There's no place for racism and misogyny at Orient. :x
I thought it was Misogyny Day at the Orient. Last week it Homophonic Day and we had Alan Comfort say a piece on then pitch before the game.
Said a peace, you mean.

Getting cold again. I'm seeing forecasts as low as minus 4 over night this week and a 'high' of 3C Saturday, probably nearer 1C at time of kick off.

The irony is, if the game was starting at 3pm we would not be so worried about the temperature

Could do with an ice age for the next 6-12 weeks till we get OON & DA back.

I can’t. Area around the ground (was over there just now) isn’t icy so no danger to the public and with the covers on the pitch will be fine.

LSN is the personification of those Daily Express cold-snap weather news headlines.

Why are we suddenly so obsessed with the cold? This thread must be sponsored by the Daily Express surely.

Out of interest, anyone remember when Orient (the men) last had a home game postponed due to the weather ?

I was at Motherwell v Aberlosers last Sunday and it was Baltic. 20 minutes from the end I just wanted to go home I was so cold. Ironically I burnt my lips drinking the hot Bovril I bought at half time to save my life and it's taken all week for them to recover. Maybe its an age thing.
