Re: If We Lose On Saturday
Do we need to wait until after Saturday's result?
The same tosh will be posted irrespective of the result

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
Just curious, if one is unable to express displeasure at Leyton Orients current bad form on a Leyton Orient message board without being called a “bleater” could you point me in the direction of a more suitable place.
I was under the impression that a Leyton Orient message board would be the ideal place for this without being insulted, but clearly not.
I don’t remember seeing anything in the rules of this page which stated “only positive comments about Leyton Orient, regardless of performances and league position are allowed”
This schtick of having a pop at anyone who says something even remotely critical really is tedious.

Agreed. It's a real shame we can't express opinions on football matters without being insulted.

Positivity breeds positivity and confidence.
Negativity can spread amongst fans before matches and definitely from fans AT a match on to the players.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
Love how these type of threads are created pre-emptively as an almost ‘told you so’.
Real surprising that their might be some negative comments if we lose to the team bottom of the league.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
Also - if this is the *positive* wing of our support, coming on here and preparing for defeat by pre-emptively having a dig at other fans - then we really are in trouble.Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 1:03 pm Love how these type of threads are created pre-emptively as an almost ‘told you so’.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
I reckon that losing on Saturday will be worse than drawing or winning.
Out of drawing or winning, I prefer winning.
Out of playing good or bad, I prefer good but would settle for bad as long as we draw or win.
Thank you for your time.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
I think there's a (thankfully small) strand amongst our support that would blame the fans for Embleton not doing well. A bit like how Corbynists used to blame the media for their failings. Yes, the critics are hostile, so you have to stop giving them so many things to criticize. And blaming the messenger doesn't change the inescapable truth of your hero's own inadequacies. It's a pretty key characteristic of leadership that you are accountable for the success or failure of whatever you're leading, not the people you're supposed to be leading.Howling Mad Murdock wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 1:18 pmNah but we may be in trouble if the team keeps playing crap.OyinbO wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 1:12 pmAlso - if this is the *positive* wing of our support, coming on here and preparing for defeat by pre-emptively having a dig at other fans - then we really are in trouble.Apple Wumble wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 1:03 pm Love how these type of threads are created pre-emptively as an almost ‘told you so’.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
Rationally, you are spot on. A draw ain’t too bad because it means they are still far away from us. But it shows where we are if that’s where our heads are at. And also points at us not picking up many points elsewhere if we can’t beat them.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
I'm really disappointed I wasn't first in that list Lucky

If we lose Saturday wherever we finish it'll show Embleton isn't the right person to take us forward. For what it's worth my hunch is a 1-2 win for Orient but it'll be a stressful watch.

Re: If We Lose On Saturday
I’ve been saying that Lucy7 and Spen are the same person for ages. Glad that others are finally starting to realise it.UpminsterO wrote: ↑Thu Jan 30, 2020 12:11 pm Is lucky 7 a mate of one or more of the staff
Is spen and lucky either the same person or a double act.
It's just there is a definite pattern of behaviour emerging and at times it's a negative impact on here as read in other posters replies - hence I have both as foes which suits me and has stop their snide comments to me.
As for being a mate of somebody at the club, I think it’s highly unlikely that lucky7/spen has any mates, employed by Leyton Orient or otherwise.
