Match Thread | Leyton Orient vs. Man City (08/02/25)

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

On the hour bring big Erl on for ten minutes, fastest ever FA Cup hatrick,
finishes Orient 1 City 5

He's not on the bench.

 

[The Norfolk Blue]

Just stay calm City. Played well.

It’s was turgid and as pedestrian as it always is.

 

[Father Paul]

Arsenal? Their first 2 goals were deflected in and Ortega got a hand to the third

Fuck off your having me on. Talk about trying to rewrite history. Those goals had a reason and deflection was not a significant part of them.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

On the bright side Reis has looked alright

 

[burning blue soul]

Give Guardiola another 175m and he will fix it.

Eyup!!! Are you one of them 'other clubs fans' Johnny's who covertly come here and throw in idiotic comments you think we will not pick up on?

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Very true. Well said. They’ve given us nothing to be positive about for years

I was replying specifically to THIS game.

Seeing as it is the MATCH DAY THREAD!!!

We've been miles the better team, we've had 3 clear cut chances. They've had a worldie from the half way line.

Not quite they've caused us problems a few times on the break.

 

[Marvin.]

Give us 175m and we’d still refuse to buy players to address the deficiencies at RB and CM

I don't think we've played badly at all in that 1st half. They've just scored a very good goal. Bernardo, and Gundogan has half chances and Marmoush should have scored.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Jesus fucking wept. Go and have a tug

Good suggestion as Fordy is usually in a wank match thread mood.

 

[Bluemoon115]

Well, 45 minutes from our last hope of a trophy being flushed away like a post kebab misery poo.

 

[Gaz76]

Or that cup tie we lost at Brentford when they were shit.

Gary blisset the ****

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

Hope they tire. Giving us a game. Jammy twats with the goal. Should be at least level. Reckon we've got this. Hope so.

 

[I'm Blue]

Stones on what could possibly go wrong?

 

[Blu1]

Pep risking players we can’t afford to today

 

[super_city_si]

Stones and khusanov. Makes sense…..

 

[remember arthur mann]

We're playing a lower division team, you can't play football against these, as proven against the rags. Get the fooker up and get it in the net, simple.

 

[Nas_City]

Stones? Rather he not get risked.

 

[GOULDYBOBS]

I am very pissed off - not at that pathetic display - and I’ve posted on the pre-match forum (sorry if you’ve already read this). But I am sitting on Row Q at the far end by the halfway line - next to the home fans, and there are over 20 empty seats around me - and those that are full are tourists - a group of Chinese and a group of Middle East folks and to top it all - three Orient fans that I had kicked out after they celebrated - I’m sorry, I’ve got lads who were desperate to come - but missed out on 23,000 points. It’s a fucking disgrace - something is happening with our away allocation. I am fucking outraged.

Club need to sort it out before it matches the home support

 

[madloaf]

Stones and khusanov. Makes sense…..

Best manager in the world.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

I have just watched González’s debut back. He looks good, blocking, passing, reading the game. After the foul at the goal he was in obvious pain for the next 5 minutes but carried on, so he is tough and brave. It’s such a shame we won’t have him for the Real game but hopefully the injury is minor and we have him to try and turn our PL form around for the rema

It’s just getting worse and worse isn’t it

Just watch the fucking game.....50 minutes to play yet !!
