There's a circus in the town...

Bilel's return and being sent off after how many mins? Bilel playing up front.

Away at Swansea? where we went down to 9 men then we scored again?

Caruthers sending off at Barnet after congratulating the guy who scored an own goal.

Bramble being sent off a few mins after coming on as a sub. Bramble playing in goal.

Double le sending off at Bradford I think for some reason or another.

More sending off stuff that I can't remember....

It was actually eight men. I believe we're the only team in the English league to score a league goal having had three players sent off.

Our run of horrible own goals against Orient in the middle part of the last decade, culminating in the away match just after we'd qualified for that first trip to Cardiff in the LDV Trophy. Both strikers (Bramble & Broughton) scored own goals in a 2-1 defeat. One of them missed a penalty.

I remember travelling back to Uni after the game and going for a curry with a friend where we were seated in a packed restaurant at the table next to my University's only Leyton Orient fan.

Bizarre as this will seem, I remember it being publicised once that we would be moving to a new stadium! I can remember writing to councillors, protesting outside the Civic Centre and all manner of related ridiculous and pointless activity.

Anton Johnson- Nuff said

Didn't we have a Premier League player's alleged cousin on trial just to find out he was a hopeless chancer and no relation?

 

[Shrimpers are Magic]

Going on a record missed penalty run back in early 90's - I think even Sansome had a go!

Stadium start date of 2010

I think the original start date was about 2001 under Ron Martin.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

* Printing Eastwood's name in the programme as 'Fredy' because that's how it said it was spelt. He then changed his mind a few weeks later and it was changed to 'Freddy'.

* Freddy Eastwood - and all of the amazing stories that came with him. Fly tipping, exercising his horses on the A127, terrorising James Lawson. The list goes on.

The black eye from the pikey fight that most of them do to settle a dispute. He won the fight tho.

The mascot Leo the lion ? Wtf

I remember us getting some female model as the new tannoy announcer. I think they got her to read the scores out at half-time in her first game, she was terrible and never did it again. Think it was either our League One title season or Championship season.

Gotta love our club. :facepalm:

Gave her a lift home from Anglia TV's studios. Lovely girl, but not the sharpest tool in the shed. She actually thought she was good on the tannoy. She certainly filled her shirt better than me though.
