REPD, I hate penalties. As mentioned recently somewhere on social media, Josie Guy, Eileen Samuelson and myself were hiding in the loos in Manchester. I emerged knowing that we just needed Kedwell to score and I have video footage deeply buried on my phone/computer/somewhere.

Thanks Meadow.

DD, absolutely not. A yellow in the second leg following a yellow in the first will not lead to a ban. It doesn't follow in the normal season so why would it apply in the playoffs?

Nice interview with Omar Beckles after Orient’s win - didn’t realise he was PFA chair… Could be an Orient vs Charlton final too 😯🤗

Spart - in the past few hours, you have called me “nasty, spiteful and snidey”, and “a horrible little cunt”, and “a real piece of shit of a human being” - meanwhile, I have tried to make it clear that I’ll do better or face the consequences. I’m not sure that I can say or do any more than that…

Don't think I saw an answer to this question (and recognising that people may simply not know the answer): would a yellow in the second leg of the semi result in a player being suspended for the final if they also received a yellow in the first leg? (As Nick says, Omar does tend to attract them...)

Hard luck to Stockport County and their squillionaire local-boy-done-good owner who’s repaying his community by investing in the local football club. Football ownership done right 👍

Confession time - I love penalty shootouts

Such a cruel end to a season to lose on penalties.

Well done Orient 👏🥳

Good news Waggy. Let's get Bert to Wombley. Apologies to the football gods but I've already offended them by booking holiday for the bank holiday Monday.

nick - I agree, start Stevens and bring on Omar later 👍

Jatta not Jetta

A4e, Jetta has been charged about his reactions after the red card, has until Friday to respond . [Link]

A4e - you can be as objectionable or contrarian as you like, it is the unnecessary nastiness that seems to be the problem with you.

Meadow - maybe yeah 🤗

Changing man I think starting with Omar would be a very risky plan. I think it will be very high intensity after the way the first leg ended and Omar gives away too many free kicks and referees penalise him more than other players. We could be down to 10 men if County wind him up and that would be a disaster. I think he is a very good impact sub in games like this one bit bringing him on would probably mean sacrificing Stevens though, who would be one of our penalty takers if it ends up there.

a4e, not seen anything so I guess not. TBH, given his reaction after the red card, they and he are probably worried about additional banning time and fines.

Looking like pens in the Stockport Orient game…

*Jatta

Anyone know whether County appealed the Jatya red card…?

Scrolling through a scores website and I see that North Greenford Utd lost another Combined Counties Premier Challenge Cup final this evening. 21 years ago they lost to us, tonight it was against Cobham.

Sutton Utd did play 9towns on the left

Stockport throwing away the best opportunity to win in the last minute.

A4E: me too especially with the away teams doing so well in the play offs so far 😬😬😳😳
