Re: Memories on here later please guys
I sincerely hope to have no memories after 3:00 this afternoon.
All I remember after the Wrexham play-off was singing Orient up, West Ham down to a bunch of bemused hammers in the pub.

Let's get the job done before we start worrying about documenting tonight. No-one wants to hear memories of us traipsing home in the rain to check on the Play Off dates.

Memory - nobody taking heed of the “keep off the pitch request” and the total abysmal efforts by stewards to do anything.
Plus - lifting the trophy, the smiles, the happiness - 13-14 season and Wembley heartache is now expunged from me

Shaking Brill, JE and Nigel T's hands at the end on the lap our honour. All involved have wrote themselves into club legend now, amazing.
Also Kent falling / sliding around the South Stand penalty area, might need some new suit trousers now Mr Teague

Re: Memories on here later please guys
The outbursts of joy at the end was amazing. Thought I’d want to down a few beers to celebrate, but decided to just wander off & bask in a solitary glow of satisfaction instead.
On the way back to Ldn Bridge a fair few Hammers, Spuds & even Millwall fans had a thumbs up and gave congratulations. Which was nice.

The crowd chanting 'We are going up, we are going up' as the Salford score filtered through. A young chap in the East Stand standing up, chanting away and twirling his Orient scarf in the air.
Macauley Bonne going mad when the final whistle went and jumping on an Orient fan who had invaded the pitch.

Yes, a nice touch. What a day it was. By no means a classic game but who cares? I've waited 46 years for a Championship win and it feels pretty good.

Me too - good stuff. And in the chaos immediately after the final whistle Bonne can clearly be seen shouting 'f*** off Salford' repeatedly!

Re: Memories on here later please guys
70 year old but I admit to shedding the odd tear today. The anticipation, the worry after Salford scored early, our inability to create chances, Hartlepool scoring, then again. The slow realisation that we may actually, for once, not screw up. The utter relief at the final whistle.
Emotions took a real battering of late. Emotional scenes at the end, lap with we are the champions playing. A situation made all the sweeter after our recent past.
Even dreams come true for Orient fans. Today I am one massive, happy, bunny. Ecstatic at the prospect of L2 football.
Happy happy happy. Will sleep well tonight. Fecking brilliant. This squad will live in the memory. McAnuff in particular, a true leader. Happy days.

Not being able to see the players lift the trophy cos a load of selfish arseholes refused repeated requests to leave the pitch.

If the fans can be identified, would like to see them given a ban next season.

Nice to see Phil Hoadley in the North Stand chatting to people and having photos taken with fans.
Stood in practically the same place that I was in when he scored that goal against Chelsea.
Been watching the O''s since 1966, must say I had a tear in my eye today just wandering about on the pitch knowing we were champions.

There was a guy on a mobility scooter who (without wanting to be cruel) looked very old and frail. Our eyes met and we smiled at each other.
The young uns may be prancing around on the pitch, but it means as much to the oldest amongst us.
