Independent Leyton Orient Forum

BBC sports news, Bonne scores opening goal after 32 minutes for Charlton in their game against Leeds Utd.
Well done young man ! Meanwhile, Josh Koroma does not even get a place today on the subs bench for Huddersfield.

Goal! Charlton Athletic 1, Leeds United 0. Macauley Bonne (Charlton Athletic) with an attempt from very close range to the bottom right corner following a corner.

Congratulations to Bonne, we could do with a player of his calibre .

Yes well done indeed and how many on this forum said that he would never get on from the start for Charlton in a Championship game.
Worth his place in most teams if for nothing other than his fantastic work rate up front, such energy and non stop chasing defenders down for a full 90 minutes !!

Couldn’t give a toss.

Can we please have an end to these pointless ex player threads.

Ok, fine, but also throw in non related Leyton Orient topics like anything to do with Brexit, the Labour party, Donald Trump etc etc !!

For myself, I enjoy following the careers of ex Os players especially when they were good lads like Macauley Bonne.

Leeds had 19 shots to Charltons 3 of 3 (on target) apparently.Leeds had 72% possession.Leeds had 4 on target.Amazing.

I just looked up the full time result and yes Charlton held onto this lead to win one nil !
As to Bonne's goal, well according to the BBC report of the game, a scrappy goal, but no matter, he was there to put the ball in the net and as Jimmy Greaves once said they all count no matter what way you score them and ''If the ball hits my backside and goes over the line, then I will claim the goal'' quite right too !!

BBC report on the game ''Leeds missed the chance to go top of the Championship as Macauley Bonne's scrappy goal condemned them to a first away defeat of the season at Charlton. Match-winner Bonne was making his first Championship start because of injuries to fellow strikers Lyle Taylor and Tomer Hemed, and was the beneficiary of some questionable goalkeeping from Casilla, who could only push Lockyer's initial shot into the danger zone.''

Zzzzzz

We do but he's injured at the moment .

Chuffed for Macca. Great news.

Glad for him, but he's gone now, and to be honest hearing about ex-O's doing well kind of grates when the current team isn't pulling up any trees. I'd be happy for Sid to keep it to himself (no offence, Sid)

Scoring a goal = doing well?

If you're a striker then, I think so

That's not to say he couldn't do better. He's there to score goals, and he scored one, so he's doing OK. Is OK more agreeable with you? I can live with OK.

Will probably be taken off him - looked like an own goal to me.

Well according to people on here it wasn't his goal...so does that mean he actually isn't doing ok?

Only 3 appearances so its ok

Not Bonnes goal sadly, come off the defenders arse.

How can Bonne claim the goal?

If you look at the replay you can clearly see that he didn't touch the ball
