Swindon Town vs. Leyton Orient Matchday Thread

[STFC_Gazza]

Oh very true, the Harrod's christmas lights! Oh and the chants of "you should have gone to the sales" Orient's fans were some of the quietest in the league surly?

And we got to see the sights of London too!

Twice!!

Got to agree about JPM. Absolutely fantastic yesterday, and showed he is fit enough to run around all game and play good balls, just that most games he doesnt want to/cant be arsed. If hes not in the mood then Wilson should be substituting him after 20 minutes, he'll soon get the message.

Real spirit in both the team and the fans yesterday and I think this is the minimum you need to get any enjoyment out of watching lower league football. Just felt like Swindon again. Lots of chanting and fans excited about their football.

Have to say that weve had a lack of leadership on the park and off it the last year and its been a bit painful to be honest. Its hurt our support and its lead to a lot of players being hald arsed and lacking the desire. But now we have a real Leader again I expect that to all change. Just got to persuade some of those who have started to flake away over the past year that things are on the up again.

And if that Orient fan couldnt see that Sam Parkin was Orients best player by a mile then they dont deserve him. Hes not quite as fast as he was, but hes got really quick feet, great in the air, good first touch and unselfish.

Fucking great day out. Thanks to Luci for Arranging and Steve ofcourse for driving. Our fans were in fine voice today and no doubt the appointment of a manager as well as the early goal helped. We looked very good at times. Cox seems to be lacking in confidence. A goal Sunday will fix that. Went through a similar spell last season if I remember correctly. Brez looked good and went back to basic goalkeeping, "catching the ball" JP McGovern looked fantatsic and clearly the bollocking from Byrne and the appointment of a new manager had the players fired up. Great to see Budgie get a standing ovation at the end and the chants of "THERES ONLY ONE DAVID BYRNE" at the end, he has put up with a lot of shit but stuck with it. What a great send off for him as caretaker.

Some people get left behind then Gaz?

Just out of interest did Wilson sign JPM for McMongs?

We've won our last 4 Boxing Days fixtures....5 in a row it is then *cough*

 Shame we can't play as well on a normal Saturday....congrats to Jerel Ifil, who played in each of those wins, three of which were away....and to Michael Pook who sat on the bench for 4 of them.

 I guess that DW must have had some sort of doings with JPM with at MKD...DV know owt about it? LeeP obviously worked with him at the Shitheads.

Agree with all that Spence.Talking of leadership,no one seems to have mentioned Timlin,who I thought looked a real captain out there

[Reg Smeeton]

 Good point..forgot about him..was it Wilson who shipped him out or Tinman.

[Spencer_White]

Yes Adje, Timlin has been good for a while. Hes really impressed with his attitude at left back. Really got stuck in and got on with the job in the position we most needed him.

Well done Timmeh! Definately one for Wilson to keep.

I'm glad I find myself agreeing with a lot of these comments. Hopefully it's a sign that the fans may be able to pull together after a year's worth of bickering.

 Year's worth of bickering my arse...it's only been 11 months.
