Josh Koroma

[Disoriented]

E.P.A.S. strikes again.

[Lovejoy]

Josh not in the matchday squad again. Strange situation. Are they seriously of the belief that he's not worth a place on the bench? Ridiculous.

Fascinating weekly Koroma update. A true service to the Board.

Whilst I’m not looking myself, it’s always nice to know how well our ex players that go on to do better things.

Didn’t judge Dread used to post on all ex player movements? Nothing wrong there either, remember once an O always an O.

He did until he got captured by the Angel Gang.

Huddersfield clearly thought that Koroma was a good prospect for the future and purchased him on that basis. Perhaps he may be loaned out to perhaps a top Division two team or a good Division one team all as part of his learning process.

Well come back Sid

It took a while before Bonne featured for Charlton and look at him now. It took an injury to a fellow forward to get his chance but still, he has grabbed it.

However with Koroma, his team are doing poorly yet the manager has yet to push him forward to a regular seat on the bench. At the end of the day, an increased salary is not a big consolation when you are not selected for first team football.

Hope it works out for him there but not sure it will.

I had my reservations at the time, not about Josh moving on to a higher league team but on moving far away from his roots in London. I think he would have done better to try to get a move to a team in an around the London area, like Bonne did. Josh is only young and that way he would have had his friends and family around him when needed.

He's a big boy and is well capable of making his own decisions. He's stepped up 3 divisions and it's only been 3 months. I doubt he's panicking.

I was wondering where you had got to, Sid?
Welcome back.

Yes, he's 'a big boy' but he's young and inexperienced, and therefore, more liable to drop a boll--k. I think Mr Bishop has a valid point.

Oh, thank god, the Josh Koroma thread is back!

I think a young and inexperienced professional footballer is far better positioned to make decisions about their future than a couple of fans on the Orient forum.

Welcome back.

Just here on the odd occasion now, thanks for your welcoming words though !!

[tuffers#1]

He seems to be well integrated to the 1st team squad & Fowley seems to like him.

No doubt there are players who are on premier league wages &
Youd assume they want there moneys worth .

Any contracts will probably finish this season & JK
will get more game time at the midddle to latter of the season.

I have been busy on other projects, one of which was trying to find out via fault finding, reading workshop manual and various researching as to why my car kept cutting out when getting to around 70 degrees Centigrade coolant temperature. Its a 1998 Hyundai Lantra estate car, bullet proof up to now and a faithful servant to me for so many years so gave it my best shot to repair if possible. The car is pre computer scanner times, so just a matter of old fashioned trial and error with amongst other things, thermostat changed ( it was not opening ) and testing various sensors. Got it at last, it was the a faulty crankshaft position sensor, got a new one on ebay at £6.95 including post and packing included ( fraction of the price of genuine Hyundai part ) , ordered on a Thursday night and delivered by royal mail on the Saturday. Old part taken out and new one fitted in around 20 or so minutes and hey, ho running perfect now !

I no longer even look under the bonnet Sid. Used to enjoy tinkering around with engines and do the odd repair. My daughter had a Saturday job in the local spares shop, a good source of advice, and car breakers provided cheap spares too.

What I don’t miss is the patching up of rusty doors and sills.

A bit of DIY followed by washing in swarfega. Wouldn’t know where to start now

Modern cars are not so easy to repair or accessible to do work on as the older cars were, especially the rear wheel drive cars where you had plenty of room around the engine to do all your jobs and also a lot easier to change clutches etc. Years ago,even as teenagers, many of us used to do most car and motorbike repairs ourselves. Remember the regular de-coking of the engine pistons and heads etc, replacing/cleaning the spark plugs and setting the spark plug gap at 25 thou and the points gap at 15 thou !! It was a regular thing to change the points, rotor arms and distributor heads especially in the winter if the car struggled to start and remember the reliable and easy to work on SU carburetors ( mini's to name for just one car, had SU carbs ) As I was a maintenance engineer, in the 1970s to late 1980s I used to do many welding repairs ( I owned a very good quality MIg welder) and would be be working most weekends at my parents small farm workshop, repairing people cars, welding sills, top suspension plates, under-body repairs, resprays etc. A welder who worked in my factory ( it was a large wine and spirits bottling plant ) tried to fit new sills to a mates car in the drive in part of the firms workshop, he had not done car welding before and used the old fashioned oxy acetylene welding equipment to do the job ( without the managers permission to do so ! ) the car caught fire and they just managed to get the fire under control before it got really bad ! The car was a write off and both guys concerned got written warnings. He could have caused a major fire in the factory if the car fire had not been put out before it got out of control !!
