Independent Leyton Orient Forum

Questions for our panel of Steve Tongue, Lee Boyce and Trevor Singfield.
Plus A History Of The Os pt1 with Dulcet Dave & Steve Jenkins

If Leyton Orient was a cheese what would it be?

Given the respective ages and apparent health conditions of most of the panel, this is being carried out via Zoom right?

Would the panel agree that members of the OTF, being ‘hard geezers’, are less likely to contract Covid-19 than the average Orient supporter?

, actually Steve isn't in the studio, he will be joining us by phone live on air, we are ltd to only 3 people in the studio at any one time atm, for obvious reasons. So far as I know Trev and Boycie are in decent health, but thanks for asking. Billy Herring has had a throat op so for the next few weeks needs to be careful and once again will join us by phone. Our panelists ages range from 30s to 70. Once we are allowed to have larger panels in the studio we will be actively looking for a cpl of twenty somethings to widen the age group of the panelists, thanks. If you are interested in taking part then please PM me on here thankyou.

Would have been better to have the poll on here. Those of us who hate Twatter (as well as Faceplant and Suckerberg with a vengeance) can't vote.

Very true, not much good at anything I'm afraid. Amended. Still hate them though.....

Just been advised Danny Macklin will be ringing in with a club update during the show

Could see the financial benefits of North and South but not sure i fully understand the practicallitys of it all. My overall view is that more finance could be passed down from the Premier but alongside that should be the financial turnover at clubs in div1 and div2 that would decide players salaries. Too many clubs throw money they dont have at players and eventually clubs find themselves in financial problems or worse.

tongue in cheek

Q Are the panel concerned that none of the 4 out of contract players have resigned? Do the panel think Marvin & Ruel will move on?

What are the panels thoughts on clubs going into administration higher up the pyramid and how this might affect Orient

(Wigan Athletic have today confirmed that they have entered administration.)


Nick

Have the panel any insight into the clubs academy going forwards? As a salary cap seems to be on the horizon and more financial prudence going forwards, what impact will that have on such academies and their viability in the future.

Does the panel think that now we have Alex lawless as a coach that Jobi will move on perhaps to sky

who are the panel ?
never heard of these people
