"a lifetime supporting Orient does that to a fella" Realist = pessimist mostly. Yep, and the feeling walking away from the game, past the nice pizza restaurant, can be difficult regularly. But we live in hope. Yes , I get the impression one or two on here might be confusing “ optimism” with “ hope”!😆😆👍 |

Yes , I get the impression one or two on here might be confusing “ optimism” with “ hope”!😆😆👍 Hope. Always a risk and at times I plead guilty. Then have a reality check so it doesn’t last long. There are one or two posters on here, Denisrofe; MrB, that keep me grounded when my optimism gets the better of me. But that’s football. Does strange things. Reality rules, OK. |

You mean well and despite your health problems you have been a true fan in the way you travel such a long way to go to see the Os play.
A longer term view perhaps needed when looking at players performances after a few good displays ! Your emotion and love for the club shows in your comments after you watch the games and that is no bad thing !

Nowt to feel guilty about doh. I guess those that have been following the O’s for a prolonged time all have a tendency to fluctuate in the way we appreciate the team based upon the most recent set of results!😀 A win at the Imps on Saturday and it’ll be a case of trebles all round I shouldn’t wonder!👍 |

Thats me sorted. Just off to have a word with myself and discuss why I’m in two minds. Nothing drives me crazy like Orient. |

A draw would be a good result, a win would be a great result, to lose would rather disappointing to say the least and a bit worrying to be in and around the bottom four teams. |

Realist, I should say - someone once asked me if I was a "glass half full" or "glass half empty" sort of chap. My response was that it depends what's in the glass....make of that what you will! Or As you like it. |
