Their badge always looks to me like two dragons about to make out…

According to X we’re around 800 strong (of a 1200 allocation) tomorrow. Some are optimistic of more.

I‘m already dreading the ‘you’re in my seat’ conversation.

That’s one of the joys of supporting Wycombe regularly away, not many people support us so those convos are few and far between!

Hopefully a few Matty Bloomfield chants tomorrow as he’s at the game.

Would be quite ironic given that it was at Orient a few years ago that large sections of the away crowd were hurling abuse and calling for him to be dismissed

Hopefully something happens tomorrow that will push the conversation on. In a good way.

Be fascinating to see what the new chap can influence in just a matter of days, and whether any drastic changes are made. I’m feeling hideously optimistic for no apparent reason.

My gut feeling is that tomorrow is going to be a disaster

I am more than happy to do be proved wrong.

Is that because you’ve eaten a very dodgy & hot curry??

I had a dream last night that Anders was brilliant for us (i don’t think it was against Orient) and that he was the reason we were getting promoted and no one could understand why we rated him so poorly at the start.

So that guarantees at least 2 howlers from him today. Apologies in advance

I’m currently on week 8 of a 12: week restrictive diet. Eating a curry would probably have me fall ito the floor screaming.

Back on topic. I hope I don’t fall to the floor screaming at 5pm today.

See you at Brisbane Road fellow Chair sufferers! Let’s hope our fears are unfounded and we come home with a rare away victory :folded_hands:t2:

Will we get Jack, DanC, Anders, Harvie, back four today. Its probably our best. I am interested in if the new guy brings in Mvs. That woukd be the progressive choice.

Never mind all that, what about that badge? It has always seems to be that the Orient badge has all the guff one would expect around the sides but nothing in the middle.

Wow. I was nodding along with this post (exactly my defence today) and then you talk about Mikki van Sas. What about the new signing keeper who has barely put a foot wrong so far despite the crap in front of him?!

Its not necessarily what I would do. But, if the aim is to revert to a more pass heavy style of play, MvS is probably still the most comfortable with the ball at feet as a sweeper.

Hazard played some big old punts recently, maybe it was tactics.

I think it will show how they are looking to play.

He’s conceded quite a few goals, shed loads would be a fair description.

I was going to say, he might not have put a foot wrong but he’s barely put a foot right. Like you say he’s conceded an utter shtload and not sure he’s countered with many great saves.

Say what you like about the last fella but he’d make a lot of good saves on top of the howlers.

Has a strange tendency of booting it WAY too hard too.

Early days though!
