Embarrassing. Even if by some fluke Orient win this, we are just kidding ourselves. This squad is a disaster. It’s as bad as the Steve Davis era.

Absolutely . No way is this squad going to survive in League One . Going cheap in the Summer with recruitment is going to work out to be very expensive in the end .

Gates back to 4000 if we’re relegated, probably less if they charge more than £20 a ticket.

Season ticket sales are going to absolutely plummet next year, even more so after a relegation.

“Rock bottom”

Are you new here?

It is bad and the squad does look paper thin

Can’t bring Agyei off. Fighter, leader and gives opposition something entirely different to think about.

Most of that 'Steve Davis era' squad won us the National League title.

I have just watched the game. Ok 1st half but after that we were terrible. Long time since we`ve been this poor. Really worrying.

Totally agree with you Maxy, it is a bad thing that ST sales will drop, but numbers will drop for a few reasons.
1. We have a poor, cheap squad but I think Richie will keep us up, just.
2. Increased ticket prices………£30 -35 to watch L1 games on a Tuesday night which many fans can’t make
3. Sky blanket coverage allowing fans to watch from their armchairs

Scott free?
Nigel has poured millions into this club and continues to keep us afloat whilst looking for new investment. I think you need to take a reality check. Nigel has achieved what he set out to do when we were about to go under. He needs our gratitude and thanks. I appreciate his honesty when he says he needs more investment than he can provide.
Putting pressure on him won’t achieve anything, unless he decides enough is enough and walks away from the club he has supported for decades.
