Unfortunately it doesn't matter any more.
Whatever the result is won't change anything.
I just want this season to end.

Lee Clark hoping the players show a bit of pride whether playing for contracts here or elsewhere now the pressure is off whatever that means, I would suggest the evidence from the first 42 games coupled with the 2 x *******ings from Lee (rightly so) will result in more of the same I’m saying a 4 0 to Orient
Quite who these players think is going to take them on and where we’re heading is anyone’s guess the football grapevine must be a small place and other clubs and managers will surely have heard of the players attitude of refusing to play and the feigning of injuries (allegedly of course)
Having said that I’ve heard myself Joe Powell has got himself fixed up,at Donny so at least that’s one gone, could be argued he was one of the better ones but often flattered to deceive and won’t be missed

[Edinburghmiller]

In case anyone is interested, we’ve scored!

[Burlesque Miller]

Harry Gray

[mygiddypant]

In case anyone is interested, we’ve scored!

Gray proving quite effective on the wing. Bit of a comical goal; quite appropriate considering. Still, Harry won't mind.

[Old_time_miller]

Too bloody late!!!!

[Beaufighter]

Although the goal was a very silly one the team are playing quite well so far, you can almost see the pressure is off. Will Clark get a win before he goes to Barnsley at the end of the sesson?

[Old_time_miller]

And where is speculation for that?
