    Dixon sends a ball up towards Godden but the defender gets to it first.
  • How wasnt that a trip on Dixon?
  • "Nathan, a few changes tonight. And one very significant starter."

    "Yes, I know a lot of Charlton fans have been desperate to see him. It's taken a few weeks, but I'm really pleased to give Dan Potts a start."

    Defense a bit dodgy!

    OK, odds on who Pratley kicks up in the air first?
    Nathan hopefully 🤣

    Orient down our right, come inside and have a shot just inside our box straight at AMB
  • Orient break into our box through Kelman, but its a weak shot and easy gather for AMB

    Should have been 0-1 with a decent strike, glad it wasnt as all came from the referee ignoring what looked a clear foul on Dixon just outside their box

    Leaburn and one of their players in a tangle on the edge of their box. Ref gives them a free kick.

    Leaburn with a strange foul on a o's defender, he kinda jumped on him for some reason.

    The camera has just zoomed in on about 12 fans arriving as if to say ‘oh thank god someone is here’ 

    looks like it could be a record low home turnout tonight 
    Couldn’t be arsed, at Hammersmith to see Paul Heaton.
    7th home game missed in 52 years.
    First by choice.
  • FFS thats not a foul for Orient, thats bloody obstruction?

    Ball gets played back to their 'keeper, Leaburn goes to pressure, and a defender runs across his path - they go down with Leaburn's arm wrapped round the defender, and they get the free kick

    Nice bit of passing from Orient into our box but we manage to smuggle it away.

    Good block from Potts in the area preventing a clear shot on goal...
  • That Orient kit is just as horrible as it was earlier in the season. Their players blend into the background a bit, which would explain our defence's inability to tackle players running through.

    Sloppy passing from Docherty gives the ball away just inside our half

    I dunno, replay looked like Leaburn chucks his arms around him and then they go down together ( ooerr) 
     I suppose, looking to tussle around the defender and down they go.

    Is this the worst atmosphere for a “competitive” match at the Valley ever?

    All came about because the defender stepped across Leaburn with no intention to be involved in going for the ball though - Obstruction just seems a dying foul from referees these days

    Small down the left, cross into the box, Godden plays it to Berry on the edge of the box, who appeared to get in a tangle as he shot.

    As some may get excited to see the cup games tonight, I will not put up scores and spoil it 😁
  • Hanging on first 8 minutes, still 0-0...

    Shot orient, poor ball out from Doc sees them nick it from Dixon and get a tame effort off.

    Shame we're not seeing the over the Hylton past it Pratley match up. Here's hoping.

    Dixon loses the ball, and Orient pass through our lines easily, but shoot straight at AMB
