Fantastic Entertainment

Post by spen666 »

This message board is fantastic entertainment.


The comedy gold comes from watching the meltdowns by various posters

The never returning to Brisbane Road-ers
The worst result in clubs history-ers
The club is more toxic than under Bechetti-ers
The lack of investment-ers ( ignoring the fact club spends far more than it receives in income)
The insult to Justin's memory-ers

Thanks everyone for the meltdowns. You have brought a smile to my face.

As the sun rises tomorrow and Leyton Orient continues to exist, I will recall your meltdowns and laugh at your overreaction today

Well we've surpassed ourselves,that's the worst defeat for a very long time.
Did I win? and I wonder how may more features have been disabled on this message board.

Ah I see.I can't quote myself.

Fair enough but are you not just a little bit concerned about how poorly we're playing under Fletcher . ?

It's the worst result in my time supporting Orient for sure. Closest to that I remember was losing to Hendon in the late 90's but they were top notch opposition compared to the level of M&T.

I am not concerned at all.

Whether Orient win the European Champions Cup or get relegated to Hackney Marshes Sunday Afternoon League 6th Division does not pay my bill's, improve the health of myself or my loved ones.

Watching Orient is a relaxation & not something I will stress or get concerned about

Let’s see whether we go in for any of their players like we did with Hendon.

All this coming from a non-Orient supporter.

Priceless.

No. Just go on for their whole team. Plenty of spirit and fight. We’ve lost ours.

I am an Orient season ticket holder and have been for last 20 years.

I have not been a Newcastle season ticket holder for 20 years

However, that is irrelevant. What matters is getting things in perspective. Whether Orient or anyone else win or lose doesn't change my life and I am not going to go into a meltdown when any team win or lose.

There are far more important things in life than a game of football

If you mean I have a more balanced view of life and realise a game of football is just that. It's a game.

Yes Its disappointing that Orient are a victim of a giant killing, but so what?

Orient still exists

Yes, not the end of the world, it's only a game correct but you would have to admit whilst it's an embarrassing result, it's the manner of the defeat that makes it worse and it's the accumulation of the previous poor results especially at Morecombe.

I wasn't worried under Ross about relegation. Now, I have to admit, after the last 5 games, I'm not as confident.

Like I said , I understand the point you're making. I suppose it's the owners who should really be the worried ones .
