The Official Leyton Orient V Bristol City Match Day Thread

[Lordofthebling]

Unbelievable. You cannot describe the feeling when our second went in..

I know it's league one, but it felt like a real

"I was there" moment!!

- Sam baldock - the best I've ever seen him play.

- Apparently some rapper called chipmunk was in the crowd-mate of JET? Get him there every week.

- Greg Cunningham - amazing!

- Flint - a cult hero!!

Now the drive home.... Yeeessss!!!!

[Murraysrightplum]

Jesus Christ, just got in from 5 a side and we actually won a game???

Well done to the lads and the manager, sounds like it was deserved. Onwards and upwards.

i am getting an uncontrollable feeling of excitement

[TNBT]

if we get a win Saturday who thinks we could push for a decent mid table finish then?

I reckon it's possible if this puts a bit more confidence in the team :-)

[WhistleHappy]

Jeez a brillaint win and still the same bickering from some.

everyone would be united if it wasnt for Lee bloody Johnson ...

[Cider red]

Glad I didn't go tonight. Been to ten away games and no wins. was contemplating this one but im clearly a bad omen. Well done lads fantastic result. Sounds like we completely bossed them, like we should be doing to teams in this league. On to Tranmere now, lets try and get a decent crowd in and push on up the league!

[Nibor]

Great result, well done!

[Oxford Red]

They made no noise at all other than on their goal and to get Moore carded for time wasting.

They hurled abuse at their own keeper on Flints goal then started walking out, hence the fire drill chant, which I enjoyed!

[Robin 101]

up til the weekend,orient were cu next tuesdays for calling that game off,well tuesday came and so did city.they were right to be scared and they got beat,just like they would have done new years day,or would they??? serves them right either way :chant6ez:

[cidersnotjustforbreakfast]

Were the famous Bristol city and were going to the top ! were better than united , and were louder than the kop ! our name is Bristol city and we play at ashton gate ! so come on all you city fans , let's sing and celebrate ! don't mind me , I'm having a moment ! yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees ! me babehs !!!!!!!!!!

[Chivs]

Only negative in the table now is, a number of teams have games in hands over us.

 

I believe some of them, are fellow relegation struggler's up against one another.

It's not a negative.  Crawley are on exactly the same points as us with the same goal difference.  I assume they are below us alphabetically (or is it then goals scored??).

 

Anyway, after they lose their 6 (yes six!!) games in hand their goal difference will be awful and we continue up the table.

[Harry]

Thank goodness SC did what you thought he should have done Harry!

Indeed Nick.  Let's hope he sticks with my man Pack as well eh.  Cotterill has dropped him a few times but hopefully the following stats will put an end to that :

 

Pack Under Cotterill :

 

Games NOT Started : Played 3, Lost 3.

Games Started : Played 8, Won 3, Drawn 4, Lost 1 (and in that loss he was subbed at half time).

 

So basically Steve, play Pack for 90 mins and you'll be fine.  Oh, and make sure he's taking corners too.

 

It's an easy game this Nick. 

[Oxford Red]

What, like some of ours did to el-abd v coventry.

We aren't third and promotion chasing.

I expected a lot better from them to be honest.

Also there was still loads of time after Flints goal and the Orient seemed to have no urgency about them at all.

They just sort of gave up.

I've said for the past month that I think we'll finish closer to the playoffs than relegation.... the team will be well up for it Saturday and Flinty will believe he can score every game.    

[bemmyredjeff]

Apart from the usual suspects, lets hope the likes of wade elliott gets some praise on here after being severely castigated against carlisle.

[bucksred]

THAT is what you call a win a 3 goal to one win away at a top three side in this division. One most of us didn't expect, least of all Leyton Orient.

 

We scored first, the scorer scored on his first attempt, we built on it, scored a second. Unfortunately we conceded one, just before half time.

 

But we still went on and added a third, one the scorer put in the right goal, his second in two games.

 

Game over, well done lads. 21 points to safety, 

 

Now lets kick on and beat Tranmere, Saturday.

 

Calls for a cider or two....

 

Well done to all of um....

Calm down Jeff lad....we won!! Plus JET was good

[A Horse With No Name]

Just got back to the car.

Last time I saw City win away it was 3-1.

People said I was mad to go to Carlisle.

People said I was mad to go to Leyton.

Well if this is madness, sign me up.

 

You went to Carlisle, but you have forgotten the score. We won 4-2

[Frenchay Red]

Just been reading their forum, obviously not a happy bunch, "well beaten by a bottom 4 team" was one comment I particularly liked.

 

Great result.

[bemmyredjeff]

Good, that's what a near bottle of wine does to you i'm afraid.

[Oxford Red]

:laugh:

Got my Carlisle visits muddled .

Put it this way I have seen us only ever win up there!

[Oxford Red]

Great result.

There must be loads who have been on there all night judging by the empty seats....

[You Do The Dziekanowski]

Thank you to all the fans who went tonight

Quality pictures of you celebrating the goals on twitter.

You deserved to see a fabulous performance

[LoyalRed]

Just checked the result from sunny Orlando, cracking result... Right, back to the pool and a beer to enjoy now

[Nogbad the Bad]

not really....fair play to him though

 

Flint not really shutting up the critics? 

 

Four good games in a row and 2 important goals not enough for some to get behind him then? 

 

As I said yesterday Flint will go on to become a very popular City player, mark my words.

[stephenkibby.]

what sounded so encouraging was that we took the game to orient from the start.

 

and in recent times there goal on half time would have spelled another defeat,but fair play great result!!!
