Weird wasn’t it? Just didn’t bother. Looks like he’s quite skilful but can’t be f*cked if it isn’t right to his foot
Wouldn’t think he’s a Wellens player from that

It’s down to Wellens to sort him out. I hope DJ doesn’t think he’s at Orient for a free ride . He needs his backside kicked

I know there’s some divvy Os on this board but the inability to take into account the quality of the opposition is taking things too far.

Its a team mostly in need of minutes, nowhere near our starting lineup.

Get a f*cking grip.

Agree and we’ve more than matched them. Positive performance so far

Yep, this is Orient reserves and we’re doing ok verses Brentford Prem reserves.
With some changes at HT we can only get stronger

Donley playing the best I've seen him
Perkins is a waste of time, were playing with 10 men.
I love the sky blue kit
That's it really

Sonny boy does look lightweight up top.
Team has played some nice stuff at times though.

Perkins working hard but to be fair hasn’t been given a decent ball that I can recall. The issue for me is DJ on the right who has decent feet but seemingly no engine or pace. Sweeney offers us nothing. Miles off the quality of TJ or Curry. I think the rest of the team have played very well. Brentford punish every mistake.

Stranger things have happened has us coming back into this. They might take some players off to rest them and we might bring some more quality on

Dj has done nothing. Perkins is a lighyweight. Both should be replaced get Graham and Kelman on. We have played some nice football in the middle of the park. 3 good goals from Brentford. Hope RW goes for bust in the 2nd half.
