Happe down injured, doesn’t look great, hamstring?
That’s a worry as Beckles just back from injury
Cooper on
RW won’t be happy, this is why he didn’t want Turns to leave.

The amount of stick Ruel gets for neigh on a one in three return at League One, a lot of it not as striker is crazy, no penalties too

Not good after just 15 mins

Cole looks ridiculous for this level

4th good save by Brynn.

We've been so unlucky with injuries this season its ridiculous . Considering we're currently ninth , if it wasn't for our injury problems I'm sure we'd already be in the play off spots .

Riding our luck at the moment

They are battering us after our goal. Brynn doing well so far aside from that dodgy punch

Yep agree, Devante Cole looks too good for L1.
Barnsley look dangerous from long throws and set pieces.
Sol Brynn already pulled off a few important saves.

Could deal with having an outlet on our left. Only time it’s come down there we scored. O’Neill barley had a touch

Very open game, definitely more goals in this game.
Both teams look good on the break going forward.
Brown needs to help Gailbraith when Barnsley attack as they look dangerous down their left.

Good 1st half by The O`s. I like O`Neill.

Brynn`s been excellent.

COME ON ORIENT!!!!

HT.
Had a bit of luck, but the boys did well.
So far so good.

What to do about Moncur?

He’s had a decent first half and he’s probably our best hold up player. But you can see when they break that the midfield is overrun. Do you stick and try to use his creativity to get another or twist and put pratley in there to sure things up and allow Brown to help Galbraith out a bit?

Come on Orient keep it going

Sounds like a very good match and O's doing very well. Expect a Barnsley onslought second half COYO's!!!

I just can’t see Barnsley not scoring but we also look dangerous in attack. We’ve put ourselves in a very good position

Just worried about our back line with injuries moating up we may need to recall Thompson for Barnet if needed

Agree about O'Neill. Need to try and bring him more into the game but his closing down, defensive support and awareness have been more than good for a player making his debut. Some good touches and a great cushion header too.

Overall we have competed well and are unrecognisable from pre Xmas.

Just need another goal to settle the game down

Ruel looks like he has picked up an injury.

Another injury, Ruel
But don’t worry Piggot is coming on

Ruel off injured - Piggot on.

go into "lockdown" mode ! -- we'll not score again

Still don’t get why Piggot comes on and we don’t give one of the young Loanees a chance, Piggot offers absolutely nothing
I hope he proves me wrong, but pretty sure he won’t
