Rename a player ?

I guess if everything else is up for sponsorship, why not?

1 year deal is a bit odd. Presumably thinks he’s better than L1?

Neither is employing a racist. Each to their own I suppose

Or the club aren’t sure if he’s good enough for L1
Either way I’m happy he’s a decent CB

This and also puts us in a strong negotiating position with Happe now we have 3 CBs signed up for next season already

All we need to do now is sign a striker who marries a person while already legally married to someone else.
Then we can sing “a racist at the back, a bigamist in attack, Orient climbing up the football league”

If you don’t think he’s good enough, don’t sign him. Sign someone who is.

(I think he is).

Listening to what was said about the incident, what RW has said and what our players have said, he deserves a second chance. If it’s good enough for the people that know a lot more about it than we do then it’s good enough for me.

Good luck to him and the team for next season.

I wonder if this means Happe is going

Makes me think he thinks if he has a decent year he will be going up a division again at the end of the season regardless of where Orient are

BiggsyMalone , the messageboard saint 😇. Look , we’ve already spoken about this at length on the other thread . Pratley and Beckes know a lot more about this than we do and they have both accepted it . I trust their judgment so if they are OK with it then so am I. Anyway I’m very pleased Simpson has signed for us again . From what I saw of him last season he’s a very good player.

I’m glad the 2 black blokes in the squad have no issue with someone saying the P word, moving to a club in the heart of a largely populated muslim community.

I agree he’s shown he’s a good player for Orient. Doesn’t stop me thinking he’s a fanny.

We have given him a chance and he has taken care of the opportunity. I am happy with this.

Not comfortable with this.

Would have preferred his "second chance" to be at another club.

Northern hard men CBs are ten a penny at this level.

Also, Happe will stay because there just isn't enough in him for another club to take him.
