    I know most hate this competition but personally I think it’s our only chance of a bit of joy this season and I will be gutted if we go out tonight

    I think we looked good in the first half. 

    Well, for about eight minutes of it.

    So 2 shots on target to their 13. Can somebody on the SMT stick their head over the parapit and explain why it was such a stunning idea to get shot of our 3 best players and replace them with the donkeys 🫏  we currently have. Weakening beyond words.

    We’ll smack me out of shock. A first half where we didn’t score…
    The stats aren’t good, are they boss.

    Guessing we'll see the O's coming out full steam ahead as in the 1st half so let's hope we're up to keeping them at bay again....but for how long.

    Allegedly Berry & Potts were on the pitch for the first 45 mins....anyone see them ? 

    Really concerned aboout Miles' lack of pace & getting his head to the ball first. Might be subbed at half time  & give Kanu a chance ?

    Oh well. I've had to make the decision to take one for the team.

    A "lucky" glass of wine it is.  :)

    Taylor for Docherty or Berry might help and Campbell for Dixon would improve our right side. Baffled by Leaburn.
    Taylor for both  Docherty and Berry would probably improve us

    I'm never bothered if we win or lose... but I think its great experience if anything for the likes of Fiji Josh and Dixon, before they're thrown into serious First Team games.

    I think there’s an element of people being pissed off so looking to the worst. 

    That half wasn’t awful. Much better than some in recent times

    Know its early days but really dont think Dixon is up for too much 1st team football,looks lightweight and to be honest,knackered!
    Was shocked when he gave the ball away and tried to track back but just clearly didn't have the puff to sprint after the player. That was about 25 minutes in!

    Genuine question, why are we so so good, at signing crap players, we seem to excel at it!

    I keep noticing 2 young backroom staff in the front row of the dugout at every home game. Anyone know what their roles are?
    Detention?
    Whatever they've done, that's a harsh punishment.

    At least we have Allan Campbell to bring on

    About 15 years of practice
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    We kick off the second half

    Because we have crap judges of players bringing them in

    Because we sign players who were good elsewhere and make them terrible. Doesn't matter who you sign if you crush their talent immediately

    100%.   For that reason alone, I hope we go through so they get some more exposure/experience.

    Orient down our right Dixon tracks back well but can't keep possession.
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    Orient down our right, manages to jink around the defence but we clear.
  • MarcusH26MarcusH26
    Oh Miles big chance!!! Should have gone across the keeper

    Agree it's early days.
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Ohhh should be 1-0, but Leaburn's effort is well saved after he's released from a nothing ball

    Looked a tame effort really, but we have a corner
  • eastterrace6168eastterrace6168
    Leaburn breaks down the right all on his own first time shot brings out a good save for a corner...
  • aliwibblealiwibble
    We get the ball up to Leaburn, he takes on the defender, but his shot is palmed away by the keeper for a corner.
  • golfaddickgolfaddick
    Leaburn trying to be too cute. Needs to go across the keeper. 
  • AlgarveaddickAlgarveaddick
    Looks like Miles can run. If he wants to.
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    First corner, a training ground routine came to nothing, but we've got a second corner now
