It ends goalless at Brisbane Road in a game that won’t live long in the memory as the O’s pick up another point towards League One safety…
Thoughts on tonight? #LOFC
@leytonorientfc as usual the FA and officials close ranks, the way they handle criticism is even more appalling than the standards of refereeing in the EFL
𝗙𝗔 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 📝
Richie Wellens of Leyton Orient has been charged for misconduct following their EFL League One match against Huddersfield Town on Monday 6 April.

@Nin0_Bar0ne I agree. People love him because he throws himself into blocks, but he only looks a little bit better than the awful Happe, Simpson and Beckles before him. The squad, if we stay up, is no where near ready to be challenging for the play offs.
Will Forrester is no where near as good as people seem to make out; he is a painfully average CB in an awful back line making him look miles better than he actually is. Hate hate hate this squad.
@Nin0_Bar0ne end of season games can throw up strange results so Exeter could definitely get more points. If they don't win at least one of Rotherham and Blackpool then the club will get what it deserves
@OrientOutlook just highlights how much of a gap there is between the current Orient squad and where we want to be. Big rebuild required in summer in defense and midfield
Ballard looks increasingly pissed off being forced to play in these shocking systems with no service. If we want him to stay this is absolutely not the way to go about it #lofc
@Bensaddington8 💯 correct, should've moved 3 of them on last summer but all kept on out of sentiment
GK, RB, CB x2, CDM required just for starters to sort out the backline and midfield
Please don’t make the same mistake we did last summer sticking with these mediocre at best centre backs. Happe and Simpson are utter shit REG ain’t the answer when he’s back fit either.
@lordgriff98@TheAthleticFC that's where we get into subjective decisions that aren't being improved (imo they're getting worse and more inconsistent under VAR) plus the long delays and interpretations by the officials that don't match the flow and spirit of the game. The scope needs to be scaled back
@gshaw0@TheAthleticFC Of course you are correct in terms of what VAR was introduced for, but the moment a fan sees there team concede a goal where a foul was made, but it isnt a clear and obvious error, they moan and bitch about it. And you cant say that doesn't happen.
"It really is not as easy as you think it is."
Graham Scott, who worked in the Premier League for more than a decade, debunks three myths about being a referee, including fans wanting consistency, officials not being held accountable and the 'clowns' running VAR.
@OrientOutlook another reminder why this squad still needs a lot of changes over summer, also 11 injuries at this stage of the season tells its own story
@ChrisButSports@TobyofLocksley the stadium won't be handed to the club for free though, West Ham pay £4 million a year rent and that's taxpayer funded so I shudder to think what a commercial rent for a £100 million+ build is going to be set at
@Voiras1@lady_valor_07 yup I got mine via invite too, they wouldn't take a 4 character username so in my infinite wisdom added another 11 characters instead 🤦🏻♂️
