No Orient supporter prefers to lose, that's a ridiculous thing to say

When we lose supporters are normally upset and angry and they come on here to vent their feelings.

To reiterate, it's absolute nonsense to suggest real Orient supporters prefer to lose , utter tosh
You need to read this Board more closely. There are several already missing in action tonight because we won and it is a regular thing.
Dead Right……..where’s “Poundy “ tonight for example ??
Probably I'm shock like the rest of us and unable to operate a keyboard.

Poundy is in Cyprus , watched the game on a live feed here.Already posted much earlier after the match on the exiles thread at 5.07.
Was a good match and a great result.

Both he, and the primate bloke will declare themselves "satisfied" at the Stockport game, and will be back on here if we get a poor result Tuesday

It takes very little intellect to say something negative- and they will be back with a vengeance at the hint of a down-turn. Read into that what you will.
Primate bloke here, think your find if you bothered to look I was complementary about yesterdays result however I still feel we need a proper striker, Kelman is no target man and never will be. Tuesdays game will be a test, Peterborough will be tough opponents.

If we'd have been pumped, it's be heaving with the same rehashed threads on Ling, Travis et al being tight and none of our new signings not being up to it. People on here genuinely don't seem to like us doing well.
This

I think it’s a minority on here TBH who are straight on here after a home defeat moaning……..I didn’t catch the game but this is a fantastic result against a team who apparently have won their last 7 at home.
I thought we played well At Brentford and were a bit unlucky but anyway, great result today, well done 👏
That was a great result. . I think our goals were the first Stockport have conceded at home this season .

I feel the squad is stronger too.

Finally recruited a quality left back and Dom Ball, after a decent run of match time, is going to be a big player.

As others have stated, younger players have matured and improved.

El Miz going was always going to be massive, and missing Forde’s goals too (I was never a Ruel fan) but Kelman is much improved from last time he was here and I reckon he will be a 12-15 goal striker this campaign.

Don't really agree on that one, imo it shows that we've finally got the squad we needed at the start of the season. Sweeney and Obiero in an otherwise young squad was too much inexperience (and imo the former isn't ready for L1 and has been a weak spot until Currie arrived)

CB yes we do have the luxury of choice there and it's the one area we had sorted very early in the window.

DJ / Perkins, don't think many on here would have the latter in the squad so bit of a mystery there, unless fitness is the limiting factor.

Are we stronger than last year? Not really, upfront still looks very fragile if Agyei is unavailable and midfield is currently being looked after by our RB.

The good news is with the Currie and Ball signings we look more competitive and a bit more nous in the side as evidenced by recent results.
Zech has been excellent & is ready

So peed off with Hemming as I thought from game 1 we looked good, with far greater potential than last season. With the recent additions and our No 1 now average at the very least, I'm most bullish of a Top 6 spot.
