    You notice @Bigrod@Bigrod 's picture that number 69 is facing a different way?

    Bloody 69'rs, always doing it differently.

    I'll agree with the principle here, Bolton played Salford before us and played a flatback 4 with a very rigid midfield infront of them. Salford couldn't break them down and by the end Bolton had given them a football lesson.
    Saturday for us was another example where either the players aren't listening to McCall or hes playing players out of position which leaves them unsure of who is supposed to do what. It looked like the latter in the first half, something i've seen countless times this season.
    Changing two or three players at half time on a regular basis shows there are fundamental problems in your tactical approach. No surprise when Scales came on in midfield there wasn't the time and space available to Salford as they'd had in the first half.

    I'm going to pretend i don't know that it's a 7 o clock kick off. Then when I turn it on at half time and see that we're 3 nil down I can turn it straight back off.

    Same result as if I'd have watched it but I'll feel better having wasted zero amount of time on it.

    Me too.I’m working in North Wales so would normally dash back.Will probably set off a bit later today and pray I get caught in all the M60/M62 traffic.Bit of reverse psychology.Guaranteed to play well if I’m not watching/listening.

    I assume Leyton Orient will have one or two fans there tonight, courtesy of the flats overlooking the pitch. I think a few have rented one or two just for the matches; of course, lockdown would make that less viable as, if they follow the lockdown rules, they would have to limit a flat to a single household.

    I'm going for 1 1 in the end.

    Reason being, I predicted we'd go on a WDLDWLWLDL type run and we pretty much have.

    No Evans. What a pointless signing.

    Do Orient have any powerful midfielders? I hope not!

    Weirdly confident of getting something this evening. Don't know why. Its just feels like that sort of game.

    Apparently the Orient side is an attacking one. Hopefully we can get something.
