Ok, so have just been watching this again. Wallace has decided not to buy us but Tony Wood says that he 'demorolised everybody' and Angel Motors changed their attitude.
It was only when I was a kid and a time I didn't follow Orient. Does anyone know what occured?

I do remember Wallace saying in the press that if the deal went ahead he wouldn’t be putting any money in the club to boost funds ,which were already very low . I don’t believe anyone else put in any offers for the club so Bazza got it and saved it .

It was only when I was a kid and a time I didn't follow Orient. Does anyone know what occured? The chairman had sadly lost all his money and coffee and tea business due to the civil war in Rwanda and was desperate to find someone who would take care of Orient and said they could have the club for £5. |

Cheers for the info but that was in the video. Something else went on after Wallace didn't buy us that Tony Wood said he should contact him through his solicitor and the coach company refused travel to games. |

I recall a real lack of cash, when that's what the club needed most. So in its hour of need the guy was not as real as it seemed and the staff were thinking the worst. That's how I recall it.
