Sounds like the new regime at Orient is settling in nicely:

On a related note, this made me laugh. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-31428076

It's not really what's wrong with football as such, but how it is reported. And this is Orient related as well.

All the media outlets report all goals scored from the 90th minute onwards as just that - 90. So it doesn't matter if a goal has been scored in the 91st, 92nd or 93rd minute etc, it gets reported as 90. So you can get instances of two really late goals being scored, which could have happened last week in the QPR v Southampton game. Southampton scored in the 91st minute and QPR thought they had equalised in the 93rd (or something like that). It was disallowed but had it not been, both goals would have gone down as '90'.

I was just reading about Orient's 3-2 win at Chesterfield and their winning goal is listed at '90'. When you read the report though, they actually scored in the 101st minute  Eek

I'm not going to let it ruin my weekend (Town already did that yesterday Roll Eyes) but it seems a bit silly though.

I remember a Liverpool Arsenal game few years back when 2 penalties were scored in something like 92nd and 101st minute. Both went down as '90.' I agree, is annoying.

The Vidiprinter I use (Sporting life, but others too) seem to indicate the injury time minutes as 45+x and 90+x (90+11 in this case)..

The BBC are butt nuggets though.

Looking at the below it would appear that the Bournemouth chairman is trying to cosy up to the premier chairmen.

'17:37 Football
Championship clubs could benefit by about £1m per year from the new Premier League TV rights deal, according to Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn.

He said money would "trickle down" to the Championship in a "very positive outcome" for clubs in the second tier.

"It could mean a substantial amount in real terms. We may be talking in excess of £1m," he told BBC Radio Solent.'

Yeah that 1m makes it all fair.... dick!

Man United on the tv again.  Seriously BBC, if they go out in the next round are you going to find an excuse to show them playing a friendly against salford?

Kiss ass bbc wankers.

Isn't it something like the last 20+ FA Cup ties of theirs have been shown on the box.

Ridiculous, although tonight is worthy of TV in all fairness

And I see if they win they get through to face Arsenal, sure fire on the box.  It could be that they are covered in every possible round.  I wouldnt be arsed but seriously, Yeovil?  Cambridge?  The glamour ties that everyone desperately wants to see.

Am not watching
Is that first few rows behind the goals ?
Preston usually have black sheeting over those anyway for some odd reason
