Independent Leyton Orient Forum

No Turley in yesterdays game, perhaps on holiday, slight injury ?
I was impressed with all the young players and feel a bit more optimistic for next season.
At first glance, Lee Angol looks a good forward, tricky and quick. From where I was standing in the first half, never got much of a close view of Conor Wilkinson, looked like he did ok, also scored ! I moved my position and was then ( still in the first half ) on the right side of the Os defence. I was impressed with Kyprianou who was playing on the right side of the back three with Myles Judd playing in front of him. Hector looked a classy player, played some nice controlled balls out from the back and always seemed to have time, never rushed. Reminded me ( big stretch of the imagination and perhaps wrong ! ) of a Glen Roeder type player, if so, then he would be a real asset ! Lastly, had a nice large burger with onions for only £2, went around 30 minutes into the game and only had a short wait. I had moved from my position behind the Harlow goal due to all the smoke from a stall selling barbecued Burgers that were double the price at £4, rather pointless I thought and that smoke was too near the pitch for me to stay in that position, made me cough !!

I think you may need new glasses
Turley was certainly there yesterday was doing pre training before kick off and also at half time just didn’t feature in the game

Just as a side note Wilkinson limped off at half time

I was not watching the pre training. I just watched the two halves of the game and was over wise occupied during the half time break. No need for sarcastic remarks please...e.g ''new glasses'' !!

Angol looks like he’s going to be fun to watch. Infuriating at times too.

Link please

Well considering he walked around the whole of the ground twice with Brophy in the first half and by himself twice in the second half in full view of everyone stopping to sign autographs having photos taken etc it would suggest your binoculars need adjusting

I obviously missed him, I was concentrating on watching the game........ not players walking around.... I did see Brophy walk by though.
Anyway, not a big deal is it ? Well certainly not to me !!

No big deal
But he defo wasn’t on holiday or injured

Seems like it, but he is not as bad as some for ageism on this forum. Still getting older comes to us all and one day these characters who dislike older people will be pensioners themselves, that is if they get that far !!

That you have already confirmed.

I agree I struggle with him as a traditional full back but push him more forward, give him some latitude and confidence and who knows!

Some years back everybody was against Shane Tudor ... then they had to watch the season highlight DVD and count the number of his crosses that led directly to goals.

Yeah did well with the link up. However, he was a guilty for the first two goals we conceded. He got done for both goals and got twisted up and those crosses ended up on the head of what’s his name and goal both times. They targeted him both times and done him both times. He’s was not good enough last season. I hope he’s better this season.

Ling is certainly nowhere near to being anything like as good as some of the best right backs that I remember playing for the Os. First right back I ever saw play was Stan Charlton .....hard act to be getting anywhere near as good as he was !!

Is that a threat?

Oh now I’m ageist

Lucky7 is about 60 as well so Sid must be ancient!

Really? Could you ask which ever dept it is to give me my freedom pass then and whatever other freebies/discounts you get at the big six zero cos they’ve missed me out

Last time I was talking to Mr Attlee when he was asking for my vote in 1945, I was 72 years old !!
So does that make me ancient ?

I can confirm Lucky7 is not yet 60 ..........59 maybe

Spot on there Sid.

Stan Charlton was a great right back as was Dave Webb for the O's.
Sam Ling is two million miles away as a right back !!!

Just what we need - another sicknote.

As per the earlier postings the whole team was replaced at half time.
