Wiki tells us

Leyton Orient were originally formed by members of the Glyn Cricket Club in 1881, many of whom were former students of the Independent College, Homerton in nearby Hackney (now Homerton College in Cambridge); an annual fixture is still held between the club and the college. The team has had several name changes since, first as Eagle Cricket Club in 1886, then as Orient Football Club in 1888.

The 12 history books written on the club by its historian Neilson N. Kaufman between 1974 and 2015 suggest that the choice of the name Orient came about at the behest of a player, Jack R Dearing, who was an employee of the Orient Steam Navigation Company, later part of P&O. The club's name was changed again to Clapton Orient in 1898 to represent the area of London in which they played, though there was another team called Clapton F.C.
Originally Clapton later Leyton which was omitted in 1966-1987.

am i missing something here?

you started a thread about facts that you did not know,
then went on to list a load of facts that you do know,
followed by asking people to list facts that they do not know,
and in turn people list facts that they know.

there are countless facts i do not know.
how am i expected to list them?
madness of the highest order.

Andy Morrison colliding heads with the Colchester centre-forward.

Andy got up, shook his head and couple of times, and carried on.

The Colchester player had to go off.
