A very enjoyable afternoon and a much deserved 3 points.

Good to see some rub of the green. On another day they would have put that one on one away in the second half.

Sweeney was super. As was Prats when he came on.

Such a solid display all round and the win looked comfortable.

Beckles MOTM was one of the more baffling decisions I’ve seen at Orient. The only Orient player who played sh*t.

Galbraith was outstanding again.

Baffling is your statement, you weren’t at the same game as me if u think he played s***.

Beckles & Dan H were extremely solid. Dan had one hairy moment near the end but otherwise both were faultless.

He did play sh*t. Gave the ball away, caught of position constantly, got turned inside out and bullied by their forwards.

Just more proof that Orient fans don’t understand football

Excellent result today and not a bad week beating both Portsmouth and Bolton one after the other . Well done to all the players for putting on another solid display
My only gripe from this afternoon is that linesman on the West side second half. He was the worst linesman we've seen at Orient this season . He missed three clear fouls on Shaq Forde and a clear throw on for us that he gave to Bolton . That was the spark that got Richie red carded . Also apparently you can now lift an opponent off the ground and it's not a foul . Amazing decision making by the officials today

He really is, we look a completely different side with his hold up play and finishing threat
I love his power and strength . We really do look like a different team with Dan in the side . I think we're fortunate he's managed to hit the ground running on his return from injury . Well done Dan .

Yesterday there were many Bolton fans on Twitter (X ), boasting about how they were going to beat us, or that we had no chance of beating them etc, so it gives me extra pleasure to beat them.
Pompey, & Bolton in 2 successive weeks ain't bad is it
What a difference having a decent footballer up front instead of that plank Pigott.

A lot of expectation was placed on Agyei. But my goodness he is living up to it. An excellent signing, a quality player for this level and if he stays fit he’ll become a key player for Orient. Can easily see him bagging 15+ goals in a full season.

The one thing about football is it has a nasty habit of kicking you in the bollocks when you least expect it . Basically you can't go around sticking your chin out like those Pompey and Bolton supporters did .

Nope. I’m not a happy clapper who thinks everyone is an 8/10 just because the team wins.

I’m a happy clapper and proud of it, it’s called supporting your club through thick and thin, and being proud of all the players who wear the shirt, do you think they go out and have a poor game on purpose, do you think it helps their confidence being told they played “sh*t”, or as someone else said “a plank” do you ?

Of course they don’t play sh*t on purpose but don’t pretend they’ve played well when they haven’t. Same goes the other way when people think they team are headed for relegation and Wellens is out of his depth. They’re quiet now.

Beckles is a senior pro in his 30s. Do you think what I say will affect his performance?

Beckles will be laughing at any Dimwit that thinks he was sh*t today.

The amount of times he was left 1 v 1 against their big striker was ridiculous. Other than once late in on the first half, he won every single duel. He gave an incredible defensive display.

It’s not about pretence, as can be seen by the different ratings we see, we all have different opinions on how someone's played, name calling is childish we all do it, but it’s not objective. No I don’t think what you say would affect his performance, mainly because you wouldn’t say it to his face.
