Leyton Orient (h) - League 1 - 02/10/2012

[Ancient Moaner]

Early doors yet though. Plenty of goals in us at the moment.

Interesting stats from the BBC, have we actually turned up?....Not a shot on target after 30 mins? can that be right?

[wivenj]

Come on 4-2

[latviancheese]

Scored from the halfway line again? This is supposed to be professional football.

:?

We'll need plenty of goals - 0-2 down now (31 minutes) :evil: :evil:

I'll take that 2-2 draw I predicted right now.

Me too!

[Wyrley_saddler]

Awful first half, so one paced and too predictable. Orient by far the better team and look more like adding to their lead rather than us getting one back. We just can't cope with Lisbie up top. Orient seem to have done their homework rather well tonight

[chestersaddler]

Only consolation is that there aren't many here to see it :(

[Aldridge_saddler]

Think we need to switch to 4-5-1 they always seem to have an extra player in the middle we are being pushed wide and it's not working.

[BathSaddler]

The usual 3,000 I would think.

[philthesaddler]

Told you this would happen.

Orient are a big physical side, they've done their homework, put 5 across the middle and stopped us playing.

They're pressing hard and keeping a rigid shape, meaning the likes of baxendale, cuvelier and Paterson are being made to look very ordinary.

[Ancient Moaner]

Aye football orrible, things were gewin sooo well, the bubble had to burst eventually, and according to Wyrley Saddlers report, things aint about to get better in the 2nd half, still life in the play off's was good while it lasted!

[chestersaddler]

No worries. The second half will be like the Ryder Cup all over again

[BathSaddler]

No changes in personnel at the start of the second half according to the BBC text commentary.

[Aldridge_saddler]

2-1 international willy Grigg !!

[BathSaddler]

Attendance 3,281.

Edit - included 167 O's.

[bangsection]

And so it begins.

It's what I expected to be honest. If we can get something from this match then the crowd will significantly improve for Saturday.

[BathSaddler]

Brandy on for Baxendale 74.

[philthesaddler]

We've now got Gary Coleman on the right wing by the looks of it

:lol: :lol:

[BathSaddler]

FT, 1-2. The statistics suggest we did not really deserve to get anything from tonight.

[latviancheese]

Sounds like gash goalkeeping and generally a gash first half cost us.

No worries, we will do Carlisle.

[IHTC.]

Awful 1st half cost us the game. Much better in the 2nd half, cracking penalty, terrible niave Ref and unbelieveable goal mouth scramble.

[Fray Bentos is God!]

Did anyone think it was a penalty on Grigg at the end? Grigg controlled the ball and their chap went through the back of him, at back level.

[IHTC.]

No I thought Grigg went down to easy, Brandy on the other hand if that wasnta penalty it was atleast a freekick on the edge of the box.

[latviancheese]

Hold on, how does a fudge professional goalkeeper concede from 60 yards. Im sorry, thats a joke.

[IHTC.]

Darlow kept us in the game up until then with 2 terrific saves.
