Independent Leyton Orient Forum

He is on the Jim White show this morning discussing his 29 days and why he left.

Could be interesting, is this the first time he will have spoken about it?

That's Carl of course, poxy predictive text!

Thanks. Any idea when? Want to hear this but not the rest of their tripe.

They just said some time this morning, think his show finishes at 1pm. That's my problem, I just hear bits of it when I'm in the van as occasionally I have to get out and do some work!

Bob Mills on too

Guy who did the interview reckons it’s on at 11.45. Just a couple of minutes, but a longer written piece to follow.

He was shafted but I want to hear more.

Who did the shafting?

Can't see him saying much apart from towing the party line. Maybe throw in something about Justin Edinburgh.
Of course he is going to think he is better equipped than Ross to manage us but he ain't gonna say that.

Mooney did an interview recently in Ireland and still won't talk about his last season here, citing legal reasons.

Those NDA’s are powerful tools, trust me on that.

Apparently some of the more senior players and coaching staff as there positions were possibly on the chopping board. Mind you one or two of them have not played much recently but they had to try something different.

I say the NDA's are pretty watertight so we may never fully know.

It’s been said Danny was one of them, I wonder if Ross the boss was one as well?

It's coming on now. 11.45.

ON NEXT

Up next after the adverts and apparently he “opens up”

Interesting

On now!

He didn’t see it coming

He should throw in a few 'so to speak' to banter us.

Seems like no one spoke to him and get him to change the behaviours that the board alluded to.

He actually came across really well there.

Nothing new learned there.

"I was looking forward to the window, getting my own players in"

Talked about not having his best forwards, working with and improving players, a good strong core with a positive future and what he was putting in place would have lasted and worked for a long period of time.

One of those things must have been fitness, something we are still struggling with today. Strange others can’t see we are not fit enough.

Fair point on Angol and Wilkinson out.

Embletons results haven't been any better and he's not had to play Harold up top on his own.

Yep, reckon this was what done for him. Cheaper to sack him off rather than bring in the replacements that the squad needs.
