Should've kept my mouth shut.
Not for the first time.
Oh I haven't blocked you over here, hang on....

Done.

Clueless.
Yes Ross is clueless and not going to use the goal poacher he has sitting on the bench.
Sorry to say, he was Lings choice despite showing time and again that he is not up to doing the job. Keep playing like this and it could well be that our fate will be decided on what happens to Macclesfield this season.
You are right Sid. It is remarkable how brown-nosers like Milano can’t see that.

Brophy makes a last ditch professional foul as Grimsby break 4 v 2. Somehow only gets a yellow. Lucky boy.

Embleton got very lucky today. Deserved to lose but got a get out of jail free card with the pen. Performance no better overall.

Grateful for a point today but what a sh*te performance, only 2 shots on target the whole match and one of those was a penalty.
Embletons tactics are unbelievable, can't wait to see who our new signings will be !

A poor game between two poor sides. Orient had the better chances, didn't take either of their two opportunities.

Angol isolated upfront ineffective again. As a lone striker Harrold looks a better option.
It's plain baffling that we're not playing with two up front - it's making us so much easier to defend against. Today we faced a dodgy keeper who couldn't cope with crosses or players near him and we didn't look to exploit that.

Commentators were all saying how badly we needed the extra man up front. Hopefully Dulcet Dave will put that to Embleton in the post match interview since Lee Boyce and the others just wanted to tickle his balls the other night.

Why did we bring on Harold as another centre forward and then banish Angol to the wing. And why was Wilkinson constantly on the wing. I do not understand why we play just a lone striker up front nearly all the time.
But I really hope the penalty gives Angol a bit of confidence he seems to so lacking in it in front of goal.
