Closest game of year for me, so naturally I'm in Manchester at the cricket. Hoping for a win, wouldn't be too downhearted about the draw.

This is the sort of game we need to be winning if we are a serious contender this season.

Pre match a bit too early for hipster beards and man bags in The Walnut Tree. Probably won't be proroguing the session in search of avocado on toasted jalapeno cornbread.
Must be a few years since 3 consecutive away games with a 1,000 plus following.
So, James Brophy. I liked him. A ropey end product comes with the baggage as far as most wide players are concerned. Would much prefer to see someone taking defenders on than opting for the safe square pass all of the time. Bombed out by Flitcroft. Maybe guilt by association for the evil that men do. Or LV in this case. Hopefully not a case of him running free like some wrathchild. Has been playing at left back but a regular in the successful dribbler of the week charts. But we have three that like a good dribble.
Orient have dominated possession in all of their league games so far. Perhaps not a surprise with their coach having experience of the Swindon Way. So should be an interesting test today. Do we match up with their 4-3-3 or continue on from last Saturday.
Curtains drawn for the residents of Bloomfield Court today maybe.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

As a collective entity (fans & team) we have to approach each game with the attitude that we are going to win. Success breeds success. From the season after the play off thrashing by PNE we have been on a downward spiral and with the dirge served up since it is easy to see why we are in the second division. However in football nothing stays the same for to long and for us our resurgence has started, cometh the hour cometh the man, Wellens is that man. We will win today 0-2

Anyone considering getting home end tickets today? Is that possible, even?

You mostly need to be winning about 25 or so in a promotion season backed up with a good number of draws... some look better bets than others. So for example Exeter and Numb away looked like difficult games to win, therefore a point acceptable.... Orient with Embers in charge looks like the sort of game that should be winnable. Nobody wins them all.

In the home end for me today, first time in an age I've had to do that. I reckon a draw today, 1-1 with a goal from Doyle again.

Definitely. I'd take a point if we were aiming for top 7. But this season has to be a top 3 finish for me. Mean no disrespect to Orient - a team that, oddly, I have a lot of time for - but we have to be winning away games like this one to stand a chance of auto promotion.

2-0 win would suit me just fine. Gotta keep the momentum going.
