Let's take em up the Tower

1-0 Orient Cox 3 minutes

2-2

Moncur, Ruel.

Ruel rested, Edwards back up front. We dominate possession first half without creating chances. Blackpool attack us second half when they realise we have no goal threat and go ahead. Sully comes on for last 20 minutes and we pinch an equaliser. 1-1.

Blackpool are a good team so I think I would be happy enough with a draw . 1-1.

I am sorry about this: I have a bad feeling, when I supported Chelsea, Blackpool were a bogey team, Osgood suffered a broken leg at Blackpool & despite lowly status, often turned Chelsea over, causing acute embarassement. Going to the Playoff Final at Cardiff, we were staying at Carmarthen, & came from the opposite direction of most Orient fans. The pip squeak ticket inspector shuffled past large quantities of Blackpool fans, and on inspecting our tickets, whispered from the corner of his mouth " do the business this afternoon " We failed miserably.
I shall be watching from the comfort of my own home. A few days ago was my Birthday. A Million years ago when I was 21, on my Birthday, Chelsea hammered Blackpool about 6-0. Let's hope my Birthday charm does the business tonight. 3-0 to the O's.

I would be happy with a draw - 4pts from Oxford away and Blackpool at home would be very acceptable.

3-1 Pigott hat-trick. West Stand manages a delicate ripple of applause whilst the South Stand goes into melt-down.
(Only joking )

Found it hard to predict this season so will go for my usual - won't lose.

1-0. Late winner.

1-1
