    Fuck your dark arts Pratley.

    Pratley by name, Prat by nature. 

    Anyway apologies to my dog who I woke up with a cheer as that Ramsey header hit the net.
    I loved the header against the bar, plus 2nd half the desperate lunge when grounded to illegally bring down our player- he was too slow....... seen enough of him for a lifetime

  • Pratley is just the sort of player you want if you're in a bottom half scrap/relegation battle, which in fairness is probably what Orient expected this season, but when you're pushing for promotion? I wouldn't want him as a regular starter

  • What an afternoon. To get nothing from that would have been gutting. To get all three wow I think I want marry you Jonesy. 
    Going home for a lie down in a dark room

    That’s the kind of result that breeds a belief that can put a team on a long winning streak ! 2nd place not out of the question 
    Yep. You can only play one game at a time though.

    Take the 3 points and on to the next.

    Or perhaps, Orient were having their good run, rise up the table and and push for promotion, since Pratley was restored to the team? 
     

  • I heard a bit of noise from his room at the same time as someone on here (won't mention any names @ ForeverAddicted) said we'd equalised...
    Nope... Deserved time in the stocks for that!!

    Its why I hesitated so much when I saw on there that we'd got the winner, even the equaliser

    Orient fans calling us one of the most physical and robust teams they've played this season, and not in a dirty or underhanded way, just a physically strong outfit that bullied them all game.

    Such a good thing to hear after having years and years of powderpuff squads unable to see out games
    The exciting thing about that is that when Jones got Luton going, both times, there were very much a “run through brick walls for the manager” type of team and that momentum and determination was enough to take them places. He never got his Southampton or Stoke teams to buy into it but the signs here now are that he has managed to establish the culture he needs to be successful. There was a lot of passion in display from the players at full time today and they all look so together. Plus they’re as fit as they come. Maybe, just maybe, we really are seeing the start of something. 

    Exactly this. If the team buys into Jones then result like this happen. It took longer than perhaps he would have liked, but that is because we have been a shitshow for so long. Now we can see what he can create. My brother in law a lifetime Luton fan told me the same.
    Brick walls .. Nathan Jones... He can take us back to Div2 and if the owners can find some money even further.
