@BillyCarroll21 @OrientOutlook Wow, didn’t realise that, thanks.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook He's got 3 years with the option of a fourth which the club would trigger

BALLARD AGAIN OLE OLE…🎉 ☀️EPISODE 423☀️will be here late tonight on iTunes, Spotify & soundcloud.com/orient-outlook as your South Stand Chums will talk the weeks that was at #LOFC & we’ll be interviewing Dom Ballard.🔥 Tweet us your q’s for Dom & we’ll do our best to ask them!👍

@Orientsphincter @leytonorientfc @mebaker2001 At least you’re honest! 😂

@leytonorientfc @mebaker2001 I really like him atm Till we lose again Then I’ll decide whether I’ve booked him down as a Whopper or not Love this Mob

🗣️ "We need to keep the focus on the next game and continue this good run." 👊 Richie Wellens speaks ahead of Saturday's game against Wycombe Wanderers 👇 #LOFC #OneOrient

Big game tomorrow, i'd take a draw at this stage with a good defensive performance. Main thing is to not regress back to the crap we saw at the Bradford game. #lofc

@millarpresident @TheUntoldGame @OrientOutlook Initially maybe, on the short term deal. But in my opinion, afterwards, he did enough to justify a longer deal. His performances (and quite frankly most of the teams performances) since have not been good enough.

@TheUntoldGame @Garicko7 @OrientOutlook I think he does get targeted because he is Wellens son, but you have to remember he only got signed because he's Wellens son. "He looks lost", totally sums him up for me as he spends the majority of the game ambling around the midfield with the game passing him by.

Also, @OrientOutlook where are the people complaining of nepotism now after that pass from Wellens to Ballard? #lofc

Out of interest who deal with transfer negotiations now? I’m hoping it’s Travis, so he can tell anyone after Ballard about how many businesses he runs. With any luck he’ll put them to sleep and we can keep the kid for another year #lofc

@leytonorientfc @OrientOutlook Dom BallardD'or

@TheUntoldGame @OrientOutlook He's not the only one under performing, and he isn't immune to criticism, I'm critical of him also. I just think he's unfairly targeted because of who he is, but as I've heard recently, it's a matter of opinions, and i welcome yours. I enjoy twitter debates. #lofc

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook But I don’t want to keep slagging him. He’s been better for the last eight day, and I’ll stick to my opinion but feels harsh to be kicking at him after three wins on the spin 😂

@TheUntoldGame @OrientOutlook If we’d had another midfielder on a short term contract, who’s surname wasn’t Wellens, and they got 2 goals and 2 assists in 9 games, would you think that was worthy of a contract? Seems like he’s a scapegoat in a vastly underperforming team, because of who his dad is.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook He put some numbers on the board, but his performances weren’t up to scratch then either. He got the longer contract in part because of his dad, and in part because we were so wrecked by injuries and he’ll play anywhere (which is a genuine positive for any player).

Abdullai and Mitchell deserve credit too. Put in some good performances the last few games. #lofc

@TheUntoldGame @OrientOutlook Between him signing the short term deal and the long term deal he played nine times and got two goals and two assists in that time. He hasn’t lived up to it since I agree, but I fail to understand the nepotism argument when he put in performances worthy of a contract.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook I’ll hold my hands up and say he’s upped his game the last three outings. But he’s not League One quality. His positional play is atrocious and his awareness is lacking. In a season they told us was building on a playoff final, he was signed because of who his dad is.

@Orientsphincter @OrientOutlook He has been shit at times but he’s also had quality moments, I’m hopeful for the future he’s only young. Get that not everyone feels that way though.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook Was still at the Bar Just seen it To be fair that was a cracking pass Credit where it’s due

@Orientsphincter @OrientOutlook You and I disagree on things but it’s always respectful and I’m grateful for that. Fair enough. But good idea, gonna refer to him as the Salford Pirlo from now on.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook But when you making sweeping statements at the start as if he’s Pirlo I’ll call it as I see it Whether that’s right or wrong You don’t see nepotism I do But that’s cool

@Orientsphincter @OrientOutlook There was competition in the first half, the back four being amongst them. He’s by no means our best player, but my argument has always been that he was signed for the right reasons, that’s all.

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook Literally knew 200 people went to tonight and he was our worst player again mate You can feel different that’s cool But he’s the weakest link Truth hurts

@BillyCarroll21 @OrientOutlook Genuinely think that’s the most positive thing I’ve seen you tweet, maybe the tide is turning! 😂

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook El Miz being back appears to have woken Charlie up a bit. Much better the last couple of games

@OrientOutlook Poor defensively first half, brilliant second half. Credit to the manager for the tactical changes, and to the defense for sorting themselves out second half. Dom Ballard, what a player. A good result at the weekend and we really start to pull away from the drop.

YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS What a night in SW London for #lofc as we bring all 3 points back to E10! Superb performances all over the pitch but special mention to hattrick hero Dom Ballard who is now on 21 goals for the season. Thoughts?

Can’t believe seeing some fans saying we should get Nolan back, fuckin clowns #LOFC

@Orientsphincter @mebaker2001 @OrientOutlook Yeah I said that elsewhere, was out of the game for most of it tbh. Still, good ball in. Hopefully he can pick up some form

@Garicko7 @mebaker2001 @OrientOutlook Brilliant cross for the goal Didn’t do much else though Definitely the weakest player in the side But it’s a team game

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS… It’s Ballard at the double as the O’s take the points with a 2-1 win at Stevenage. Thoughts on tonight? #LOFC

@JmeRay72 @OrientOutlook He's certainly athletic enough for it

@Garicko7 @OrientOutlook Hes a decent player in that position. Hopefully he gets more opportunities there.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS… The Orient win again as goals from Jack Simpson & Tyreeq Bakinson see the O’s beat Posh 2-1. Thoughts on today? #LOFC
