Orient are a stand up piece of London football history. They may never of mixed with the "big boys" on a regular basis, and i am sketchy on their history, but if i looked into it closely enough, i suspect i'd find that they have a similar story board to most clubs of their historic stature.
They would of been owned, shafted, and fucked around with by idiots, con men and idiotic con men. They would of skirted that fine line between success, the chance of a flirtation with the promised land. They would of been 20 minutes from annihilation. Supported by good people, led on and let down by bad people in equal measure.
I wish them the best of luck and without seeming too disingenuous, i hope we do not play them in the league for some time.18 -

Yep, I was cursing the ref on the match thread, but at least we had the commentators explaining what the hell was going on.fenlandaddick said:
I was livid at 1-0 up. Levels of stress went through the roof thinking about injury time. I guessed 13 mins, so thankfully 11 wasn't too bad.Stu_of_Kunming said:In their defense, I would have been absolutely livid with that ridiculous delay from the ref had we been 1-0 down.Spent about 5 minutes asking everyone around us if they knew what was going on. Mate had sky app on his mobile and worked out the ref had the comms issue.Ironic really poor comms over a Comms issue 😄
Heard from on high, up on the 5th level during the impasse:
"Are we there yet"
"The ref's being subbed"
"Sky TV want to show adverts"
"I blame the Russians"
"It's good to talk"
"This is Bollocks"
"Shit happens"
"This is good for Charlton"
"The players look so Small, especially Thierry!"
"The ref is one of our own"
"I wandered lonely as a cloud"
"We are so near yet so far from the promised land"
"Talk Talk"

" The truth about the Nathan Jones rumours "
Given that news came just a couple of days before Charlton's triumph in the League One play-off final, it seems inconceivable that candidate wasn't boyhood City fan Jones.
Jones has certainly been a contender, however the complication would clearly relate to the three years left on his deal at The Valley, which would require significant compensation for him and his backroom staff. Not to mention the fact that Charlton would be very reluctant to allow their promotion-winning manager to leave.
(Ramsey as player/manager) Has always been my choice but who knows. The Jones rumour was probably started by the club to boost ST sales. (at least we are not the only club to use Jones as a marketing tool
)

It is a matter of considerable concern that there has been no formal communication from the club to fans in respect of where we are in appointing a new manager.
Feel sorry for them tbh no communication (from their board) other than stupid rumours made up on the internet.0 -

If they say "the search is ongoing" or "talks continue" they will get "why is it taking so long?" and "you're all incompetent, appoint someone now".
They can't say "we're talking to Buckingham and Ramsey" or whoever because the talks are confidential and no manager wants it out there that they didn't get chosen and no club wants it out there that they got turned down.

I don't disagree from an infrastructure perspective that things are more positive, but I can promise you, with 2 new additions, this team goes down.eastterrace6168 said:

He's wrong here.Todds_right_hook said:I’ve had a meeting this morning with an orient supporter, who is friends with a board member.
his view was that we were the better team, he also said we are championship ready and they aren’t.
they had the 13th biggest budget, finished 6th and had a 13 hr drinking session at Wembley, he was disappointed by content.3 -
With Championship clubs sacking managers, needing managers, not paying their players, losing their parachute money etc it sounds like there is potential for a right shit show to fuck up the season for more than a few clubs. We just need to make sure we take advantage of that.3

"somehow Yann Kermorgant will be out of retirement to put the boot in again" made me laugh too, good gallows humour thread.
Watch them win now!15 -
That’s remarkable, 7 pages of posts and only 4 of them think they’ll win1

Quite impressed with the standard of posts on both BCFC and Leicester forums. Not as good as here, obvs, but much better than many others.6

Higher intellect of fan in the Championship. They aren’t all bumpkins or from some tiny northern hellhole. Millwall the obvious exception to the increased intellect rule.IdleHans said:Quite impressed with the standard of posts on both BCFC and Leicester forums.

I was very impressed with the quality on the BCFC forum. The vast majority were balanced and quite a few insightful. Interesting that as many of them were citing TC as our best player as were Ramsay.IdleHans said:Quite impressed with the standard of posts on both BCFC and Leicester forums.

Honestly been really impressed by all the championship club forums , even the Watford fans when they weren't having digs at NJ found time to compliment the likes of Josh Edwards for shutting down Baah.3

I've liked the Leicester forums ever since that fan came on here begging the mods to unban Nathan so he'd annoy us instead of them.9

I wanted to see what the Sheffield United fans were saying after our win but the only forum I could find, S24SU, was completely unreadable due to junk and clutter on the pages. So glad we've got Charlton Life, head and shoulders above the rest. Thanks guys.18

100% agree.

Took a while to find out where they'd drawn it but the Millwall Life summary of our recent match was as expected.
