If we are going to play with 3 CBs we need another one in the door. I’ll be satisfied with a winger/striker until Jan though

What you on about? You got to be a relation of tuffers if not his twin, if I wanted to stir the pot I’d put some thing better than that on here. I dunno kids hey🤷‍♀️🙊
You are just constantly posting crap.(The same old) Again you haven’t bothered to listen to or totally ignored Wellens saying at the weekend that the club are being really supportive (Ling included) spending budget meant for January to bring in players now, he also said they are trying to bring in a speedy striker but you are still bleating on talking complete self indulgent crap.

Pretty sure I know who you are under a different alias on this board.
Let me make this crystal clear to you ( tip of the Jiz), I will post what ever I want, whenever I want (within reason and LSN permission ) so you or your pitiful band of trolls on here will not stop me from doing so,and I would advise (if I may) anyone else to do the same, so you and your band of on line bullies will not stop me having my opinion.The day I take notice of you and the likes of Solomon will be the day hell freezes over🙊

I don't think 3 CBs is a full time measure, just something we had to do to get George on the pitch (who can't press) when Piggot isn't fit enough to press.

Not sure Piggot is a pressing player or ever will be ?max if we do play 3 at the back what then happens to Theo?who arguably is probably our best player at the moment, don’t think playing as a wing back really suits him. If Thompson isn’t going to be available (is he ever) then think we will need a CB🙊

3 at the back will be used sparingly as Suggested by Richie after Blackpool.

Richie is being let down big time here.
If they keep undermining him, he'll walk in the end.
Other teams constantly sign players, they appear not to have any trouble doing so, but for reasons I cannot comprehend, we do

Let down by who? Can you honestly say that the money minders are OR is it the wanted players or other teams doing it?

Even so. Richie said on the LO Down that they are possibly looking at bringing in a CB, which is good

There seems to be a lot you don’t comprehend which comes as no surprise to most on here, why not just come out and blame Ling because we all know that’s what you are implying.

Some people on here think that we should be signing players every day because that would make us a better team 🙄🙄

Remember playing Bristol City a few years ago and Freeman ran rings around the Orient team at the time…….he was a quality player then without doubt.

Very embarrassing, someone (no names mentioned) has let Richie down big time.

Perhaps we've reached new levels and injured the potential signing before they even join the club. Just imagine someone made them a coffee at the training ground with the dodgy water when discussing a move :xxx

Not signing another competent CB is going to seriously f*ck us later on in the season when 3 of the existing ones get injured and/or suspended.

Not having adequate cover for Theo Archibald is also going to f*ck us.

Everyone can see it coming.

We should probably pay Thompson up if he's never going to play.

I remember a quote that he's a good personality around the team so almost a coach by this point perhaps. Maybe a loan around January once recovered to allow him to get match time and sort a move for summer as surely he won't get another contract with us?
