MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (h)

[John Madejski's Wallet]

I really need to get on the VPN game.

At £60 per year for Sky Sports, all EFL, PPV events and almost every other channel, you probably should…

Feel free to DM the deets of your preferred option for all this.....

Will do, it has porn as well…

[Sutekh]

This game has become absolute ****, hanging on for a point and having a few injury worries. Smith has barely contributed.

[Uke]

Save!

[Millsy]

Really really wanting Selles to succeed, and was delighted with how we were playing, but such a shame their manager can make changes to completely change the game but we can't react at all.

It does feel as though the game state is almost irrelevant to what he does with subs.

Need a goal? Change fullbacks.

Need to defend? Change fullbacks.

Need some possession? Change fullbacks.

[Royal Ginger]

Every substitute is one for one.

I'm only listening today but there's no apparent tactical tweaking. Nothing changes, just the faces.

[Uke]

Most subs today were forced rather than tactical

Which is fine when the tactis work really well and your backup is on a par. Less so when it's largely inferior or what you're doing isn't working.

[Bristol Paul]

Weird game, thought we were very good first half, but second half too many failed Hollywood balls and a number of very poor performances from the likes of Wing, Smith, Azeez. Mbengue scares the shit out of me with his constant ability to make mistakes, and Button is just poor week in week out. Unfortunately there isn’t enough in this team for us to stay up in my view. 5 mins of injury time for them to make me eat my words.

[Winston Biscuit]

Port Vale now the team immediately above us in 5th from bottom. Lol.

[Millsy]

Yeah we're pumping big balls forward. Smith is having a poor game.

We have Wifi on the bench, with decent goals per minute ratio and a big target.

But at least we have a fresh fullback.

[Snowflake Royal]

We're nearly good.

But nearly isn't enough.

[Snowflake Royal]

The number of games where we look good in the first half only for the opposition to do something about it at HT and then we have a much poorer second half because we don't ever react seems huge.

[Millsy]

Agreed.

Well look, it's another point. We had some really bright periods and in truth should've won it (imo).

[Pepe the Horseman]

Hopefully it'll put an end to this disgusting bromance.

Didn't see the second half, but first half was good. However, the way people have been talking about Leyton Orient I assumed they were top 3. They're 10th

[Uke]

Did TMac stay on at the end this time?

Bloody weird side as well. Swung wildly from hapless to dominant.

Game was there for either side to win, and neither really had the quality to do it.

[Orion1871]

Terrible second half performance. Lucky to get a point, particularly when we were fannying around at the back and put them through. Negative football and when we did try and get it forward it was aimless punting.
