The Leyton Orientear

Stevenage are a club at a historic high, and yet their tiny stadium is half empty tonight

The Cunningham family today, gathered together to remember Laurie seventy years after he was born #LOFC

We’re already having a civil war

Orient yesterday: 11am - 9pm

Life comes at you fast

Arf. Not indispensable. But we are dispensing with him. Imagine the payoff will mean he won’t have to work again.

RICHIE WELLENS RED ARMY!

And morale has just gone through the fucking roof here 🍾🥂

Beautifully ironic that Ling’s final act as an Orient employee was having a row with Alan McCormack about the latter’s settlement.

Sacking Ling just as you’re starting to promote the 2006 reunion is classic #LOFC

Buzzing for tomorrow now. Up the Os!

Do you know this man? He appears to be on the run, shedding elements of his past life... authorities in Harlow are looking for him.

It’s like someone drew Richie Wellens’ face on a balloon and then let all the air out of it

and that's even before we get onto the allegations about David Sullivan 🤢

ICYMI - West Ham have just released their annual accounts (at the last possible moment) and they are *terrible* 🫣

Lost over £100m, dispute with London Stadium going to the Supreme Court, and a liquidity crisis incoming in the summer even if they don't get relegated. Oopsie!

If he's right, it's curtains for the Ear though

Deffo has a season ticket in Block A, South Stand

He's good - how did we not clock this before?

Launching "Forever Orient" in the same season that we sacked our Captain, a senior coach, and ditched about 20 other players - now that's chutzpah! #LOFC

It’s all about the details

tremendous - an all-timer of a tick

As it happens, Storch has come close to buying several English Football League (EFL) clubs. "We started focusing on US sports and then we started looking at English football about two-and-a-half years ago," he said. "We've given serious consideration to three different clubs. We did go down the path with Rob Couhig at Reading. We took a look at Blackpool, although we quickly dismissed that one. "Then we submitted an offer team with Gareth Bale to buy Cardiff City and actually reached agreement with Vincent Tan to purchase the club. Unfortunately, he decided to hold on and we never got that transaction complete."

This is what happens when US venture capital is the only buyers of football clubs: historic entities of the stature of Sheffield Wednesday become third choice investment opportunities, just a line item on a spreadsheet to be disposed off if it does not produce the required returns.

Audience capture

Coming this Saturday...

European countries fear playing in World Cup will mean financial loss European football federations are concerned that playing in this year’s World Cup will wnd up costing them money

Just as his defeat by two of his own SCOTUS appointees, it will be attempts to rip off the business elite that will do more damage to him than anything else

Winning football matches is good. We should probably try to do that a little more often #LOFC

Not yet, but it we could be getting near the end for Wellens if it goes badly tomorrow

Nope. That would be this

Orient fans on their way to Northampton tomorrow

Too much of a yes man, presumably

Our new coach Paul Gallagher was sacked after just 40 days in charge at Barrow during the wettest winter on record. He may well be the first Manager for whom it rained every single day he was in charge. He lost every game.
