Well done Orient.

Nolan - Reading 0-0 FT.

I thought our play off hopes had gone but you know what , we're right back in there . COME ON YOU O's !!!

All over.
Well done you O's.

HOW are we still in the mix?

Yes!!!! Well done Orient!! Not pretty but just what was needed. 7th , it's all on.

So right, we are not only back in it but with a hugely better goal difference than anyone around us

Charlie Kelman is now top scorer in League One with 19 goals.

Told everyone it wasn’t over, twice now

A tremendous achievement and proves Richie was right . I don't want any of our on loan players to go now . I want to keep them all . I wish the club could buy them all but that's life .

It's been on for a while, but it's not been solely in our hands - we've had to rely on teams like Bolton making a real dog's breakfast of it.

You did indeed . Only two points outside the playoffs and with only four games remaining we're right back in it . I have to say I couldn't be prouder of Richie and all the players to get us in to this position . This is turning out to be a very exciting end to our league season . Well done Orient .

Got to be a bit better, Crawley should've gone 1-0 up in the first half and against a better team that is a tougher task but a win is a win again, it's hard to get a read right now but it's results that matter

Yes ,sorry my bad . Anyway it''s still virtually the same thing . One win with Reading losing and we're sixth

Reading's last 4 are very soft and we'll probably need them to drop points in at least 2 games to even have a sniff. They've either got relegation battlers or teams with nothing to play for. We have Wycombe, who could still be in with a shout of the top 2 and then a trip to Huddersfield is a tough final game - although at rate they're falling apart, hopefully they'll be on the beach by then too.

Thing is it’s almost unpredictable. They played against 10 man Northampton and couldn’t win but best Wycombe a few weeks ago

Who knows what if any punishment reading will get from the EFL , could be a points deduction !

Great result, 2nd half we were far superior. Don't like Crawley at all

Reading have to play Lincoln who are far from pushovers us Bristol Rovers who will be desperate for points too
I wouldn’t call that an easy run in

After 55 or so seasons, it still isn't any easier supporting the Os. Blood pressure on overdrive.

Delighted with the win today & the play off agony continues. At least its not dull. It would be amazing if we made it after sitting pretty, throwing it away & then coming back. It is the hope that's killing me & the prospect of going to the Wycombe game!
We need to win the next 2 but won't & will miss out. I've nailed my colours to the mast.
But congratulations to Richie & the team for an excellent season & beating last season's points total.

Northampton looking after us, just as they did on 6 May 2006
