___net v L_yt_n Or__nt

What's left of the Orient squad will be welcomed to the opening of our new away stand to play a one man team.

We have conceded 7 in two games, while Orient have conceded 5 so I'm expecting a 0-0 .

From the clubs article it sounds like the internals of the new stand aren't complete and so the new bar wont be available which is a shame, but it also suggests the away bar in the west stand will be available to all supporters.

We don't do 0-0s. Seriously, Orient have like the longest run of games without a 0-0 in the Football League or something.

if the new "bar" isn't available, then surely the hilarious thread title becomes ___net v L_yt_n Or__nt ?

We have to go back 30 games for a 0-0 which is why I think it's inevitable.

Bugger, missed a trick there.

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Seeing as we potentially have 0 cms available and our defence isn't good enough bar Parkes, there will 100% be goals. Just ordered me a ticket.

3-1 Barnet.

Batt hat trick. All three from Muggleton's long throw.

Cornick for Orient.

 

[E10rifle]

I will actually be in London for once.

Still not going to the game.

5-1 Barnet.

Our last league 0-0 was at home to Barnsley back in March 2015 on a Tuesday night. We did draw 0-0 with Scunthorpe in the FA Cup 2nd Round last season, losing the replay 3-0.

Felt sorry for Andy Edwards yesterday, all his hard work for our youth setup these last 4 years and in his first game as first team caretake, our captain lets the whole side down after only 20 seconds.

We don't keep clean sheets, I'm expecting us to lose 5-1 we'll have a rookie centre back playing and probably 0 central midfielders.

Campbell-Ryce and Batt are nailed on to score, the pair of cripple backs!!

Don't care if you have a child of 4 playing centre back, if Batt scores, it's off to the Ryman with you.

Poor Gillingham

Seeing Shaun Batt score a hat-trick against us is the lowest point of my football watching life.

I would definitely be checking for unusual bets on that game.

His brother did score for us.

From our forum, Bar definitely not ready

Looking forward to this one, my first trip to the Hive, I appreciate Barnet needed a new ground but I already miss Underhill, top ground that was.

Anyway, on to the match, Barnet look good on paper this season, plenty of old faces to come back and haunt to Os, and Gambin who we failed to sign will no doubt have a blinder.

Can't see a 0-0 like some are saying, our defence is leaky, and Akinde, Akpa-Akpro, and Gambin should combine nicely. That said, we have no central midfielders due to injury / loans / suspensions, so expect an attacking line up from the Os, who put in one hell of a shift with 9 men on Saturday.

My head says a 2-2 draw but I'm hoping to Os can nick this one 1-2, with Simpson x2 to finally open his account for the season.

Good luck to all the Bees for the rest of the season after tomorrow.

Robbie Weir will be out after his appeal was turned down. The real question is why the hell did we appeal and why do most of our fan base think it wasn't a red?!

to be honest I didn't think it was a red when I saw it at speed, it looked just like a clumsy rugby tackle, it was only when I saw your stills that I changed my mind.

Exactly this. I was at the game and was stunned the referee gave a red card. Even seeing the stills, it's a bit reckless, but he's gone for the ball, I genuinely don't think it's that bad.

My initial reaction when it was live, was that it was a yellow and that the ref set a dangerous tone sending a player off very early on. 10-15 years ago, it probably would've been a yellow.

But you have to take into consideration the refs position and that he only has one chance to make a call. Weir was stupid to do it and gave the ref an early chance to make a 50/50 call.

In todays modern game, red all day long sadly - But can see why it has split opinion.

I might put some money on Shaun Batt to score the winner today.

PLEASE LET IT HAPPEN

Not much risk if you only put 50p on it!

 

[rudebwoyben]

A wasted 50p from you Urban..
This has been awful stuff so far.

 

[BeesKnees]

0-0 , told you

 

[rudebwoyben]

Our attacking play was so sluggish in the first half, it was so easy to defend against. We stepped it up in the 2nd half but our movement off the ball let us down.
Not a match that will live long in the memory..

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

That, was fucking dreadful.

 

[Urban]

Two teams of some decent individuals playing shit football with no quality showing at all. Dire.

Exactly my thoughts. Game overall was a dull affair, both teams settled for it in the end as well.

Our first 0-0 in the league since March 2015. I was pleased with the clean sheet and that Yvan Erichot played very well to keep Akinde quiet, the team has seemed more committed in the last two games than the previous two before it.

We got very leggy in the second half, probably due to playing 9 v 11 for 75mins on Tuesday and we ended up playing a striker as a right midfielder and a right midfielder as a central midfielder for most of the game. So on this occasion I will take a draw and move on.

Only took 986, a really poor effort and around 600 less than when we went to the Hive in March. Shows the complete apathy at Leyton Orient at the moment, even one or two of my mates would usually go as its local, didn't go and in truth really didn't want to.

Orient fans how is Parkes getting on for you guys?
