Independent Leyton Orient Forum

Playing Devils advocate here........again, but as the thread says, why should we improve? What can change, that will make us improve and win games on a regular basis? We cant bring in anyone new for four months, so we're stuck without a decent goalscorer again, the defence is leaking more than a ru...

Pool 1 Orient 1

Seems true and he was at our game Saturday .
Not sure he’s L1 but he’s young and our manager rates him . Good squad member and can score

The question surely should be is he better than Byrne ? If not , then it makes no sense . Byrne looked pretty good when we saw him

I’ll help you with Piggot, he’s the new Alan West . If you know you know . Bit of a luxury player , won’t score many ,and slow, with just nice touches .Not sure he really fits RW style of play

They seem to have a big budget . I think they will be top 3 . Good signings , good manager and Kenny shrewd in the market

0-2 sadly.

Blimey we look awful in these highlights . So they scored 4 easy goals , 2 offside .
We look lethargic , no energy , no passion . Why ?

Losing one of your key signings for five months is not a good start. Can’t believe Drinan will be three months on top. Gee, what were they playing on at Colchester , mountain terrain? Charlton have no injuries at all. Fully fit squad . We need to add two players up top before end of August to replac...

Charlton 2-0 Orient

Some Good play but couldn’t score

Kwadwo Baah - 20 year old German born striker on loan from Watford

I’m sure he’s a left winger

One young striker he said , one winger one cb . Hope that young striker is good , we really need someone who gets goals . We have lots of creators but lacking proper finishers

It’ll just be Turns returning on loan. Don’t think we have a striker signed yet. On paper we look weaker as a squad than the promotion team , we still need good additions

Obviously a personality clash . He had such potential and a shrewd move by Mr Kenny , who if I remember played Ogie lots . He may not have trained well, but he showed more passion than some on match day , when selected and his skill and potential was way above 100k to Gillingham Why no replacement i...

Good too hear we have 9 Christian’s in the squad . Not sure who they are but obviously George , I’d guess Omar and Dan are also. It’s a good grounding despite what cynics May say. I like that George gives praise to Jesus in interviews and isn’t worried of any stick.

I might be tempted to put Dan on the bench

Vigs
James Beckles McCart Hunt
El Miz Pratley
Sadlier
Theo Kelman Smyth

Sarge
Moncs
Lyden
Thompson
Drinan
Clay
Smith

6’5 wow Gone to Northampton ! Not sure what that says about us

How many loans are we allowed

Yep all clubs want to hold on to their best players in January ! Mmm .

Better give Kenny a call to see if he can recommend a replacement, for the gem he found us. If he goes I think promotion becomes much harder , he’s been a massive part of our success this season, he can turn a game . We shouldn’t let him go until May and we should be asking £500,000 if he insists on...

One step at a time. We are a million miles away from the championship . We’re finding it hard to get out of L2 right now . More to the point, if we go into L 1 do we have the funds to buy a L1 team? RW said we can’t afford the calibre of players bought by Colchester or Gillingham , so therefore how ...

We’re more of a team than having lots of individuals that other clubs may want . Probably only Vigs or Smyth that any club would want right now. Everyone else has shown no quality form for weeks .

Tran 1 Os 2 and a good match

He was hoping to sign him or someone for Friday training ! Looks like that’s not happened . Always seems to be snags.
