We ended up signing him. He’s already injured and possibly needs surgery. Still only one fit striker in the squad.

Think they said 739 Wigan over the tannoy. Total crowd of 8,111.

Pretty much just listed everyone in budget order.

Good shot stopper, quick off his line, great with his feet and fast to distribute if a counter is on offer. Very dodgy on set pieces, though. Gets caught underneath the ball way too often.

Back home at the club he loves. Wellens will have him purring. Pretty sure he’s equally delighted not to have ended up in Luton.

I literally can’t recall ever seeing him play tbh. Think he’s the tallest CM I’ve ever seen us have so I assumed he could mix it up a bit. We’ve been after him since Wellens arrived at the club apparently.

Tyreeq Bakinson comes in from Wycombe for a small fee. Assume he’s going to kick people a lot. Seems like the PE teacher in Bucks didn’t fancy him, but I imagine he’ll be pretty vital for us.

Aaron Connolly signs on a two year deal. Undoubtedly talented but with well-publicised issues. Risky signing, but if anyone can get him back loving the game and making an impact it’s Richie Wellens. Jordan Brown on his way to Blackpool for £400,000, so that’s another one we need to replace.

Ethan Galbraith sold to Swansea in a club record sale believed to be upwards of £2,000,000. Michael Craig brought in from Reading to play that inverted fullback role. Idris El Mizouni back for a club record fee (previously £300,000 for Liam Kelly) on a three year deal. Busy old day.

He’s fine at attacking crosses with his head. No good at winning headers as a target man vs. CBs. Have to play it into his feet if you want him to hold it up.

Holy shitballs, my post went through. Is this site alive again?

Don’t move Vic on - keep him and sign Josh Koroma as well. Then with Dalby as well you can have Orient’s 2017 youth team strike force in its entirety. Dalby isn’t a lump. He’s 6ft but weak as piss in the air. No pace either. Use him as a 9 and he’ll be appalling. He’s a tall 10. Plays like a...

Not really blown it. Just leaking goals with a reserve defence. We’ve no right to be involved at this end of the table with our budget, so, short of losing every game until the end of the season, we’re still heavily in the realms of over-achievement.

Under 8,000 at Reading?! Christ. Are they boycotting yet?

Proper pony result for us tonight. Rotherham were absolute wank but our finishing was woeful and having a complete reserve defence cost us from a set piece yet again. Playoffs hanging by a thread at the moment. Happy fucking birthday to me.
