As the whiners on here constantly mewl; we're so slow to do our business we are likely one of the last in the division to bring in players.
What a shame we didn't keep up with Cheltenham, Fleetwood, Port Vale, and Carlisle last season eh. Moving quickly really worked for them.

Re: It Seems We Cannot Compete...........
Same old, same old despite assurances that we woudnt be late in making signings as usual.
All that will be left are sick notes and players that are past it or other clubs want rid of because they are not up to it.

Re: It Seems We Cannot Compete...........
Being pro-Orient doesn’t mean I have to buy into everything the owners say.Monkey Boy wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 10:25 amSurprised you said that Biggsy thought you were pro Orient? Personally at this point I’m very disappointed in the club,even if they do sign 5/6 players we would have missed out on some very good signings already. After all the rhetoric from the club and Chairman in particular at end of last season and the beginning of this. I won’t be renewing next season if things don’t dramatically improve,once bitten twice shy.BiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 3:34 amTravis talks bollocks.Adz wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 1:06 am
You've obviously not listened to any of Travis's stuff then. He's got people lined up to invest in a project in London that involves building a new stadium amongst other facilities. He can't find anyone who wants to invest where we currently are. He's made it clear that they are working with the borough to find a suitable location, but this stuff all takes a long time. It'll be 5-10 years before they make this a reality, but I think it will happen.

Saved the club, he was part of a consortium, yes. Even financial keel? He talks about the club losing money every year. Yeah, he was the owner when we got Richie and Justin but you also have Steve Davis, Embleton twice, Fletcher, Jobi and Jackett.ChorizO wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 11:36 amIs this the same Travis who saved our club, put us on a financial even keel, engineered us getting out of the National League and presided over his appointed management tram who won us promotion to League 1?BiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 3:34 amTravis talks bollocks.Adz wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2024 1:06 am

Asking for a friend.
He’s also the owner who slags fans off for not spending money in the stadium.
He’s done a lot for the club but that doesn’t mean he deserves an unfettled ride from the supporters.

It's a shame you didn't voice that opinion on here at the time, cos now it just looks like you're making things up.
