Adu-Adjei is one the players that Matt Harrold will be making decisions about at Bournemouth next season.

A very good half for us, but I'd like to see more direct forward stuff, rather than this back and side stuff. Unless we see a different Shrews 2nd half yhe chance is there for more goals.

Seems a bit disappointing though.

Good to finish the season with a win - well done O's. A season that might have been different had it not been for the injuries.

Wanted comfortable mid-table safety at the start of the season so mission accomplished in that regard. As above what might have been had Richie been given the striker he wanted in January.

A big summer recruitment cycle ahead.

Galbraith and Obeiro both superb today.

Adu Adjei would be ok for a season loan.

Sweeney and Prat’s both need to be kept on.

Yes.

We went a narrow 4-3-1-2. Galbraith was my MOTM.

Today was as direct as we’ve been in forever.

No wingers, no width, we just went straight at them through the middle.

I can only echo what others have said . I would gladly had taken 11th place at the beginning of the season . However I feel we could have clinched a playoff spot but Injuries have blighted our season . Looking forward to next season League One is going to be more competitive so it's imperative we get our Summer recruitment right . Also , I noticed there was no sign of Moncur or Pigott today . Have they both played their last game in an Orient shirt .? I would just like to finish by thanking the players ,Richie and all the coaching staff for all their hard work and a decent first season back in League One . That gives us something to build on for next season .

Tom James looked like he was playing for a new contract today. Probably the most interested he’s looked during a match this season and it’s for a dead rubber. I’d keep him for another year at least if we can.

I rate Tom very highly and would love him to stay but I think he can be a bit frustrating at times .

Fair comment about TJ, he did look the part today.

Richie needs to take charge of the summers recruitment but I’ve got really, really high hopes for next season.

They are both under contract next season so very unlikely the club can afford to pay them off.
Maybe there’s a 2 for 1 deal on at Boco Island.

Totally agree, RW needs to take total charge of the summers recruitment with no interference at all from the so called transfer committee if they are serious about keeping RW and promotion next season. No if or buts.
