5,708 Today

Post by Cheshunto »

Over 5,500 home fans there today for what was a shocking advert for League 2 Football.
The second highest gate in League 2 today.
Another example of how Danny Macklin and the marketing team are doing a good job at getting bums on seats but we just can’t get things right on the pitch.
The atmosphere was non existent today in what was possibly the most boring home game of the season which is such a shame as many won’t come back after that.

It weren't that bad today. I've seen worse from a lot higher paid players in the Premier League.

The average gates this season have been the best for many years. That won’t continue next season if we continue to under perform at home. The basis of being a good side will depend on home form. This season our home form is well below that expected. This is mainly due to negative tactics employed by the manager

Relax. I'm sure this will be addressed in the 5 Year Plan.

There is only ever a decent atmosphere in the TJS
everywhere else is a bunch of mildly embarrassed
mumblers.

Oh yes I have. West Ham v Everton a few weeks ago. Absolutely shocking.

After the last few games I fully expected us to kick on from the head of steam we were building. Unfortunately we’ve taken two steps back with that performance. It was like we were scared or worried about the opposition at times rather than trying to press our style and game onto them. Very poor,

You can always rely on Orient to do the opposite of what you expect.
