Galty - you should know this. Used to be 7.30pm with some at 7.15pm, but changed to suit TV coverage. Also gives time for those attending after work.

At least we did better v Orient than we did against QPR in the London Senior Cup last night! (Lost 0-4)

RP - your mate did not see the woeful defending from us or our midfield go AWOL. If we repeat that performance on Saturday, Peterborough will help themselves to another 5!!

My mate who as a ST at Peterborough says... "Don’t let our score scare you, Rotherham were awful - 5-0 flattered us, I didn’t think we were very good".

May be of interest... Hungry Bear Media are on the lookout for huge football fans who also have a passion for singing, for a brand new project in development.

Sitting at Euston Station waiting for my train back to North Wales (a 26 hour round trip!) - i have a question. Who determines the kick off time for evening matches? It presumably is not set in stone as i went to the Port Vale away fixture which was at 7pm. 7pm kick off would enable more people to get home without staying over - so personally good for me - but would the Club take more or less in matchday revenue?

Good first half. Second half we looked tired. Orient made 2 subs at half time. JJ did his usual thing and waited until we had gone from 2-1 up to 4 -2 down before making any changes.

Pretty frantic game last night - almost like a cup tie!! I said at HT that I felt we’d need to score the next goal if we were to get anything from the game, and I was right - it’s astounding how good Orient were in the second period compared to the first - veritably a game of two halves!! We have quite a tough run in now, with not too many good opportunities for points, so Saturday is quite important - should be fine, Peterborough only won 5-0 last night (and 5-0 against us at their place too….)!!

Shame we lost but hey ho, at least the game wasn't boring. Nkeng and Ballard are two very exciting young players who could go a long way.

Can we keep him? Well beaten by a superior side that can afford the likes of Ballard up front.

That was a long VAR check in the Africa Cup of Nations final.

Good stuff, well done Junior on your 2 goals thus far.

Well done Joseph

Test

Line closed between clap junc and Balham at mo person been hit

Agreed RP - I can see the sense behind the test but only if the IFR have the teeth to enforce measures for failing. If owners have to put £x into a type of escrow account then that makes sense to me. But how much? How long must a club be able to continue going while a new owner is found? And what if an owner chooses to withdraw funding but not sell à la Chansiri at Wednesday?

Feels like 90% of clubs would go into meltdown if owner funding was suddenly removed

That's us fucked then, Trigs.

[Link] Wonder whether we’d pass this test under current conditions. “ All 116 regulated clubs must have "appropriate financial resources" in order to achieve a full license and will be required to hold a sufficient amount of cash, considered assets able to be converted almost immediately and not including players. Clubs must also prove they have sufficient resources to meet their financial commitments and withstands stresses such as relegation, withdrawal of owner funding or other income shocks. If the IFR believe clubs are at risk of failing to meet the requirements, they may impose specific conditions to get clubs back on track, including the requirement for clubs to hold a sufficient level of liquidity, reducing expenditure or restructuring debt.”

London Senior cup quarter final tonght away to QPR at Hanwell Town too

REPD-everyone’s got fatigue at the moment it will test the depths of the squad

cw - we do not do things the easy way!!! 0-2 and back to back defeats will get many reaching for their worry beads

I was at Orient v Peterborough on Saturday, and while our opponents tonight weren't special they have enough about them to make it difficult this evening.

*(that should say “our last 4 HOME league games” obviously…)*

We’ve scored 11 goals in our last 4 league games, all wins - so I wouldn’t be too surprised if that little run came to an end tonight… Hoping for a draw or better, but not going to be upset with the lads if we lose - they’ve dragged us away from the drop zone pretty well, and I’m fairly sure we will pick up the points needed to stay up…
