Let's talk about the Leyton Orient game

[graingrover]

Our last visit to the Orient turned out well for me . I spent too long with family in a pub pre match  had to het a taxi to the ground in time for ko .I must have dropped my wallet between the seats .Two days later I got an email from the taxi driver to say he had posted my wallet to me by registered mail to the address card he found in it with other of my IDs  !London cabbies are a special breed !

[roversdude]

Return of Edd the Duck tomorrow guys (although begrudgingly I have to say he was decent away at Grimsby last season)

I’ve got a spare. PM me if interested.

[Canadian Rover]

Think I got sorted, if anything changes I'll reach out mate. Appreciate the message.

[selby]

 We need a result, if we can't win don't lose.

I’m stuck on the M11. I think there has been a major collision up ahead. At least 4 ambulances and 2 fire engines have gone past.

[Alan Southstand]

According to Google maps, there looks to be several accidents - all before Standsted airport.


Location : The M11 southbound between junctions J10 and J8 . Reason : Road traffic collision. Status : Currently Active. Time To Clear : The event is expected to clear between 15:15 and 15:30 on 11 October 2025. Return To Normal : Normal traffic conditions are expected between 15:15 and 15:30 on 11 October 2025. Lanes Closed : All lanes are closed.

It would be a shame if O'Riordan is out. However, we have some experience back there in Pearson, McGrath & Grehan. And with Pawlak coming through as a good prospect and one for the future.

It would be nice to see Gotts get a run.

I can't see much in Hanlan. He looks clumsy on the ball, and he doesn't look sharp enough for L1 level.

[Alan Southstand]

Grehan on International duty today.

Thank you for the update. Looks like I’m not ticking Brisbane Road off today

I believe in Grant’s signing of Olusanya and was interested to hear him say he would be an important asset this season ..he did not say until January ..so have faith in Grant’s judgement against your own personal prejudices is my thought .

Olusanya not in today’s squad.

Must be on the plane back … 

[Padge_DRFC]

Wouldn't do any worse than that garbage. Probably would have had a better game at CB

[Spilsby Red]

Changing side to regularly. Sorry but garbage McCann

[selby]

 Shipping goals again

[DRFCTom]

I actually agree with the changing too much. We need a regular centre back pairing and to stick with it.
Both centre backs poor today, I think they both perform better when playing with a leader type like Pearson.
Next game Middleton, gotts and Broadbent have to start

[Avsuptem]

Crap in defence, crap in midfield, crap upfront, apart from Billy.

[DRFCMach2man]

Gone to -5 goal difference in the blink of an eye

[Padge_DRFC]

McGrath is our worst CB. Fans love him because he fist pumps the badge to the south stand. Not enough to be turning £500k down.

Shipping goals again

Has McCann got a grip on his problems. Tactics today lacked any impact or creativity upfront . Mistakes happen this is often why teams score , but when heads go down , this has to be a lack of belief of what to do next !!

[mushRTID]

It’s ok guys..
dickos will be along to tell us we’d all have taken 10th at this stage, before the season started.

[richtherover]

I think we're on the crest of a slump.

[steve@dcfd]

Grant and his staff have got to get us hard to beat again.
I’m not going to tell who select
But the squad are not as good as we all thought
We can’t score enough goals
Today our defence made too many mistakes
It’s good having the possession but we don’t do anything with it.

[mushRTID]

Can we just pick the best players and give them 5 or 6 games together.

That does not include SBarra, Lawlor, Senior, Close,  McGrath!!!

This is exactly the problem. Just keep it simple for a while. Fair enough we’re never going to set the world alight going forward but we can be competitive and play well if we pick a solid side

[Chris Black come back]

It’s worrying how few chances we have created in the last two months, outside 20 minutes in first half last week.

When you’re relying on your defensive midfielder to pick most of your points up, it isn’t going to last long.

I remember saying during the Mansfield game how toothless we looked. We haven’t looked like improving this Bradford aside.

[Bills view]

Have to say McGrath looks well off it. Some awful mistakes and poor defending. He’s struggled this season. So far at least.

O’Riordan’s early mistake at the start compounded by player slipping too easy past McGrath for the first set the tone.

We looked all over the place defensively and not much of a threat up top.

Sharp was excellent again, though.

Not much else going for that game.

[Scooter]

Well I made it to the ground for the start of the second half

I wish I hadn’t have bothered
