Week ending 30th October

[Chief Rocka]

Well done Orient, Do you still live in the town or have moved out and gone soft. Lol

It's called being gracious in defeat, what are you even on about?

 

[Cas]

God I hate Forest Green. Horrible vile tactics yet again, and the worst ref I've seen in many a year fell for all their cheating. Adams once again their number 1 cheat.

I will praise any team that comes and plays football or deserve points that come to Valley Parade, such as Hartlepool recently, but my god Forest Green are a horrible lot.

All that said, we should have been 3 up at half time so only ourselves to blame really.

Well done to the 121 visiting fans that bothered to turn up.

Same after today. Absolutely abysmal way to play the game. A shame because their fans on here a great bunch so I won't go on about it.

Should be winning it though all said and done. Missing chancves again. I really like Cook but he's missing a lot of chances

How dare you. It was 152.

We had a lot of the ball, but were pretty lucky to get a point imo. I wonder if England u16’s shithoused as much as we do when Edwards coached them…

Ebou Adams isn’t popular in Bradford it seems, was involved in the ridiculous incident that led to O’Connor getting sent off at our place last season.

I've just watched the highlights back. There was a man covering for the Sutton incident so I got that wrong. I'd still love to slap the ref tbf.

And yeah, I'd say you were lucky to get a point. I don't think ROD had a save to make all game? Still, we need to be defending better regardless of the ref's shit decision.

Felt sorry for Lavery. Had a good game last week against Swindon and he was having an effect today before succumbing to injury in the first half. Hope he's back soon. Might do well with a run of games.

You and the other FGR fans on here seem a good bunch, I have no problem with your fans at all, but sorry just cannot take to your club at all.

Thought you might have changed after the awful Cooper left you, on today's showing, sadly not

Can we get some unbiased views on their equaliser. Gillead is fouled for me, ref is about to blow then plays advantage to FGR it seems? Wasn't sure myself.

 

[denzel ecfc]

We aren't missing Amond at the moment but if he scores a a hat full in the next few months who knows?! How is he doing? He seems to be making a decent impression off the bench.

He's doing ok, but he won't be scoring hatfuls unless we get injuries to Nombe and Jay. I dont know how he did today but he helped turn the game around against Mansfield. His tweets are always very positive, he seems a lovely chap

 

[shoddycollins]

What's the general perception of 'Lummy' up there? Comes across as an arrogant tosser.

Carlisle fans love him... fans of everyone else hate him. Is he widely seen as arrogant or is it just that he is very partisan? I always assumed that all local commentaries were partisan, being done by fans and former players and some are but last season when we had to listen to a lot of opposition commentaries due to covid I noticed that there are a good few teams here who get depressingly impartial commentators, not impartial in that they are necessarily balanced and unbiased, just impartial in that they sound like they really aren't fussed over which team wins.

It looks like he was gonna give a Bradford freekick, decided it wasn't, glitched out Matrix style and just allowed play to carry on?

One of the FGR lads on here will pass the footage onto a local ref who'll analyse it and find it to their advantage.

 

[BarraMatt]

I thought Devon Lad used to be a top referee, or was it someone else?

 

[Soz]

Christ Tranmere right up there with Port Vale for being shit today, difference is Vale had somebody who took a good free-kick.

Its cheating really, a free kick on the edge of the box is like a penalty when you've got conlon.

Did it again today

Never seems to matter whether it’s a good, bad or indifferent Tranmere team that visits Field Mill, we always put in a sub standard performance there. Abysmal venue for us.

1 1/2 fouls there for me

I think what's just annoying me is that Forest Green were getting freekicks all afternoon for similar stuff.

It should be a freekick but after that if an under 10s defended like that the manager/childminder would be disappointed. Please defend like that in 2 weeks time.

 

[E10rifle]

Didn’t think Pools looked too bad in the first half, but lacked any sort of cutting edge. Second half we absolutely monstered them both physically and technically. Baffled as to where this Orient side has been for the past 6 weeks. Unstoppable at this level if we play like that most games.

Proctor hat-trick.

 

[shoddycollins]

Rumours that James Phillips, our usual commentator on BBCRC has been either suspended or fired, following comments about the board of directors valuing the club too highly. He wasn't commentating today, which is rare but not unheard of, however his twitter profile has also gone.

Bloody hell, must only be putting across the opinions of the supporters?

Aye, give that man a free shot anywhere up to 30 yards out and there is a very good chance it's hitting the back of the net. From that sort of 20 yard range he is almost automatic how he gets it to dip over the wall.

Nice to show we can get a win without Worrall as well which I have to admit was a lingering doubt I did have.

Can't agree, we were abysmal all game. Careless and lacking in desire. Only Luke Hendrie from us gets any sort of credit.

You are clearly a miles better side but we did hand 4 of the 5 on a plate, first one was a fucking great goal. You should be up there this season.

Great win in the end, finished 4-1. Know they were down to 10 men but to blow them away like that second half having trailed is brilliant. Just love the way this team goes about things under DC.

Pleased for Amoo to get on the scoresheet, he has been so unlucky not to get more minutes.

Didn’t he force a great save minutes after from a free kick too? So that’s 4 free kicks in range in the past three games, two goals, one cross bar, one great save.

 

[Chris FGR]

It was strange the ref blatantly played advantage, unless he thought it was a foul/dive or something by Gilliead?

A lot went our way today, and has in quite a few games this season but you make your own luck I suppose. Not a major fan of pressuring refs etc but tbh we aren’t that bad most weeks, and you can’t really complain too much when you’re top of the league and joint top scorers to boot.

Bradford looked a good side, we really struggled with Cook in particular, we don’t have a lot of height at the back without Sweeney and that’s something teams will target, hopefully he’s back soon.

 

[valefan16]

Have been doing a house move so only loosely followed events but finally saw the full highlights.

Great result, really strange form away at Crawley considering our away form usually down the years is crap!

8 wins from 11 league games now and despite worries about the goals and where they’d come from we are joint top scorers and scored 3 or more in 5 of the last 6 matches.

Last year losing Worrall was terminal so pleasing to see we coped today and again made the right changes to turn the game into our favour.

Big game up next in the league live on TV, win it by 2 we will hit top spot. First the cup break though and 1/3 of the way through it looks very positive for us.

Someone else. Devon Loch was a racehorse.

Matt is offside too as he blocks Canavan

 

[Devon_Lad]

Kettle gets his first of the day. By that I mean red card to a Crawley player.

Yems is crying on his interview as per

 

[Devon_Lad]

Definitely someone else if the reference is 'top' I made my credentials clear.

 

[electrode113]

Expect Mansfield now to go on a 15 game winning streak and get promoted automatically just like Bolton last season.

 

[Devon_Lad]

Ok. Other than you not understanding how offside works, wtf is controversial about that?
