Lets wait until the end of the season before we start any gloating. Anyway regardless of what happens between now and May I see nothing to laugh about with Orient. They are a small club with limited resources punching above their weight and deserve enormous credit for it. If we go up I hope they join us. Quite apart from the admiration for their achievements, pragmatically it would mean that there would be at least one club likely to finish below us in the Championship.........

Spot on

 

[To Bee Someone]

Batt is out for a few months apparently

 

[nocoat]

He was very good in this seasons night game.

Orient have suffered a spate of injuries in recent games and the O's boss confirmed striker Shaun Batt will miss the majority of the season with a torn hamstring.

Slade said: "Shaun could be out for three or four months. He's torn his hamstring quite badly and we don't know at this moment in time whether it will need surgery or not.

"He couldn't have done much more to it in all fairness so you're probably writing Shaun off for the majority of the season if not all of it."

 

[nocoat]

Bloody hell. Could turn their season upside down unless the replace batt man.

 

[wanderer paul]

Slade is desperate to get a few loanees in. Depending on what they can afford, they've done well so far, not dropped like a stone just yet.

 

[hanworthbee]

slade plays the loan market pretty well

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Match tomorrow postponed because of structural damage at the Leyton Orient ground caused by high winds.

They must be relieved as they've got a lot of injuries at the moment - still transfer window opens tomorrow ........ :suspect:

buying cheep homebase stuff , those gazeebos are rubbish. ive got a good one they can borrow if they want

 

[jlove]

Their floodlights have been blown down and are unsafe; I guess 2,500 Orient fans holding lighters isn't enough.

 

[Kettering Bee]

Didn't they install brand new, state of the art floodlights when they redeveloped the ground?

 

[Nada Bee]

Good news. We stay in top 2 whatever.

 

[GP200]

................hopefully they will have a good cup run and endure a fixture pile up.................

 

[hanworthbee]

shame as the players will enjoy the rest

This is lets say interesting reading

Nothing added since December 27th? Most odd.................

Well just wait till Akpom comes here and Moore tells them to do one

 

[A Real Mysteron]

That is one hell of a convenient postponement.

 

[ladbroke]

Exactly what I thought..
Thought league requirements is that the league is suitable to host football all season. Surely they should have done safety checks before each season and found that there could potentially be a problem. Suspicious when it coincides now when they are short on options for players and just as market re opens in time for them to replace them. Have they got players suspended who after one more fixture would let them play? They'll now miss the fa cup...

 

[A Real Mysteron]

Come on Greg.

Let's have an FA enquiry.

I think Slade is getting brown trousers.

 

[joebee]

Injury's and suspensions buys them time to get there loans in, Bazza pulling a stroke I reckon.

 

[ladbroke]

This match being postponed seems convenient timing.

I mean, injuries and suspensions kicking in, playing Bristol City I believe who are on form and without 1st choice keeper and the transfer/loan market just opening.

Any one on suspensions will miss their fa cup instead and be back for league action where they will want more priority.

All seems fishy. Could they have not attempted to fix them sort them to make them safe instead of cancelling with a day to go. Have they made sufficient effort to get it on? Teams in non leagues don't get promoted because grounds not up to scratch but Brisbane road gets away with being poorly looked after...

 

[nanny58]

Match tomorrow postponed because of structural damage at the Leyton Orient ground caused by high win , yeah high win ?????

 

[Mick.C]

Get the points on the board, let them worry about us.

Games in hand especially for Orient who are the weakest in terms of squad depth out of the 5 teams going for automatic are worth nothing except pressure.

 

[Bigbee]

Their floodlights have been blown down and are unsafe; I guess 2,500 Orient fans holding lighters isn't enough.

Not blown down , a bulb has fallen out .This is complete b***ocks , they cant get a new bulb and the rest of the lights checked in 48 hours ???!!!

[whyteleafebee76]

Why can't they go and play the game in the Olympic Stadium instead, chortle chortle.....

Conspiracy theorists are funny

Distinct smell of bullshit coming from the offices at Brisbane road.

I agree.

 

[Wouldbee]

Like Tranmere last year. Feck em. Boring. yawn yawn . Move on.......

 

[davebee]

Yesterdays postponement was bad for Orient IMHO and not what they would have wanted. They need points to stay in touch with us and Wolves. By the time they play the game in March/ April, they could be so far out of the chase, the game is largely irrelevant. Yes they were missing a few players, but I still think they would have preferred to play.

 

[SQUELCH]

i'll bee cheering on a draw in their cup game on Sat - can't beat a fixture pile up and more games!

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Can u imagine what our away fixture is going to be like? Fecking mental.

Nice scramble for tickets ? Cannot wait !!!!

they are due a ground takeover.
they've tried to lord it at GP recently, although they had sh!t numbers this season.

We always take big numbers there.

This could be very messy.

 

[SmiffyBee]

The truth is out.
No conspiracy.
Goalie coach Kevin Dearden was not satisfied with his christmas grub and started on the pylons after Boxing day.

Burp.

:moo:

Living down here in the Southwest and looking at the forecast for the next couple of days I'm very hopeful that their cup game at Yeovil could be called off!!

Let's hope it is called off and they get a replay

 

[steve.bees89]

What makes me laugh is any games they call off now are bound to be rebooked for fairly late in the season. Batt won't be back and they could have even more injuries/suspensions to deal with. All it's done is put more pressure on them later in the season. Not that it will matter because I can see them falling away just like Tranmere did around this time last season

 

[JCMcBee]

its gonna be lionel trying to get tickets for the far east........and even more lioneler down their gaff.......my 8yr old wants to go..........erm.......no son,not that game.........:beer::beer::beer:

 

[SQUELCH]

Ho many does the away end @ Orient hold?

 

[hobbsy]

Ho many does the away end @ Orient hold?

Just over a 1,000 I think It's gonna have to be a takeover.

EDIT: 1,459, if we get the whole of the East Stand then that is another 2,133

 

[ladbroke]

Reckon it'll be on the telly again...

 

[hobbsy]

It's not an international weekend, so would Sky drop a Championship match ?

[whyteleafebee76]

but we haven't played them in a promotion race type match at this time of season at their place. Its got to be 2000+ travelling to this surely.
