Re: Negative Fans
Then you’ll have no problem whatsoever with laying out exactly what is idiotic about it, given that you’ve said fans who aren’t rich and don’t have experience of running football clubs should refrain from criticising owners on the basis that the owners have put money in?

Re: Negative Fans
"Fans allowing owners free reign and not questioning decisions....." etc. Well yes, a classic case of this was when Hearn suckered a lot of fans into his bulls--t world ('call me Barry' etc) and went behind our backs with all the flat building. The trap and the distraction had been made and then he duly lumbered us with the capacity problem we have to this day. We should have protested at the time but we were too timid.BiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 10:33 amYou think him saying he doesn’t want Orient to get to the Premier League isn’t smalltime?DaveDunmore wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 10:22 amGo and support a big club then , Orient is Orient happy when we win sad when we lose .

Fans allowing owners free reign and not questioning decisions is what caused the club to nearly go under. Nigel and Kent aren’t beyond questioning and criticism. Neither are anyone else at the club. They’ve been at the club for 6 years now, its time to let the past go.
Your post is exactly why Orient have and will always be a tiny club. Such a small time mentality.

The equivalent of a 10-0 PUMPING for CEB.

We don't currently have a capacity problem and haven't since 1947.

Re: Negative Fans
Yeah and the owners/investors who “put millions of their own money in” are going to want that money to take the club to the next levels. Like it or not, the fans were here before them and they’ll be here after. If you’re happy to let anyone come in and invest without questioning their motives or the decisions the club is making, then you deserve another Bechetti.DaveDunmore wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 11:27 amNo what he’s saying he likes Orient just the way it is a small London club with players you can talk to and connect with ,when you criticise owners who put millions of their own money in and think they are answerable to the likes of you absolute dipstickBiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 10:33 amYou think him saying he doesn’t want Orient to get to the Premier League isn’t smalltime?DaveDunmore wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 10:22 am

Re: Negative Fans
That’s my point. A lot of Orient fans seem to just trust everyone who owns the club that they’ll look after ‘little ol’ Orient’.Chief crazy horse wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2023 12:30 pm"Fans allowing owners free reign and not questioning decisions....." etc. Well yes, a classic case of this was when Hearn suckered a lot of fans into his bulls--t world ('call me Barry' etc) and went behind our backs with all the flat building.
