Good to see Ward back among the subs too, wonder if Breckin's absence is paving the way for a parting of the ways next week.
Dale Taylor and Phillips up front is interesting though I'd prefer us to build a side around having Leahy, Scowen and Potts in the centre rather than forcing Leahy into left back.
Key tonight for me is if the team look like they know what they are actually doing (or trying to do).
Can’t see us scoring many goals until we get some confidence (or luck) and with a defence always likely to give a goal up I’d be reasonably happy with a draw - if we can play some decent football along the way.
But great to see Potts back. Interesting that he’s thrown in at the start though after such a long time out
That would assume we're playing a back 4. If Potts is playing, I would guess Bloomfield will use him as the "pivot" we've sorely lacked in his absence that is key for the 3-5-2/5-3-2. If this wasn't already a huge game psychologically, not getting a decent performance (nevermind a result) with what really should be a team that is competing at the sharp end of the table will be another body blow.
Hopefully those present in the away end will sing their hearts out for the lads and really get behind them when they really need us - gutted I've been floored by various xmas plagues doing the rounds and will have to stream on Wanderers TV instead.
Leahy needs more cover than this. Sadlier and the rest of the midfield failing to shuffle over quickly enough when Orient spread it to the right winger.

Or should I have said ‘Great to have chicken Potts pie back.’
Good to see Christie Ward on the bench.
Potts back. Hopefully he's the key to it all and we haven't hyped him to be better the longer he's been out!

You never know, maybe it’s a back 3 with Grimmer and Sadlier wingbacks.
This might be three at the back again. Low, Tafa and Leahy.
Sadlier and Grimmer wing backs.
Potts/Scowen in middle.
Front three of McCleary, Philips and Taylor.
To be fair our best spell was with Leahy as the left centre back and Potts/Scowen in midfield
BBC has it as 4-2-3-1 ...
Orient get a red card and Potts leads us to a 2-0 win.
Everybody forgets last week's two minute's hate and we become a happy family again.
It's as simple as that.
Come on Wycombe .
Looks a decent team selection.... let's wait and see what happens
Boyes is absent - wonder if he has a knock or if he’s just being rested / dropped. Strong side tonight, looking forward to the GMac / Sads show…

Back four? Potts?
Full bank job for any gamblers on here.
This looks a good shout.
As otherwise are we playing Leahy left back? He might have ended up there at times, but not sure we've properly started in a 4 with him?
BBC reported the Blackpool Tower being on fire...
Somewhere tonight Gazza is doing pub karaoke and singing Thin Lizzy's Jailbreak as our goals fly in.

Only seem to be watering one half of the pitch, hope we turn them round if we win the toss.
Queue them doing the other half, spies acting quickly. Who says we've got no influence.
This better be a back 4
If Ward is ahead of Breckin that has to be a sign that he’s done. Feel for him.
Yet another bonkers over use of a minutes silence
Max hoofing it long to a front three of Sadlier, Taylor and McLeary.
Probably better ways for us to play to our strengths…
Phew! Looks like a back four. Bright start. COYB!
I'll take that

Pitch looks horribly bouncy.
What's going on here ? Got my volume down cos of her that must be obeyed while she's watching something else
Change of 4th official, not sure why.
Ahh OK, thanks very much
Pitch isn’t helping Taylor’s hit and miss control ability
