Re: Signings
Alabi scored 2 goals in the NL last year. Him getting 5 in this league is laughable.
Was the wrong choice of sub yesterday and I think it was Ross going heart over head. Tbf to the lad, he didnt do badly but his hold up play in the last 5 minutes was laughable. Ross and Webb were both shaking their heads when he tried to hold it in the corner and lost it within 2 seconds.

I’m here to talk football, not perry arguments with message board keyboard warriors.
At least Prestige Worldwide just put his neck on the line. Good for him.
Until you decide you want to use a Leyton Orient message board to talk about Orient or football in general (rather than using it as a platform to wind up people from the safety of a keyboard) then don’t bother responding to me.
So you think your ever so self importance negative posts re Alabi and Harrold is talking football do you?
And you didn’t know Dennis is a striker
And your calling everybody else keyboard warriors
You remind me of that guy who was allegedly in the Orient dressing room with his kid the day we won the NL
You do know what the NL is right
I’ve seen more oomph in a sherbet dib dab
1 part sad, 1 part amusing.
I suppose it’s cheaper than therapy for you.

Re: Signings
Never have any actual opinions, predictions or assessments of your own. Just have a pop at other people.
You just sit there waiting to pounce on people who are willing to make a statement.
Really pathetic behaviour.
I may not always be right. So what? At least I don’t sit around waiting to denigrate other people.
You’re an absolute loser.
I bet you wouldn’t put your neck on the line and make a specific prediction about Alabi like Presige Worldwide had the guts to do. I might not agree with him, but fair play to him for making a statement.
You give it the big one from behind a keyboard, bullying message board members, but I bet you’re a shy little dork in real life.

Re: Signings
I would say it's having knowledge of our team & players, like knowing what positions our new signing can play. Re: Alabi, I'm not his biggest fan, but I respect the fact that he's a better player than I ever was & he has had a half decent pre season.Newtonian wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 7:49 pmI’m a clown for having a different opinion to you?O my gawd wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 7:23 pmHere we go another
If Wilkinson or Angol get injured we've got Dennis. Didn't Harrold fill in last season & get important goals? Ruel Sotiriou has looked lively over pre-season & then we have Alabi. Yes he's bit marmite but he has shown an intent to do well over pre-season & in all honesty he's done pretty well. Of course it remains to be seen if he will score goals in League 2, but if I was a tiring defender, I wouldn't fancy him running at me.
Some right sad bell ends on this message board.
Can’t make a point without having to insult somebody.
Do one. If you think that a player like Alabi is fit for a league 2 team than the only clown here is you.
This time last year everyone had it in for Clay & look how he turned it around. Alabi is staying around May as well give him a 2nd chance to come good.

As for Alabi decent pre-season. You mean scoring a goal or two against pub teams? Come on, the bloke is laughable, and belongs nowhere near a league 2 team.
I’ve already had one boarder confirming that he reckons Alabi will get 5 goals for Orient in league 2 this season. Will you commit to the same?
Bare in mind, this is a bloke who scored two goals in the conference last season.
Finally, sorry for coming on a bit strong. There really are some bell ends on this message board. I don’t think you are one based on your decent response. But don’t call me a clown immediately. That’s just not cool.

Let’s get this in writing.
All too easy having a pop at anyone who points out how obviously Alabi is out of his depth at this level but I want to see you actually put yourself behind a prediction. I bet you won’t. Keyboard warrior.

Are you one of those no win no fees set ups
Didn’t know Dennis was a Striker hasn’t even mentioned Sotiriou just solely concentrated on a hatred for Alabi it might have missed your ignorance but Angol and Wilkinson failed to get on the score sheet yesterday should we bench them next game and put Ling and Widdowson up front?
Whoever called you a clown where bang on the money

What a joke.
Did your therapist tell you that it’s easier to criticise others than making statements of your own?
“Blah Blah Dennis, Blah Blah ignoring my question about Alabi”
So come on then, how many goals will Alabi score for Orient in League two this season (19/20). I reckon less than 5. Will you commit to more than 5 Mr Keyboard Warrior? I bet not.
Wimp.

No chance
Not because I don't believe he would score them, but because he is probably 5th or 6th choice & won't get many opportunities. Think he has something to offer as a impact player

Re: Signings
Exactly, thats why they were shaking their head. They told him to take it to the corner, and i'm just guessing here, to hold the ball up.

Harrold would have had that ball down there for 45 seconds and then wont free kick.

Re: Signings
I can’t recall who was having the free kick on the edge of their box, but he turned and asked Embleton what he should do several times before he was told to get it to the corner flag. A ridiculous decision , they had 9 men, we had players spare on the edge of the box and a goal scoring opportunity. I’ve yet to see us retaining possession when we think we are Barcelona and try to waste time by the corner flag. Again later on we had a 2 on one chance on the same side just outside their box and Alabi acting on orders chose to take it to the corner where he again lost possession.

Unfortunately that was heart over head, unless Harrold had a knock we dont know about.
Ross will learn from that, hopefully.

Re: Signings
I reckon it was an attempt to help the lad in a low-risk situation. If he could nab a goal against 9 men, that might just give his confidence a boost. But, IMO confidence isn't really the issue with him, it's ability.Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Sun Aug 04, 2019 8:50 pm Alabi scored 2 goals in the NL last year. Him getting 5 in this league is laughable.
