Leyton orient reflections

[Townerslovechild]

Next season will be yet another reset,at some point someone has to be given time.
Yesterday's game reminded me of the only time I went to Orient,which was the play offs when Ronnie was manager.
This was the 2nd of 3 attempts to get us out of the 4th division, will Clark or whoever be given that amount of time to get us promoted ?

Why would anyone think that just on the way back is meaningful? I watched the whole thing on telly and got a better view.

What a strange comment to make.
It’s a fellow supporter who has done the hard miles in the past acknowledging another fellow supporter who has done the hard miles.
Supporters like pocket , Towner etc are no more loyal or knowledgeable than anyone who didn’t go but it’s reasonable to recognise the loyalty they are showing / have shown.
I have respect for anyone who logs in like yourself abroad it’s a commitment especially with how the last couple of seasons have played out.
Supporters who keep turning up home and away should be applauded imo and I don’t understand why you wouldn’t think that’s meaningful.
Strange indeed.

As long as they're paying to watch the game. Got no time for these that hardly go claiming to be fans watching games via dodgy sticks.

I wonder how many, had Hamshaw still been in charge, would have commented on how poor Orient were.

If MH would have been in charge 3 of the better players yesterday wouldn't have been in the match day squad at all. Yes LC can take the risk with the young players but at least he is. I think as time moves on we will really start to see how bad a manager MH really was, just my opinion others will have a different view. Coaching and management are not the same thing and for all MH alleged skills as a coach in my eyes he clearly lacked the ability as a manager. Yes LO were poor, but you can only beat what is in front of you and the players both experienced and young deserve some credit to play like that after everything that has happened.

You are absolutely correct BOTN. It was said tongue in cheek and if I?d added a smiley face it might have come across that way. I get dafter as I get older and maybe deserve the Barmpot award on Mr Potatoe?s thread.

It was fun when our ‘ave it clearance when straight over someone’s washing on ther balcony and into their flat, never to reemerge

Also odd to see someone on the balcony below that wearing an Arsenal shirt to watch an Orient game…

I went with my mate who’s also a Miller but lives in East London and his wife’s a West Ham fan. So they’ve been going there, but he took his six year old son to his first Millers match on Saturday and the lad said he enjoyed it more than watching West Ham, which is nice. Though the Hammers do play at a glorified Don Valley I suppose
