Orient hopes now?

Not making excuses as both teams had to play in it, but conditions weren't ideal and I thought all of pur defence and midfield struggled.

With such swirling winds its hard to judge who should be attacking or challenging the ball.

Baudry, Clarke, James and Vincelot were exceptionally poor, which goes to show how much the conditions played their part.

For them I also thought their centre backs and central midfield pairing were poor.

Not a game for the purists at all. Rotherham had a few chances and took two. We took one. They win.

Can't blame Alnwick. This is how bad the wind was.. He kicked a ball from the edge of his 18 yard box, it went halfway up the pitch, looped back over him and out for a corner. That's how strong the wind was.

Probably why James couldn't find his range with passes and any footballers on the pitch were made to look average.

This post is not acceptable Kbola hee heeyou sound like one of the miseries on the board that shouldn't be mentioned

We have lost a game so what it happens from time to time



2 losses away from home so far this season that's not bad

Keep the faith otherwise I will pour some Bovril on your wellies next home game

win our game in Hand & we go Top

I'm F**ked off enough already with the absolute muppets on the main board, thought i would come over here for sensible debate

Wasn't having a Go, Kbola, & yes losing Jakupovic is a massive blow, But it only the 4th defeat of the season & people on the Main Board (Wum's paradise)are making out it's the end of the world !!

In my opinion with No lisbie & not a fully fit Mooney Slade had no choice but to play Simpson, as we all know he will go 4-4-2, if he would have tried to go 4-5-1 with extra midfielder such as ness or Bartley then he would have been slaughtered for it anyways

Exactly, we should all be behind the team, not slagging certain players off

I like your point assissi but what about Dagnall's double on his debut?

Give the new boys time to gel

Alnwick has just arrived Loza could be a possibl threat if he gets some game time
I still believe there is something Bartley and Simpson(yes Simpson) have to offer

Ness has impressed me so far

I think we may of seen the last of Shaq attack

Dagnall needs to find the right wave length with at least 1 of our Strikers

Mooney and Lisbie are not looking sharp just yet hopefully that will come again when the pitches get less boggier


Lasimant I think could do a job if selected

It was a shame jakupovic had to return to Hull but hey that's life


I personally think we are still in with a shout and that's just what I'll be doing next Saturday

Shouting the mighty O's on to another 3 points


Let's make the Team feel like there the best thing since sliced bread plenty of home games coming up to show your true support


COYOS

Consistency is one key feature of our success this season.

But we do need to bleed others in. Simpson is being made a scapegoat, the whole team today were poor.

Loza, Dagnall and Coulthirst have all made good impacts, so did Ness.

RS has proved beyond reasonable doubt that he'll understand what went wrong and take steps to improve it.
It is disappointing that Nathan allowed his man to cut in front of him for a free header for the first goal, just as irritating was the time Revell had to set himself to score the winner. You can't win them all and Rotherham seemed to play as if their lives depended on it. I'm disappointed but not downcast, we lost to good team who worked very hard in their own back yard.
