Theo has been horrific, passing, crossing, almost should be subbed be that bad

There is just no direct attacking, it's like they are all scared of actually taking a man or losing possession, Ruel is a bit of a wildcard but at least at one point he tried beating the full back one on one, instead it's just pass, pass, backwards, pass, pass, ponderous, pass, random cross with no real aim or quality

That's quite a surprise. We've got to half time without scoring.

Anyone really, he is playing that bad, Gailbraith, Sanders, hell Ayegi left wing, Piggott up top, I know he is a fan favourite but Theo is 100% letting the team down, he just keeps putting awful crosses and passes in, with Graham you knew ping, ping, ping everytime great cross, Theo is all over the place with his delivery, I honestly don't think a week or two of him on the bench would do him any harm

4 which is massive, considering how little Orient score!

This myth that Graham was some sort of mega star is really odd. The guy didn’t start any games and when he did come on he’d ping a few balls in which never resulted in a goal anyway.

That's because the ball was being pinged in for Pigott .

Our form has completely fallen apart since he got injured, don't think it's unreasonable to say he was an important player for us.

Just before HT, rolling the ball back and forth across the halfway line.

Just after HT Ruel wins a free kick while breaking into the opponent's half. Two passes and the ball was back with our keeper

Our whole approach is really awful and worryingly lacking in urgency.

What ever way you look at this, it’s diabolical, there’s no positive to take out of this so far. Other teams slaughter us when we go down to ten

Absolute nonsense. The bloke barely played more than 20 mins a game. How can the form of the side be pinned on him being injured?

The mythologising of how good and important Graham was is really peculiar.

As much as I want us to score I honestly cannot see where a goal is going to come from.
Cheltenham look more likely to score than us.

Too many poor performances from Orient players today.

Ruel, control and 1st touch is terrible
Theo same as above
Happe distribution has been terrible
Hunt, just call him hoove ball Hunt
Brown is not a FB
Brynn passing has been awful

He started most of the games during our purple patch but sure.
