were going to be relegated, it's a great achievement to be where we are now.. Mid/high table is probably a fair reflection of where we deserve to be.

Re: Hi-lites vs Lincoln

I thought the Lincoln lad had timed his run perfectly but I was behind the goal so I was hoping to have another look. There didn't seem to be much protest from them so perhaps it was the right call.

Buzz about the town

I was walking down Leyton High Road yesterday and couldn't help but notice that Saturday's game wasn't what everyone was talking about, bunting was not up in all the shop windows, not even so much as the local baker having made a commemorative cake. No wonder we're never on the BBC, we've given them...

Re: No tickets sold for the Stevenage game

Stevenage are 3/1 in old money to win. They're out of all the other cups and going nowhere in the league. They may as well put a string team out. We'll likely play the stiffs.

Paul v Tyson

What's this all about? Remember the old days when we'd watch professionals at the the top of their game?

Tyson is nearly 60 but 3/1 to beat a YouTuber, can that be right?

Ruel Sotiriou

Anyone missing this guy? He never really nailed down his place but would always pop up and get a crucial goal from nowhere. I'd say he earned 5/6 points for us single handed last season. The way we've struggled in front of goal this year, I'm thinking it was a mistake to let him go. I can't imagine ...

Re: Season Ticket Deadline Extended

Sales ticking along but with only a week to go still a 1/3 of ST holders yet to renew. There will be a last minute rush but it doesn't look likely that it will sell out, in the first offer at least.

Re: Pigott starts tonight

He's not a target man and doesn't do enough off the ball. A few times he could have moved out wide and opened up the centre but stayed in the middle and the move broke down. Ruel looks sharp for 15 minutes then loses momentum when the ball isn't played to him, not showing anything more than an impac...

We scraped over the line twice after being in winning positions and before that we lost 4 in a row. However T20 is a lottery so they have every c...

Despite the supposed rivalry I'm glad they now have a way forward. When we were in that position we built up a bit of a pot to use should we had gone out of business.
