..or is anyone else feeling so much better after Saturday's result?
On Friday I was dreading the thought of the games to come, almost to the point of thinking "..right let's just get the disappointment of not being champions over with and gear up for the play offs.."
Now I can't wait for the the remaining games.
Maybe it was just the fact we were playing Sutton away and all that entails,and now that is out of the way I can see the route to the title laid out in front of us.
Three games,that despite the fact that we are dragging our tired carcass towards the line, I seriously believe we will win.

The condition is known as short-terminism.

I feel the same way, SopranO.
There seems to be something about this squad of players that engenders confidence. I, too, think that we'll win the title. Like all teams, we've had some ups and downs this season yet, here we are, top of the heap, two points ahead.
I'm confident that we'll beat Harrogate and Braintree. Solihull will be tough but, a draw will do.
Fingers crossed.

Sutton was great! Must confess I didn't realise how late the penalty was at the time.

Yeah feel this also, really didn't think we'd get anything at Sutton, but like the previous promotion team, there is something extra under the surface that can pull out a win even when we don't necessarily deserve it. We have a good bit of fight, good team spirit and like back then, a few players who can pull something a little tasty out of the bag when we need something.

We will when Turley returns.

A big miss at the moment, think he could have made a huge difference to the Bromley game...it's great to have someone physically menacing for once in an Orient line up

Agreed entirely with the sentiments above.

From Salford walking the early kick off, to finding out neither Jobi or Turley or JWMD we’re back, to seeing Dayton red carded when they should have been down to 10, there were so many lows, all outweighed with that one massive high at the end.

More importantly, there’s no doubt the players believe it too.

Didn’t realise the penalty was in the 89th minute either.

I’m still sh-ting myself that we may blow it
