RW was great for us, L2 Champs and later PO final. For 15 months its been hard work, last season being very tough to watch. This season looks a lot like last, inspire of having our most expensive squad ever. The home performances have been so poor, the lack of forward play has been so depressing. This media ban (either Wellens or the club) is making things worse not better. The club should make a decision (soon) as to whether RW can make this work, I am doubtful!

South stand was making plenty of noise throughout first half and continued despite being a player down. Fans show up and supoort the team and then are criticised by some troll sat at home? f*** that.
So the crowd in the TJS is the Home fans is it ?
There are 2 & a Half other stands in the ground & 1200
Odd in the TJS which consists of mainly block a & a few near the back of block b c & d who make comtinuos noise .

I don't troll people I speak the Truth.

Our support is dire & has been for years
Whether I was there or not.
Ive only not been there for 2 full years but the the 50 years previous & the 2 & a bit I was on & off to that I was.
So don't give it large like your some sort of top boy you silly sausage you're an Orient fan !
Silly Sausage
Nope this ain’t it. f*** this top boy nonsense. You don’t go for whatever reason, you have no right to call out people who spend their money and show their support in whatever way they choose. Whether the fans are noisy or silent doesn’t absolve the players and management from criticism. The stadium has been overwhelmingly supportive of Wellens despite the poo poo we’ve consistently seen since Stockport away.
I don't go because I am Housebound through Illness .
I have every right to moan about fans who moan
Last season I gave the club shop & orient tv a grand of my hard earned. & Ive spent about 250 on me & about 300 on my great nephew & its not even Christmas yet
So don't tell me I have no right to moan because I don't go Dinlo
I give the club as much of my dosh as plenty of others if not more.

I’m a big RW fan but if he does f*** off, so long as he takes his boy with him, we’ll be fine with this squad.

You'd think they were close to deaths door the way some of them moan & are desperate to see one last orient win.

Did Lucy Freeman passing away at 35
teach them nothing ?

Life's about Living & putting as much juice into it as you can, unless you physically cant.
Some of them are so seriously deluded about life in general it's F#cking laughable

If he drops WJ1 and plays any one of the subs instead today, we go in at half time ahead. It’s that simple.

You can’t expect to beat teams with just 10 players.
Complete and utter rubbish as always. No way were we ever going in with a lead at half time. WJ1 as you like to call him was no worse than anyone else on the pitch - they were all bloody useless.

Is there anything Man United related you won't knock one out over? The squad is fine, we shouldn't be relegated with Richie here but equally should survive if we get our next appointment half right.

Hate that it’s turned into a Richie hate fest as we will all always love him for getting us out of league 2. But enough is enough now. We’ve only played well for maybe 3 months in the last 4 seasons.

I don’t think there’s any hate. Just disappointment that we've got to this point. Majority of fans back Wellens, but not slavishly. His constant selection of Nepo is baffling considering the options we have and his non-showing for media duties just looks petulant.

Yeah maybe hate was a bit strong. But none of us will ever hate him is what I meant. League one doesn’t seem to agree with him tho

If you cannot see how far out of his depth is, there’s no hope for you.

The players know. This seasons squad is going to be lost just like last seasons was, all because of one decision. It’s bad enough for the players on the pitch having to carry him, but can you imagine being Dobra or Scarlett or Oyekunle or Gilchrist or Theo etc and sitting on the bench whilst he starts another game? You’d be fuming.

He’s supposed to be our 10. The main man that gets on the ball and creates things. Playing in pockets of space between the midfield and back line. He doesn’t and cannot do that. Granted he puts a couple of nice passes in when he drops into the right back spot to pick the ball up without any pressure but that isn’t anywhere near enough.

First half we matched them which considering we were effectively playing with 10 men was an achievement in itself.

Definitely something strange going on,
Let PT front the technical area again today and the post match interview etc
All this talk of new stadiums is great, but the situation with Richie is more important at the moment.
