    Leyton Orient

    A new low for football fans. From what I can gather, reading reports on various media, the FANS who PAY the wages of all concerned, were blatantly lied to that the game was being abandoned in order to remove them from the stadium so they could finish the game without them. This, I believe to be...

    This is next seasons kit (probably)

    What worries me is one more striped shirt and that's 4 in a row. The perception then sets in that we are a team that play in stripes. On another note we have won 2 cups in stripes but have been also relegated twice in stripes. AFAIK we have never been promoted wearing stripes. Bring back plain...

    This is next seasons kit (probably)

    I think the pinstripes could work if we switch around the blue and white. On second thoughts it is a bit similar to this year's!

    Would you have sacrificed cup final for L1 survival ?

    No, for all the reasons already stated. I have actually got to the stage where I don't care as much as I did about what division we are in. Since Wembley in 87 we have spent most of the time in the bottom 8 of any division we're in and League One didn't feel much different from the Championship...

    General Election

    Greg Dyke just said on sky news that he talks to Tories and the one they fear the most is Yvette Cooper. I voted for her last time and will again. Labour is too full of macho Neanderthals to see the good woman they already have. Sadly the left is in for a blood bath. The likes of Corbyn...

    What Band Would You Be In ?

    I would be in Fleetwood Mac. Drugs, sex, rock and roll. They seemed to have good times!

    I googled him and was none the wiser I'm afraid.

    I thought last night's episode with Elsie the smurf was the weakest so far. Never heard of the actor as I don't watch GOT. Presumably fans were tickled by his different role but it was a lame effort, IMO.

    General Election

    The Tories are brilliant at jostling for position, selecting and replacing leaders and superb at calling and winning elections. They run rings around all their opponents. Sadly, people fail to notice they are useless at running the country and, on this occasion, will run the country towards a...

    Beavon

    I like him and I get that he works hard and makes chances for others. But I am not a big fan of strikers who rarely score, so it's a no from me. Successful teams need goalscorers. We have no midfielders or wingers that score more than the odd one either. Get 2 hungry goalscorers and tata...

    Favourite Moment

    It was almost a perfect day. I would go so far as saying that letting the goal in added to our excitement. That last few minutes of "agony" makes victory all the sweeter.

    I just wish you could spell TURNBULL. Great job reporting though.

    Gael MOM

    Bigi all the way. Fantastic game. Just watched the highlights and he just keeps popping up everywhere. Heading it out from set pieces, off the line, breaking up play, his goal. Honorary mentions to Turnbull, Stokes, Haynes, Stevenson and Reid. Burge was tremendous and the others all played their...

    Favourite Moment

    After a pint at half time I was in that nice afterglow when you love everyone wearing sky blue. I said, to anyone who would listen, we score another and they won't get back. 30 seconds of mesmerising play later the ball hit the net, the air around me exploded. I jumped so much I nearly propelled...
