Good news
Stevenage are a danger though

Watched the Walsall game. Northampton were poor. No shots on target and no stand out player. On that showing they won’t trouble us

Fair play to him, doing it on a fraction of our budget.

Yet Newport did & just lost to Swindon &
we dominated both &only got 1 point
from those 2 games .
Its a funny old game eh

No Sam Hoskins again for Northampton tonight for the second game running. I see he has scored around half of their goals and therefore probably a big part of their team.

Anyone know how long he is out for (presumed injured) as we play them Saturday week?

Stevenage game 90 + 16 minutes .

That’s ridiculous (unless there was a serious injury). I can see refs being asked, finally, to crack down on timewasting

3 goals & 7 yellows shouldnt cause that kind of delay . Have to wait for the match report . 106 minutes is shocking though .

This wouldn’t have helped …

BBC: “Unfortunately, the game was marred by Norris suffering facial injuries after a high boot by Sutton's Louis John, whose team-mate Jon Barden later had to be carried off on a stretcher with a nasty-looking ankle injury.”

Steve Evans is one of those managers you hate when he is with another club, but would like at your club because he is a winner.



Colin W is another like that. The sort of person you love to hate

You just know it’ll be us v them play off final

My hope for us is that we'll spend the season in the top 3, juggling places 1,2 and 3, well clear of the play off places. I love us being top but automatic promotion is what I really want, and believe we are capable of.

Yes, I agree promotion is the main priority but I would still love us to go up as Champions and why not . I agree we still haven't got out of second gear yet . When you watch us play we're very exciting going forward and always look like we're going to score . How many time could you say that about any Orient sides of the past . I can only think of one and that was our team from 2014. If we can just cut out the stupid mistakes at the back I reckon we're in for a very exciting season . Trust me , when we really click we're going to knock some team for six .

Wellens is cut from the same cloth.

Saving 6 for Northampton?

Friend of my youngest son played for Stevenage last season and was one of 19 players released.
He said he was “horrible “ and he was glad to leave but I bet Stevenage fans love him
