Our board deserve to have the burden of debt eased and hope they are more than successful in their endeavour to keep Leyton Orient in the place they now are or one step higher.Maybe a form of fan share could be issued.
Thank you board for what you have done for the fans of Leyton Orient.

Well I hope and trust that this is the next step in our growth and development as a club to bigger and better things ahead. I wish its not going to bring unrest and instability at a time when we can least afford it.
The key thing for me is the word trust. I trust Nigel and Kent, I'm convinced my faith is not lost on my belief.
Nigel and Kent have been the best owners in my lifetime and I know that won't change now. I'm behind them 100%. They are serious businessmen who know business inside and out and they won't let us down now.

I heard a different story a little more sensible.

The American investor and former owner of Wycombe has not completed his take over of Reading due to raft of (not unexpected) assets which turn out to be debts. Nigel made a video with him recently so they must know each others' phone number.....

Wonder if it will mean relegation for Reading,back where they started from when they was almost rivals of Orient.Just wonder who owns the ground,which was probably the sticking point. |

Should our owners seek new investment, that makes such good sense. They have done an amazingly great job and if, in order to continue that development, they choose to find new investment then they should be both supported and trusted in that quest. I doubt, no I know, they will not sell us down the river to some mad Italian. Due diligence will take place.

I read an article that the reading owner borrowed money secured against the ground and a covenant was that they could not sell the club without the loam being repaid or that transfered to the Chinesse bank who lent the money. Now it gets complicated as they are merging with another bank which os state owned and once that's completed will be the biggest bank in China. So we could have a football ground owned by the Chinese government! Who knows what direction this Will now go in. |

I think that would be fantastic for the club if he was part of the investment group and he would likely continue the upward trajectory focus of the club, but more aggressively. On a side note, my American local club, Greenville Triumph, just this week got a celebrity Brazilian part owner who has a different financial history from Mr. Couhig. I think Mr. Couhig would have been a safer and more fruitful bet. I really hope he becomes involved with the Orient. |

I've had feeling for some time now that the current owners have taken the club as far as they can or are prepared to.Theres plenty of very rich Americans out there that I'm sure would be interested in taking us forward to the next level.I for one trust Nigel and Kent to find the right people

Perhaps it's worth saying before anything gets done.... If Nigel Travis has to leave the club to make way for a new capo-di-tutti-capi then he will have achieved something unequalled in our history. He will leave but assume the true status of legend "numero uno", Good hunting Nigel.
Sadly, I predict that lack of a stadium will kybosh Rob Couhig for being overly interested.

One good thing I guess is that at least we can be pretty sure that NT will be more diligent in finding a new owner than Hearn was when he cashed in his chips.

If fans really want new investment then we should change our name to London Orient . Foreign investment would roll in .
