    Shame we don’t do a player of the match, think their keeper might have got it, would probably be quiet a unique double.

    Any truth to the rumour that as part of Reg's transfer to Orient, they were contractually obliged to ensure he play the full 90 against us?

    Silly billy, I saw your criticism of Small on the score on the doors but he is playing on the wrong side so his crosses with his right foot will be a tad erratic but his relationship with Ramsey is the reason he spends more time on the right and TC and Edwards more on the left. We needed players to bond and assist each other and Ramsey confirmed this in an interview about his understanding with Thierry.
    I'm definitely a fan of switching TC and Small to their natural sides to give defenders a different problem  during a game for a period  but while it's works no problem and you must realise if and when his crosses are sublime he won't be playing for CAFC ! Sad but true.
    Seen too many good players leave CAFC so if we win and talents like Small have an average game no problems as Small on the right with Ramsey and Edwards on the left with TC are the reasons that we have improved and the results endorse this thought.

    I just wish that our players wouldn't goad the home fans. I find it unclassy and unnecessary. 
    It’s an odd one this, because generally I don’t think we do goad the oppo fans that much. Maybe a bit, but it’s not something I’ve noticed when watching on tv. Happy to be corrected by those who go to games, but that’s my impression. 
    Makes me wonder if there was a particularly nasty element in the Orient crowd yesterday? It’d surprise me because I’ve always felt Os fans were alright. I know NJ mentioned getting dogs abuse, but he was in a totally different part of the ground from where our players went to do their shithousing.

    Think Small was going to feign an injury to waste time and the ref was saying it was basically over anyway

    Apparently there were lots of racist comments aimed at our players.

    A cruel irony that the Orient player on the line for both goals was Sean Clare, the look on his face when the ball hits the back of the net is priceless.

    Post-match we walked up to Alfred Hitchcock’s old manor at Leytonstone and had a few celebratory pints and pizzas in The North Star. Very nice (I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many babies and ankle biters in a pub, even in Blackheath !).


    We were in the red lion in Leytonstone prior to the game, loads of young families in there also. 
    Passed it on the way back - looked a nice pub. Google said it was closed. Leytonstone a bit posher than Leyton High Road !
    I lived in Leytonstone 2008-2010 and it definitely wasn’t posh then! That whole neighbourhood has changed a lot in recent years.

    Well, if that’s true it’s both understandable that our players rubbed it in their faces, but it’s also very disappointing that this is still a thing at football matches.

    Forgot about it but Ramsey’s goal saving header under the bar was also pivotal to the win.

    Decent view of celebrations from about 5.45 onwards or so
    Well worth watching. Nice to see their lad at the end in awe of the away fans.

    A few Orient fans waiting bravely behind a police line by the park outside as I left, clearly looking to start something, I just laughed right into one of their faces telling him he doesn’t have the minerals, not as brave when fronted and his mates didn’t back him up, absolute melts.

    Walked into the electric pub at 14.00 no problem.  Security didn't give a shit. Took ages to get a pint as you would imagine.

    A couple of orient fans were taking to me obviously unaware I was a Charlton fan. They couldn't hide their delight in hoping they would smash us and we're 2 bob still living on our premiership times.

    I  did pop on afterwards hoping to bump into them but the queue was too long.

    We need to start bumping our goal difference up, it might come down to the wire.

    Yeah we had a few teenage melts giving it Charlie big spuds as we came out of the ground - only a few words from us, and they melted away (sorry for the pun !!)

    I’m sure I will be corrected, but never experienced twat behaviour from Orient fans before, but there were some major bellends hanging around post match yesterday

    Not sure if you've missed the wink face at end of your post. 

    Hope you're not being serious anyway. 

    From what Jones said, he was getting some nasty abuse all game from Orient fans. Maybe, just maybe, some players also heard some of it. Hence the extra animated celebrations towards home end. 
    Nah I think it’s proper knobby , I thought it was a Cnut move when Stansfield did it to us at Birmingham , on the ridiculous thought of maybe they heard Nathan being called names , well that was in a completely different place to the ground where you go and give it if that’s the way you feel .

    That was very odd - just random Orient fans waiting outside the away end trying to start something. The age of them too, it wasn’t just teenagers being dickheads, some of those blokes were in their 40’s & 50’s. If you’re over the age of 17 and you want to spend your Saturday evening standing outside a park trying to get a rise out of fans of another football team you’ve really got to consider whether you’re making the most of your life.

    Mitchell was dishing it out to one set of fans at The Valley earlier in the season. I’m not fussed either way but dish it out you have to expect it back. Just like at a reserve game at Welling back in the day I gave Cascarino stick and he turned round and shouted ‘shut up fatty’ to me. Didn’t bother me, found it funny, I dished it out, I got it back.

    Just as Berry’s awful miss was pivotal to us being behind in the first place.

    That was fucking brilliant 
    absolutely shattered after that bouncing around like a loon at the end and for 20 mins after 
    Kids were getting shit from Orient mates during the game sending messages etc and they gave them a barrel load back ….
    those missed chances were beyond pathetic but the result is what mattered 
    I get goosebumps watching it all over again(I reckon I’ve watch it 20 times at least and from plenty of different angles , thank you to all who put up those links )
    and the scenes and limbs were superb 
    mrs told me off for standing on a chair at the end and bouncing around like a mad man cos I could fall and hurt myself or someone else , I wouldn’t have felt any pain in that ground at any point  I’d had to hold little shit for the whole game as he stood on a chair and Peter Kay was on crutches   Poor fucker , 
    petrol head was buzzing 2nd in some go kart guff in the morning and that win, me and him going Stockport now was gonna be mum but I’m a glory boy .
    i said I’d need a couple of viagra to raise one for an Orient v Charlton game wrong ❌ yesterday smashed that view to pieces .
    eieieio

    Unfortunately the old south London adage of “don’t give it if you can’t take it” has been lost in modern society. See as an example fans who’ll give an opposition player dogs abuse all match and then lose their minds if said player makes some minor gesture towards them after he inevitably scores a goal.

    Do you mean against Wrexham? I’m pretty sure he was shithousing that knobhead James McClean rather than the fans, but I may have forgotten him winding the fans up too to be fair. 🤔
    Either way, I’m with you on this in that it doesn’t bother me too much either way. One of those things like timewasting or holding the ball in the corner where you love your team doing it but hate the oppo doing it!
