Happy days!

I'm not familiar with the strength of Orient's team tonight (presumably neither did he before he announced the team) but it looks like he has potentially taken bit of a liberty with the team he has selected to start.

Sargent - Young reserve keeper. Bit of a flapper.
Judd - Young, suicidally aggressive reserve fullback. Dreadful going forward.
Ogie - Young centre back shoehorned into left back.
Ekpiteta & Happe - First choice centre backs. Both young and inexperienced. Both good on the ball. Happe is very slow.
Dennis - Tricky winger who can’t shoot. Good player with no end product.
Marsh - Some child from Spurs. Tiny but allegedly likes kicking people.
Gorman - Barely Conference-standard. Likes kicking the ball very hard off the pitch.
JMD - Talented, lazy wide player. Loves: taking the wrong option. Hates: tackling.
Harrold - Still a good option for 5 minutes off the bench. 10 at a push.
Alabi - Comically bad to the point where he has attained cult hero status. Probably be a pitch invasion if he scores.

Eight minutes in and you've only scored one. That's embarrassing Jonny. But don't worry, there's still time for an Alabi hattrick.

What a joke. Bond has to go after tonight surely

I’d love to think so but the fact he wasn’t sacked after the weekends performance makes me think Ron won’t sack him after a cup game that I’m the grand scheme of things, doesn’t really mean much.

Let's smash these one bob mugs.

Just coming in to land...

i am so indifferent to us winning or losing its worrying. Lose to hurry Bond out or win and enjoy that strange feeling. Cannot stand to want us to lose but strangely it seems the right result for the future.

That sounds like a terrible team, but we might be even worse.
