Yup and strengthening the squad, glad we've took points against the poorer sides they're the ones we have to put away

Don't want to be anywhere near that bottom 8 relegation scrap, where we are now is where we need to be staying as the baseline

I'm absolutely delighted with that result . Winning with payers playing out of position and tired . Well done Orient ,fantastic stuff . Now for a two week break because Blackpool are playing in the FA Cup next week . A chance to rest and strengthen the squad before the Portsmouth game .

Great win today, still need signings in the transfer window.Squad is far to thin and has too many players that are not of League 1 standard.

They’re averaging less than a point per game. Not going to happen.

I've just listened to Richie's post match interview . I could listen to his interviews all night . Anyway he said there won't be much movement in the transfer market but he would like another forward player. I was wondering if that would be a new striker ( Kelman ?) or a winger

That was over 4 games, not 24 games, tuffers.

We don’t need to worry about the bottom 4 (or, randomly, the bottom 6).
