[Barling Magna]

I suspect that Macca would have crunched Wilkinson early in the first half....

 

[Chris Powell's mate]

I can't see this one happening for us. Are they running in concrete?

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Silly foul. Lots of complaints about the distance of the wall. No stopping the free-kick. Can't say it wasn't coming or even deserved.

 

[kentblues]

Utterly shocking refereeing- amateur hour.

 

[Boreham Blue]

Wilkinson been too good for us. Need something different now as can’t see us scoring a couple like this. Best chance was nicking one on the break.

 

[Leicester Shrimper]

Good on Elvis for questioning the distance - he was clearly right to be worried.

 

[MisterStubbs]

This lot aren’t anything special, we are more than capable. Just need to get at them more.

 

[superblue24]

Dont think we've managed to recover from going a goal down all season, can't see tonight being any different based on performance.

 

[Paddington Blue]

Would like to see what Walsh can do - Egbri not making any progress and we need to make some changes

Miles better than us

Who the hell is Olayiki?

They took it further back than the foul to have the distance to get it up and over and the wall was further back allowing the same and stopping out keeper from seeing properly. Refs had a shocker there

 

[OrangeyBrown]

Can't get over the arrogance of this referee. Whole team is telling him it's miles off and he can't take two seconds to recount his steps? Embarrassing.

 

[davewebbsbrain]

These Orient commentators are so biased it's UNREAL. At least Paul Clarke give a fair commentary

 

[Barling Magna]

Great run by ANG earns a corner.

 

[Stuart W]

Commentator makes Stuart Smith sound good.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Come on you Shrimpers

 

[Chris Powell's mate]

Note that free kick to us.
I counted the ref's steps: 11.

I agree. If he’s that certain he’s right then striding them out again will prove his point and **** everyone up!! Job done arguments over!

This idiot has no idea what 10 yards is
From the corner they were 7 at best.
