We’ve found to our cost in the past that football has a nasty habit of biting you in the arse . A lot of hard work still to do. It’s not over until it’s over

I remember at half time at Wembley in 2014, I was stood near a couple of guys who were already celebrating victory with the overconfidence only some young people have, and I just knew in that second it was all over.

This is Orient, there are no guarantees.

Half-Time in that game was truly the pinnacle of my Orient supporting career. It's never been better and has been all downhill from there.

That’s the mentality Wellens is drilling out of the club. We aren’t plucky little Orient anymore. We’re a well run great club who play good football.

Well said Biggsy. It's in the bag. We don't need no more negative talk round these here parts.

The only doubt is if we'll finish as champions or runners up.

In 2014 at the playoff final, my young son asked me at half-time - are in the Championship? I said I hope so but this is Leyton Orient. Would apply same mindset, now. We are in a great position however there are 28 more games. Confident yes, but everyone has to keep working hard.

Not sure they'll get a bus in. Maybe the Papa Johns moped guy could give each of the players a seater round the pitch one by one?

Well done. I trust you'll be dredging up all the posts where you predicted something incorrectly - in the interests of balance of course!

Wasn’t going to due to the price hikes but the wave of good feeling after last night means I’m going to purchase my first ever season ticket on pay day next Tuesday.

I’m sure the board will match my commitment over the summer.

Well done to all on this amazing journey with T&T so far.
