I’ll tell you what, forget about bringing in anymore outfield players and use all the money we have left to bring in a new keeper . Hemming has to go .

I know it's a WUM so just answering this bit, funny enough there's a question waiting for him later :lol:
How is it wum?
GK,CDM,LB is what you have stated for months now.
As someone in IT who claims he can't name the people who should come in, why should anyone listen to your opinion on what is needed?
For the exact same reason any of us including the Orient Live presenters discuss football. Already at the "are you a football manager" trope and it's only half time
A useless opinion then, I expect nothing less

If he drops Hemming then his loan spell is over. He is here to play games.
Is he here to cost us points?
I don’t disagree but I think if he drops him he’s gone.
Then get him gone

RW’s game plan was perfect. You just can’t give teams two goals. We have played well.

That's probably more galling for him than being comprehensively outplayed. He knows we need better players than this. Feel sorry for him, deserves better than what he's been given this summer.

f*cking bollocks.

The positive is that we pretty much matched a team that will probably be champions. Aside from two f*** ups (one of them proper unlucky) we might have got something out of it.

Yes, Kelman apart the new recruits look a pretty ropey bunch at the moment.

Regardless, it’s a bit weird to bring in most players in the window who don’t actually strengthen our first team. If DJ can’t get a game whilst Graham and Theo are injured he’s gonna be 4th/5th choice. Perkins and Warrington also bench warming. Just makes the recruitment all the more

Hemming is just costing us dearly
Donley looks like he’s going to be a good player for us
Clare looks just about ok
Kelman looks good
Perkins /Warrington/DJ , jury out

It’s not been a stellar transfer window
The quality players of Agyei/Brown/ONeill/Galbraith don’t look like they’ve been backed up, exception Kelman
Donley, only his second league match, could be quality as well
