Re: Meltdowns
Thing is the meltdowns usually come from the Oh I’ve been supporting Orient 60 years blah blah blah brigade they seem to forget about bucket collections etc etc the club has had to go through over the years fact is if it weren’t for T&T you wouldn’t have a club to moan about full stop

Re: Meltdowns
My comment was a little more nuanced then your general, vague rant, drawing on a direct comparison with our plight exactly 3 years ago with where we are today.tuffers#1 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 11:59 pmWeve already covered thatLeytonOstone wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 11:44 pm Sometimes there is a reason for meltdowns...not so long ago (2 Jan 2016) we had 26 points from 24 games - look familiar? That didn't end well. Yes there was a clown in charge, and the team went into their own meltdown but until points are in the bank people will vent their frustration with c**p performances.
Do keep up.

Honestly cheers me up No End , knowing how brutally a defeat affects them.
We're Orient fans , God knows we're used to losing. The problem is now losing nearly every game is growing tiring. What makes things worse is our recent history over the past six years . Remember what we've been through and what it took for us to get back . That's why the, "Old Fools" as you've called us are a bit more sensitive than previous seasons .
So your only sensitivity is your own feelings .
Not that the club had the Heart ripped out of it because of Justins death . Selfish f*ckers arent you
Perhaps you didn't get that - do keep up.

Re: Meltdowns
To me, a supporter is a person who goes regularly to watch his team and is thus SUPPORTING them financially and also supporting them by being present at the matches. A follower is someone who follows the results and watches them on TV etc, may occasionally go to the odd match.Howling Mad Murdock wrote: ↑Wed Jan 01, 2020 11:25 pm Tuffers#1 is lucky as he also supports Celtic who win almost every week.![]()

Turmoil has set i for a very different reason.
Club will survive this event & WILL NOT BE RELEGATED.
