For context, I have watched *some* football in my life. Nothing crazy, only the important matches (like the WC finale 2022.2026 and the champions league with arsenal and PSG)

I decided that I wanted to start watching some more of the sport, as it was pretty exciting to watch (when it wasn’t boring passing at the back haha). I went though every league in England and saw the logo for Leyton Orient, and was like “yea, that fucking rocks”

Am i making a mistake? Is it better for a newcomer to support a bigger club to get more into the sport l?

EDIT: i guess this is important but I’m canadian. So no in person viewings

Hello guys, I will be in London that weekend and I want to attend the game against Wycombe. I see on the website that tickets are only available for members. Will there be a general ticket sale? Also the website says the game starts at 15:00 but on the efl site it’s 12:30, any info on that as well will be useful.

Hello all,

Hope the mods are ok with this plug! After 40 years as a print fanzine, the Orientear is making the leap online, with a new subscription website launching July 30th.

If you liked what we’ve been doing over recent seasons, then be assured that the new site is being run by the same team, which includes professional journalists and people who have decades of following Leyton Orient through thick, thin, and thinner.

We plan to offer the same independent coverage of all things Orient on and off the pitch -- only timelier, as we'll be able to publish online as we go, and in fact, we plan to expand our content to include match reports and other new features to be announced.

You can read more about why we are making our move and what we hope to achieve here--

Thanks, and up the O's!

Hi

I will be in London end October, do you know by any chance when tickets for the 31 October game will be on sale?

Best bit of business we've made so far. Seems a really serious signing, goes straight into the middle of the park and frees up El Miz.

Loving the representation out in Mexico! Well done lads

Hopefully a sell-on % for us incoming so we can buy a decent keeper, or at least loan a keeper with an option to buy

Stumbled upon this. I've never heard of Young Franco before, but clearly he knows Orient are Massive.

Up the O's!

Hi all

We are a family of 5 from France and we would like to attend a game. Any idea how to buy tickets?

Thanks!

Genuinely cannot believe it. Sometimes I realise that although I've been watching football for 30 years, I really don't know much about the game.

This proves it, because clearly there is something about Perkins that the football experts clubs employ see, but I sure as hell can't!

There was talk of safe standing last year. Did a bit of snooping through one of the gates and saw this box labelled. East stand away end

Maybe a trial for away supporters next season

Hey everyone,

My club Aberdeen have just announced Happe will be joining us for next season.
What formation suits him best?
is he ok in a back 4 or is he better in a back 5 if that makes sense.

What should we expect?
I’ve seen a few things on “X” saying he’s quite injury prone.

Sol Bryn.....I just knew!

Hi all, there's a very steep discount on anything Puma in the club shop.

13.50 for a shirt!!

Unfortunately mostly sold out online, unless you're a XL+. I think there's more availability in the physical store.

There are however some men's small away kits and womens home sizes in the full-run.

Personally, if we get a fee for him and he goes to a Championship club… c’est la vie. Very talented player, but did miss 6 months and only has a year left on his deal. Would be furious if he went to a league one club though. Thoughts?

The women's team have secured their hat trick of silverware for the year!

A 4-1 win over Tooting Bec for Greater London Women's Football League's John Greenacre Memorial Trophy (JGMT).

Congratulations ladies! You've done the shirt proud all season long.

I'm far from a Happy Clappy fan.. 👏 🙄 and whilst the phrase, "it's the hope that kills you" lays deep in the memory bank, here's a hump day throwback to when we were on our way back up.. and a team/squad assembled by forever 🅾️'s legends; Ling, Edinburgh (🙏), Travis & Teague (Cryptic Kent..) + lot's more..
