Agree lord it's what makes life interesting! My miserable old bag of a wife thinks one thing and I another too!

[QUOTE=chevyfire;1190026]Last night was brilliant. So pleased for Sean McConville after the stick he has had in the past. He has been better this season, his set piece delivery is now worth his place in the team alone.[QUOTE

I come to praise McConville, not to bury him'

Without doubt our most improved player of late.
Some of his touches last night were Messi'esque and the two goals simply superb.
The chants of 'Shoot' every time he got the ball, even in our own half, were worth the admission price alone.
Laugh? I nearly wet myself!

What a great game it was,and Orient played their part for twenty minutes.
Hunty going off was a blow to them,but it was only time before our tempo paid off.
On a tricky surface,some of our passing and movement was top drawer and Pearson seems to set the tempo.
Pressing,heading,overlapping,tackles,passing and scoring goals,he really is turning into a beast of a player.
He's a perfect foil for Sean, and both read each other's decision making.
Play offs ??, possibly as we look solid as well

Has anyone heard any news about the Orient bucket collection on Tuesday night?
There doesn't appear to be any confirmation on their forum.
Would be nice to know what, if anything, they managed to raise?

Lord Didsbury · 16-03-2017, 11:00

Lord Stiff - there are more questions than answers.

I've been wondering what Bumble's birthday buns were like and whether anyone was braver than I and stepped forward and grabbed one?

That equates to only 19 pence from every Stanley fan present.

Didn't see anyone collecting outside the Clayton end & had to pass my donation to our Stanley/Orient fan in the Crown after the game.
Hope he didn't spend it on beer!!!!!

Lord Didsbury · 16-03-2017, 11:56

I didn't see any buckets either.

Here's the more modern, newfangled way though - https://www.gofundme.com/saveorient

st06nc2 · 16-03-2017, 11:58

209.77 raised altogether

maccawozzagod · 16-03-2017, 16:09

Rob; that was the issue when they turned up without a plan at 4-30pm the day before to ask if they could collect.

ASFC sorted the buckets and made the suggestions as where to position themselves

As others have said they need to get go in big numbers to the London's PL stadiums with sufficient notice, right H&S and good publicity. Then they might raise a decent amount
