    First away game of the season for me. Meeting up with family and friends who live down in the big smoke. Looking forward to the match.
    I think it will be difficult to keep the amazing run going, so will settle for a draw, but certainly hope for better.
    Been to Orient a few times, a cracking away day, some nice pubs nearby.

    Yes agreed . The big pub on the left between the lul station and the ground was heaving with us last time we went. Tues night match from memory.
    City fan had a balcony flat to our left corner. Happy days..let’s hope for more!

    2015 when Hanson scored an absolute belter? Was there also if so. Gutted to missing out not going to this one.

    Yes I was there with the lad! Travelled in from Epping on LUL. Great night Olly. From memory wasn’t Vince playing for them that night?

    Good memory. Also Nathan Clarke and Josh Wright.
    Our keeper and back 4 wasn’t half bad either….Not sure about the change up front for Hanson at HT though.

    We should be beating Orient if we are serious. Shite!

    Need to shake your head if you would settle for a draw against them.

    It’s an age thing!

    Only recall the memorable players nowadays, however Aaron McLean still sits in the memory, albeit for the wrong reasons:p

    Set you up a template mate for the rest of the season to put into the relevant match thread. HTH.
    Give your head a shake. We should be beating [next team we are due to play] if we are serious about promotion. We need to improve OFF the pitch and ON the pitch if we are to show any ambition. And we train at a bloody SCHOOL for god's sake. [insert relevant expletive(s)]

    We also train on a running track because Adams believes it builds up stamina

    And an expensive school I'm told if you have the brass to send your offspring too, I heard £7000 per term.
    We have a few on here who's children attend Woodhouse Grove.
