    Robins

    Robins has done a great job - in the circumstances He came in when we were in free fall, a divided club with huge off field problems and was the 4th manager that season What he's done since is remarkable and has given us fans some great days So he's definitely a very good manager of players and...

    Liam Kelly - First name on the teamsheet

    Leyton Orient at the time were owned by a crazy, vindictive Italian who deliberately sabotaged the club to get back at the fans, who had been giving him stick because of his insane stewardship The guy had paid Barry Hearn £4M and used the club as the basis for a reality show on Italian TV

    I think there might be a bit more to this The Times ran a sympathetic article at the weekend where all parties apart from the club and fans were condemned including SISU and the council As this news has also broken in The Times today it's more likely to have come from a source within, or close...

    Ricoh Pitch

    Pretty fair assessment Mind you looking at it dispassionately it would be a great adventure if we went on a run now and got up through the play offs again But let's be honest our young team would find it hard to cope in the Championship next year As others have said maybe a near miss this season...

    Stadium Deadline

    Expect the EFL to be sympathetic Everyone knows that the innocent party in all this is CCFC who are caught between a group of horrible Hedge Funds and an obstructive council Providing we have a written agreement for the option of a ground share with a host club they won't boot us out and the...

    Summer Transfers

    It does a bit, we'd all be the same looking at a new job So much so that a club with a scruffy training ground will have their first meeting at the ground to make an impression if they have a decent stadium A club sharing a ground but with believable and tangible plans for either their own...
