I just sat through this interview on Youtube:-
In conversation with (not) Orient WFC
I don't know who runs orientear (wasn't it Matt Roper?) but this is not good work. If you ask questions "what do you feel about..." to people who regard themselves as victims, you know what you'll get. These ladies are victims but not of Leyton Orient. The people who ran Kikk Utd (now London Seaward FC) wanted to be part of the Leyton Orient brand but retain control of the ladies team and it's future, that was never going to happen over the long term. They even offered "to run the ladies organisation" which is no offer at all. I am sad for these ladies but they need to look a lot closer to home as to why they are now independent and un-supported. I also understand why they didn't want to get involved in LOWFC trials, they are a tier 4 team and LO are down in tier nine (another story for another time).
The deal came to an end, the movers and shakers at London Seaward wanted to keep their team. They have.
