Okay.. yes.. but you have to admit the tactics put in place yesterday were never going to win a game? From the outset were defending and relying on a lucky opportunity, that even if we do get, weāre missing them anyways.
Weāre a few players short, but youāve left the most creative player on the bench and play out from a 3 at the back, youāre already making your bed at that point.
Ha ha - I think between posters on here every Orient fan has been consultedDoes everyone know someone they supports Orient or something?
Like most over the years I have learnt the thing most football fans know the least about is football.From my Orient mate, now lives in Spain but comes over a fair bit to see the Oās
You really want to stay clear of George.....big wage earner with a poor attitude..he came on as a sub a couple of times last season,and got subbed himself....lacks dedication and commitment.... hopefully you will take him....
Is that what they mean by due dā¦. Oh sorry, that phrase is banned now!Ha ha - I think between posters on here every Orient fan has been consulted
That was Stan's ethos - I doubt it will stand it's first test in reality.Good point, this whole regime is about bringing a continuous style and ethos so that if kev goes it continues, so we will be playing this way for a long time
I can't fathom how anyone owning up to having an orient supporting mate hasn't instantly been banished by the mods.My Orient supporting mate would beat up your Orient supporting mate..
Not sure about bringing a flock, but in his time at Orient he was one of a group of 'Christians in Sport' at the Club and they did on occasion have group prayers on the pitch pre match, certainly! A bit different to ball juggling but what ever works for you I suppose.From my orient supporting mate;
āHe brings an entourage from his flock to pray on the pitch before some gamesā
Known my Orient-supporting mate since Year 7 at WHSB. His old man took us both to our game at their place in 2000/01. I had to sit in the home stand and suppress the cheers when Ben Abbey scored x2.Does everyone know someone they supports Orient or something?
And from my O's-supporting mate:
"He is a deeply religious person and has quite a hardcore IG account with daily bible verses. He is also a classic Essex jack the lad at the same time which makes him an interesting character. He is a luxury player. If you've got bite and running around him, his ball control and vision is amazing.
He looked better than Lge 2 when we won the league, but he just never made the step last year and you could tell Richie Wellens had given up on him. Didn't go on the pre season to Marbella so we all know he's on the way out - I'd heard Col Ewe so if you snatch him that's hilarious!! He could not be a more different player than Maher was.
He has the best close ball control of anyone I can remember in an Orient shirt - feels like it would be a good fit too. Have you been making any other big money signings?
A good solution for all three parties in my view. We're not giving you a dud, but he needs
Think if heās only on loan and doesnāt work out for us or him. Our liabilities will be limited financially.George Moncur scored 9 goals and a similar amount of assists in Leyton Orient's L2 title-winning squad in 2022/23, a season after he left Hull with their manager suggesting a lack of drive and desire - and his attitude and application was no worse in the L2 title-winning season than it is now.
He doesn't have a bad attitude as in he's a bad egg, and general drive and desire seems good when he's playing, as evidenced by his performances in L2 for Orient. Desire to put in extra work to better himself or to regain a lost place in the team sounds like it might be lacking.......maybe Kev and Co. would get that back out of him?
Technically though, he is a cut above this division and possibly above much of L2 as well, and I think he could really level-up the quality of our build-up play and final third play.
I'd also trust Kev and John Still to make sound judgements. They want a particular type of character, and they heavily reasearch around their targets, and if there was anything truly worrying.......we'd have dropped any interest a long time ago.
The words can go up on the new scoreboard..I can already hear a chorus of kumbaya floating around roots hall...
Wings it seemsā¦Does this Moncur rumour have legs? Seeing a lot but nothing concrete
You've married into a family of Spammers, so you're a fine one to talk.Iām more worried youāre all mates with orient fans!
Yeah Iād rather chat to an Orient fan than a WH fan, down the pub yesterday for their game and Christ, the overreactions to them losing. Try the National League lads.You've married into a family of Spammers, so you're a fine one to talk.
