£10k for the win.

Plus I estimate approx £12,000 gate money, also executive posh lots, snack bars, drinks in the bars and programs. So maybe in region of £20 grand net on night.

Lovely left foot on him. Nowhere to be seen when you want a winger tracked, marked or tackled.

MO, Jonny. I saw it like that. Very good going forward, but I'd like to see him tested by a pacey winger, which we didn't have last night.

Overall, I didn't think Orient were too bad. Certainly lack something upfront and I would have expected Robbie Weir to have more influence on the game than he did.

Interested to see that Gillingham signed Frank Nouble yesterday on short term deal. As a big unit and only 25 years old, with bags of potential, I was hoping we would snap him up rather than Fortune, however the big Frenchman may well prove my opinion wrong if he can carry on the way he's started

Not sure I'd be interested in a player who couldn't impress in the Chinese second tier...

If Simpson and Cornick aren't on the pitch we have the sum total of f***-all up front. It's almost as if releasing Dean Cox was staggeringly stupid. Weir is absolute gash.

Isn't Weir the captain? .. I thought he'd be controlling and influencing things.

I think the O's fans there last night weren't impressed with Simpson being held back until the 83rd minute.

I'm not impressed with the fans that went. Lickspittles.

Weir is the captain, but he's been absolutely terrible. Burton must have carried him to two promotions, because he doesn't appear to have a single useful attribute as a footballer.
