Walsall 1 (Macken) - 2 Orient, ( Cureton, Mooney)
A wake up call for the Saddlers as a second half smash 'n grab by Orient inflicts a defeat for the first game, Smith to give em a kick up the rear afterwards and a much better performance seen at the next game.

Don't know what the score will be, but I think after about 15 minutes, I will realise what a god send the close season really is.

Re: Leyton Orient (H) League 1 Saturday 6/8/11.
I have to agree with DerbySaddler's sentiments for this one, for a couple of reasons. Firstly, our pre-season games haven't exactly been a walk in the park judging by the reports, there seems to be an unhealthy degree of inconsistency about our play. Perhaps the "gelling" of a squad of strangers hasn't really happened yet. Secondly, Leyton Orient are certainly no pushovers - in the heady days towards the end of last season, when Walsall were playing with newly-discovered commitment and no little skill you may remember we actually beat Southampton at home - now I'm the first to admit we were desperately lucky that night, and a 5-1 defeat wouldn't have disgraced us. Yet only a few weeks later we were given a complete footballing lesson by Leyton Orient and lost 0-2, and it could have been many more.
Sorry to go on at length - I'll go for a 1-1 draw, Grigg scoring for us in the first 10 minutes. Their goal from a penalty, just to show us what one is.......
Attendance 5,162

The usual pre season optimism to be peed upon with a 1-1 draw. Macken for us. 4487 in attendance.
Will be watching from the Asbo to go stand this week for a change.

Re: Leyton Orient (H) League 1 Saturday 6/8/11.
They've become something of a bogey team for us over the last few years. I can't remember the last time we beat them.
That said, the first day of the season can (and usually does) throw up all sorts, and I'm going for a 1-0 home win. Grigg with the goal on 64 minutes.

Re: Leyton Orient (H) League 1 Saturday 6/8/11.
I cant wait, im still optimistic even if we have signed some second rate players really and im worried about our defence....
Scrape a 2-1 win late on. Just looked at Orients squad, they seem a bit weaker this year, last year they did have Spurs loanees though.
Cureton will score past us :evil:

Chambers and Smith will be up for this one and it will hopefully spread through the team and lead us to a 2-1 win. Grigg and Macken, and the inevitable Cureton goal for them.

My old man had a bet with his Albion fan mate that day £20 a goal. I said at the time something along the lines of "You idiot" He got my beer in all night with the £60, fair play!

1-0 to the saddlers
Penalty (macken converts after Gnakpa's brought down at the end of a mazy run)
Three points and a clean sheet, 'job done'
