Not sure what the point of this is. When he says he had no influence you won't believe him anyway.
You are 100%correct,...iwont believe him if he says Ling has no influence in his decisions, because that's not true, just as I don't believe Boris Johnson when he says he's going to get a deal . People lie a lot you know.
Exactly, you try & kid us you're a genuine supporter. Only a couple of tools fall for it though.

Your good at calling people offensive names aren't you?
I've been a supporter since April 66. I've followed Orient all over this country, I even discharged myself from hospital in 1978, so I could go to a game.
But you just go on believing what you want
Ever thought, maybe, you're the biggest tool of the lot?

Why am I not surprised that you should be in a hospital?

Offensive ??? I haven't even started yet, but if I have any serious grievances I would front it out in person.

And how do you know in both cases? Are you a friend of them? In Boris's case friends of the other 27 leaders as well, as he has made an offer.

Were you placed under pressure to stand down as interim manager?
Categorically - NO!

How much interference did you endure from club ‘figures’ to pick certain players?
None whatsoever!
He said that for any player but specifically for the implication that he is pressurised to pick Sam Ling.

Have you been offered positions elsewhere?
Don't think that was asked but it was clear that his heart is at Orient

Did you ever stand on bricks in a photo to make yourself appear taller?
Yes (oh, alright, that wasn't asked! ;) )

Ross, do you find it difficult to understand humourless people in your everyday role?
He doesn't read this board or do social Media in general so he doesn't know any humourless people :D

He also said he couldn't comment on what has been happening with the Ekpiteta contract situation - as in he knows something but isn't saying.

Thought it was a good show, slightly long but interesting content rather than filler throughout.

Comments regarding Myles Judd, poetry and Shakespeare a bit unnecessary, funny though,

Thanks to the hundreds of people who have listened so far.

Think it's fair to say Ross answered all the questions (including forum questions) we put to him openly and honestly.

It's a long episode but we spoke at length about him stepping down as manager.

Hope it puts a few myths/conspiracies to bed.

Just directly calling you out for being a poisonous Coward. So easy to be the big man & keyboard/smart phone warrior, just don't think you would be so brave sharing your pearls of wisdom to peoples faces.

Simple solution, skip the parts you're not interested in.

Ross talks about the managerial situation in the first 50 or so minutes and the questions from fans are towards the end if that helps.

If I have an opinion, I'll say it in any form. Online, in the phone, in an email, etc etc, and TO THEIR FACES. I've been saying what I believe for 55 years, since I was a teenager, probably before you was born.
The day any of us can't say what our opinions are, will be the day democracy is dead.
