The two biggest clubs in this league meet this weekend :bdick:

If we all close our eyes and join arms, we can remember when we was both in League One playing each other year after year :(

The Wrexham Police won't allow comments like that.

Our last visit to Orient was our final away game in League One, when ex-Rover Chris Dagnall effectively relegated us. I am looking forward to going back to Brisbane Road, my favourite away ground. A very tricky game, but one we need to win to prevent Wrexham opening up a four or five point lead at the top.

Our last trip to Brisbane Road was on 26th April 2014 - we lost 2-0.

Less than 4 years later, we've had 4 relegations and NINETEEN managers between us. Football really can change oh so quickly.

This will be a tough match, as you've definitely improved under Edinburgh. We're better than when we played you earlier in the season, but we're still far from convincing away from home. I'd give us the slight edge, but wouldn't be shocked if we drew to be honest. Glad to see that, from the outside, Orient appear to be turning a corner and give it a couple of seasons and I would bet you'll either have been promoted or right up there fighting to do so.

But let us escape first please? Thanks.

Edinburgh has certainly turned us around, although he initially made us alot harder to beat we've been leaking goals more recently which has been annoying due to players making stupid individual errors more than anything else.

We've scored 8 I think from Set pieces and corners since JE took charge (Not including penalties), which is more than what I'm used to!

We was 3-0 up last week at Dover in the trophy, in complete control of the game at 3-1 until the 80th minute when our backline decided to just switch off and go to sleep and it was 3-3. Thankfully we edged it 4-3, we usually create chances but we're still ropey as fuck at the back. Our two full backs Joe Widdowson, but in particular Jake Caprice struggle to defend, Sam Ling was signed from Dagenham this week and I will be amazed if he doesn't start Saturday.

Big George Elokobi has also made a positive impact on the team since his return from injury, I would expect him to mark Andy Cook, George rarely if ever loses aerial battles, but he is suspect with the ball at his feet.

I would happily take a draw as of our remaining home games, we only have Wrexham left from the front runners to play at home, the rest are more winnable.

Can't see us winning though unless our backline switches back on.

We haven't won in 13(?) league games, and always lose to Bromley. If ever there were a home banker, here it is.

They’ve had a decade down in this hellhole - they can get tae fuck.

I’ve seen three wins in my last 40 Orient games. I’m going. Tranmere will win 3-0.

I’ve last seen Rovers win away about 9 years ago, despite doing 4-5 games a season. Not going to east London for this one, so there might be a glimmer of hope for a Rovers win.

We are going to absolutely smash Tranmere tomorrow.

I think if we started the season with this exact set up, we would comfortably be top 7, possibly in 1st.

Always had a bit of a soft spot for Tranmere, frankly you guys have been down here too long so I'm rooting for you to bounce back after your inevitable defeat tomorrow and clinch that automatic spot.

Hopefully your team thinks they can smash us and you attack us..

I seriously think this could be the hardest game we have left this season. Never know which Orient is going to turn up. The one we played at Prenton who were far from impressive or the one that smashed Sutton 4-0. I would happily take a draw now it offered one because I have a bad feeling about this game to be honest.

Typical Pools really, we haven't played a match in two weeks and our injury list has seemingly increased, not that it will matter like cos there's no chance our game at Barra will be on, forecast rain and snow tomorrow.

If everyone below us would like to continue to lose that would be great :devil:

Quigley's back on Saturday.

Halifax's defenders will need therapy after what Scott will do to them.

We've definitely been a lot more attacking recently, should be a good game in any case, I'm looking forward to it.

We don't really have anything to lose this season, we won't be going down, and there's no way we'll reach 7th, so pressure is off.

Tomorrow will either provide an extra boost of foolish optimism or will be the final nail in the coffin of our chances. We're fucking useless against giants so i'm going for the latter.

That's our problem - 8 of the 11 have their heads in the clouds

Going to have a tenner on Dagenham on the basis it’s on TV and players who’s contracts are at risk will want to put themselves in the shop window..

And you've got a decade to come.

I will take that bet.

Don’t be silly. In the hunt for top 7, sure, and we’re much improved, but the Aldershot and Boreham Wood games (and shipping 3 terrible goals when 3-0 up at Dover) show that we’re a way off being genuine promotion candidates. Plenty to be more positive about, but it’s not time to be popping the champagne corks just yet.

We’ve sold 400 tickets for Orient. Should be over 500 travelling with pay on the days.

Big six pointers coming up at Woking vs Chester and Barrow vs Hartlepool.

Also, the Tranmere vs Orient game will end in a boring 0-0 draw where neither team has much opportunity to dominate.

Hopefully a continuation of our annual 6 points against Chester and we’ll be alright in terms of relegation.

Don't waste your money pal, we have lost some really important players and have one win in 10 games prior. We lost at home to Solihull last time out with a full squad. Our players have known for a couple of months about the empty pot, and are currently worried about not being paid end of the month.

Our fans have backed Aldershot, was a great price mid week but not so now.

Are you mad?! Every chance we will be 2 points above the drop zone come 5pm Saturday, we are nowhere near safe and need at least 4 wins to give us a good chance! We are still, very, very suspect at the back for one..............

Gutted, i should just be waking up in premier inn in beckton now where I always stay overnight for london away games, instead im stuck in work till one...oh the joys!!!

As for the game I watched the 0's beat the french on you tube 4-3 and they looked scarily good going forward however switched off and made silly mistakes at the back... sounds just like us... in stuck between 3-3 and 0-0 , but deffo a well earned point each .
