Re: It's coming home

2030 World Cup co-hosts also confirmed as Spain, Portugal and Morocco, with the first three matches held in South America. What the f*** is this? It was done to get round the fact that the last World Cup was held in the Middle East and the next one is in North America. Giving the 2030 one to Europe...

Re: Ratings

Gotta remember that Kane wasn't rated when he was with us or by any clubs he was on loan with after us, so who knows how he will develop? Gotta remember that Kane was 17, whilst Donley turns 20 next month. And Ian Wright was 23 when he turned pro! .....yep, having been rejected by Orient after a tr...

Re: Club encourages fans to use a VPN

I said last season when Nigel said illegal streaming was theft from the club, when for 99% of games you couldn't legally stream from the UK Using a VPN in the UK to bypass GEO restrictions is not an illegal act, it may be against Orients terms and conditions if you can find them. Using other method...

Re: Cup Fever!

The FA moves some games to Sunday so that they can sell them to overseas pay-per-view. The match is not available in the UK unless you have a VPN and are willing to subscribe to ESPN or BeIn. Unless anyone knows a free to air overseas channel where it's being shown.

Re: Nearly the end of the line for Southgate?

Tactical masterclass last night when you think about it. As Gareth said, it was a complex game where the Dutch changed their shape and style about 4 times during that second half and he responded. That's the crux of what people dont understand when they talk about good or bad managers. They see the...

Re: Jacksonville Shooter

Hardly, too many people in the UK possess firearms unnecessarily, rarely use them legitimately or clean them ( cleaning is part of the maintenance regime). Many gun clubs have weapons you can hire so I wonder if there could be a better way of reducing gun ownership here. There have been hundreds of...

The only time Nigel said fans were cheating the club was with respect to illegal streaming, not regards eating elsewhere. I accept he did say that eating elsewhere was taking revenue away from the club, which could have been better worded. Ironically the supporters club is always bursting at the se...

Re: MY VERDICT

You can’t just rid of players who are still in contract But you can tell them they don't feature in your plans and look to move them on. The likes of Sotiriou and Thompson aren't suitable options at this level but could be useful to clubs in L2, much like Clay went to Sutton once he knew he wasn't ...

If we want to achieve further aims then the ante has to go up. Regrettably that means change. Years back we embraced American owners (with some local interest); now we have London based Americans sponsoring the club.
