Agyei showed us what we've missed. Nice 3 points.

I said I'd be happy with 5 pts in December, now we've got 6 with one more to play.

The ref was so good and so wrong in equal measure. He loved a rough tackle! He loved a booking for a swear word! He loved giving a 50/50 deflection to the team who deserved it least
Consistency is what we ask for and he delivered! Bravo Daniel Middleton

The ref looked like Charles Atlas.Listened to some Charlton supporters on the way home,it seemed they thought they would turn up and get 3 points.Some good efforts from the lads and as we got the only goal we deserved the win.

Just got back my take was first half was terrible.In the second half we showed a bit composure going forward and i thought Theo and Pratley were excellent.I like what i see from Forde he gives us something differentgoing forward When Agyei came on he attacked immediately and got to the byline and there you go one little bit of magic.Our defence did well to keep Alfie May quiet and a big shout out to Omar who was immense all game and got the all important winner.We are not the finished article by some way but it's a great win against our London rivals Up the O's

My thoughts, feel free to disagree with me.
The ref was rubbish, he never penalised them for holding at all.
Forde was too lightweight and got pushed off the ball a few times when positioned well.
We were poor, but Charlton were a whole lot worse than us, they really are a poor long ball team who offer exactly nothing
Ruel I will credit him for a whole lot of running and applying pressure even if it resulted in nothing for us. His hold up play was wanting and his awareness was questionable, but boy did he work his arse off.
Prately was immense even with a few poor passes, the geezer put it all in today. Its not a surprise to me, he is a proper professional.
Idris and Galbraith I though the midfield three did well and need to start the next game, give them time to gel as they worked well today in spurts.
Lets praise Hunt who i thought was exceptional today especially as the last time we played them he got ripped a new one. We won and I love it! Let's have it now. Propr happy tonight. I love this club, team and manager who got it right today when he got it so wrong last time out.
Up the O's

I've been following Peterborough 3-1 Reading on the BBC website, only to find out on BBC Final Score on the telly that it ended 2-2.
Imagine finding that out later on if you were only following on the website.
I can't trust it anymore.
Bolton 3 Leyton Orient 4 btw.

Up the O's The Ref was both good and bad but leaned more to the good..We got away with what I thought was a blatant penalty when Omar held down one of their players.Yes,Shaq was weak in the first half when a slight shoulder shove would take him off balance,but like I’ve said he grew into the game.Ruel was Ruel,no better no worse.Yeah he ran and ran but so does Drinan.Omar was deservedly MOM.Hunt was much better today.We kept Blacket-Taylor and May quiet so that was half the battle done.I thought Gailbrath would have been to light weight today but he stood up well.All in all a good second performance when some of our players realised they can play football |

Maybe that's why Richie likes Soti and Driz. They move about and pull defenders away, leaving gaps.

Also a mention for Galbraith i thought he did well today he's a good little player always trying to make things happen and looks to go forward with the ball and attack

I'm pleased we won because the haters wanted to be out in full force tonight and already had their scripts written about how good Alfie May is, why we haven't beaten a team in the top 12 and why can't we compete with the likes of Charlton, etc.

It was a tense and hard battle, won by the O's. We looked both tense (Omar's horror pass in the first minute and Darren's three blunders) and exciting (Forde's runs and Galbraith's running and shooting) consecutively. A tense derby well run by a liberal ref. Beckles played the best game I've seen him play for a very long time. The back four dealt with their threats well. My man of the match would have been Brynne, but I'm happy with Beckles.
We threatened up front quite often in the second half, especially after our goal (confidence). Midfield was a scrap all game. People are praising Agyei, who dribbled well. But I thought Brown was also excellent when he came on.
A really good win which puts us in the top half. Richie said it's a league of two halves. I'm inclined to think that we're on the top of the bottom half. I wonder if the glass is half empty for other posters.
Well done lads!!

From watching the stream I was frustrated with the constant booting it up in the air and getting nowhere in the first half. Second half the ball was played more to feet or on the ground into where runners should be and it was much better to watch. And got the crowd going as well.
