Given Cheltenham’s recent improved form and our recent decline this might well be a very difficult match. Some are saying it’s a “ must win” game. Not sure I agree but in the current circumstances there’s little doubt a defeat could be psychologically damaging.

Not sure I agree but in the current circumstances there’s little doubt a defeat could be psychologically damaging. If I was putting money on it I would put it on Cheltenham . Nothing has changed for us in any of the games played for a couple of months ,despite RW shuffling the same players around a bit . Our defenders always seem to have a mistake in them and can’t score ,our MF doesn’t seem to cope very well with the pressure and don’t score and our forward don’t score . Confidence is low and getting lower . |

Confidence is low and getting lower . Fortunately Cheltenham are low scorers too. And likely low on confidence. They have had some decent results of late but their FA Cup drubbing last week won’t have helped. But confidence for us is definitely on the decline. Losing Saturday will be massive. But it’s not a good ground for us. Don’t much care about our performance, don’t much care if we have 60% possession. All I care about is us winning. We ain’t that far away from the bottom 4 and slipping. Need to stop the rot. And Saturday we don’t have the excuse of playing the better teams. Saturday we are the better team. |

It’s so sad that when you watch EFL highlight show you see loads of goals being scored from all positions and even Cheltenham seem to have found a replacement for Alfie May and have managed to get a very decent manager in Daryl Clarke . A team definitely on the up .

I'm thinking it's a bit like the clash song / line "should I stay or should I go?" It's not too far away and the lads need our support however, it can be streamed so I can sit in front of my tv with the log burner on a couple of beers and watch it.
Decisions, decisions, decisions!!!

Beer and the log fire.I may stream if possible but I cannot take watching Orient on the screen,I find it more nerve racking than being at the match.Possibly because you get the wider picture and can see the coming errors.I sit in the East Stand and often cannot make out what is going on when play is alongside the West Stand.Not my eyes as have excellent vision,I do wear spectacles but that is just to keep my good looks and hides the eye bags.

Even if they're improving they're still bottom of the table, have scored 7 fewer goals than us, and have a -17 goal difference. But then we're Orient.
