Hi everyone,
In tonight’s Orient Outlook Podcast, we’re delighted to have club Director, Marshall Taylor, on the show.
We're going to talk about the cost of football, the improvements around the ground and how they’ll benefit the club.
As always, we’re keen to put your questions to Marshall so drop them below by 8pm and we’ll do our best to get you answers.

Question for Marshall : Many fans at the moment, are quite rightly in my opinion, questioning the clubs summer acquisitions ( players)
Most fans believe the summer acquisitions were in the main, terrible. Real cheap buys, mostly not of the required standard for league 1, which is borne out by the fact we are struggling in the bottom six at present.
Is there a problem behind the scenes, meaning the club isnt as well financed now, as it has been a couple of years ago?
Ive heard Nigel say, the prices for players and the wages theyre asking are too high, but other so called lowly clubs have managed.
The loans we have are mainly awful, and we must be the only club with 2 loanee keepers
Whats going on Marshall?

Thanks alfresco.
I'm surprised this thread has only had one response.
Marshall is coming on to talk about the business of football. Our prices have gone up a lot and yet the squad isn't as competitive as we'd all like.
Not long left to get your questions in.

I would suggest that Marshall has perhaps made his views clear already on one or two of his previous social media posts but given you’re a bit short of questions maybe I will ask anyway :- 1. does he understand the concern/ frustration that many fans feel about the home performances especially so far this season ? 2. To what extent - if any- does he / The Board share those concerns/ frustrations? 3. Does Marshall accept that our home form is having a detrimental effect on home attendances and primarily it’s results that drive attendances? 👍

Why has the club not tried hard to recruit a young centre foward target man type of striker, We have needed one now for the last three seasons. We found Bonne in a Division two team when we were in the national league, surely must be some raw talents like him in some of the lower league teams, we live in hope !!
