Accrington vs Last Ever Away game Orient.

[The Terminator]

Well, this could be our last ever away game. May as well make the most of it. We will have Gavin Massey back at least, but he is more effective out wide rather than up front, which is where he will be played.

Should be an entertaining game between two sides who like to play the game the right way.

Can't see our youngsters getting anything, but we'll try and make it a good one.

This is probably the first time over the past two seasons that Accy won't play us off the park in footballing terms, but will probably rack up a wide score line. 5-0.

 

[NolansOrient]

Doesn't matter after about 8 consecutive home defeats against average sides.

Therefore we will definitely win 1 - 2

 

[Stanleyfan]

We're very unpredictable still but after a good result away at Exeter I'm fairly confident (although I thought that when we played you away in December...)
I hear your fans are having a bucket collection tonight - I'm sure our fans will be happy to contribute especially as we've been in the shit a number of times (2009 was very nearly the end for us)
All the best - apart from on the pitch tonight

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Vanni need your magic mate.

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Well, that was a disaster.

Hmm.

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Sounds like they played us off the park though.

 

[Laker]

I feel guilty about my "rant" in our match thread tonight. Gutted for you O's, this is really shit :-(

 

[Bucket_]

All the best to you O's - Nasty memories are being stirred up seeing what you're going through and I wouldn't wish it anyone, even Southampton (though it pains me to say it)

 

[The Terminator]

We started the game ok, had a few chances in an end to end start, should've had a penalty as well.

But once Accrington got to grips with the game we didn't really get near them. Like Grimsby on Saturday they had too much experience for us to get back into the game.

A glaring weak point for us is that we have nothing up front to hold the ball up as a minimum, we have one senior striker left who is currently injured. Sam Danny is 17 & cant do it on his own & Rowan Liburd is awful.

Credit to Accrington, they played well and are still a good team. The 4th goal was an own goal by our young keeper though, the shot hit the bar and hit him on the back of the leg.

Felt sorry for the players and staff at the end again. Still not good enough, but nothing is really their fault with the squad a virtual youth squad who are now getting battered every week due to inexperience.

 

[Stanleyfan]

Every credit to the travelling Orient fans - I noticed how the majority of them stayed behind to clap their young players off. I suppose losing Nicky Hunt (a former player of ours) was a blow too with his experience.
Some of us were speaking to Danny Webb before the game - seems very down to earth and a good manager.
All the best
