Match Day Thread : Leyton Orient

I hate when Scowen pushes high as an attacking midfielder, love the guy but he just isn’t up to it in terms of pace or shooting, surely the other central midfielders should be going higher.

Definitely something that’s been noticeable in games we’ve struggled. Ball worked around reasonably well, reaches Grimmer who misplaces a 10 yard pass to disrupt any momentum. (Or shoots from 45 yards today apparently…)

What a ball from Lowry!

You don’t need to worry any longer.

Nothing controlled about this game. Scrappy bits of play, nervy, heavy touches, slashed shots, anything could decide it. Lovely to be in this position though, rather than a dead rubber or relegation scrap.

Getting into it a bit now. Looking more dangerous.

I love the guy, great servant of the club but he just doesn’t suit the system. We’ve evolved above players of his style which feels incredibly harsh to say to our captain.

Lowry is simply a delight to watch - feels like every touch he has something up his sleeve

We are at least competitive, not much else yet.

110% this. And it’s a shame to say it.

What happened to Pattenden? Is he injured or just out of favour?

Are we just going to let them sling balls into the box for the entire game?

Is this half carrying on until someone scores?

Ahhhhhhhhhh too slow Rich. Nearly though, nearly…

If our centre halves play as they should it’s something I’m comfortable with.

They shouldn’t be winning much against Bradley and Taylor.

I know it should go without saying but if we get a single clear chance at goal we absolutely have to take it. Feels like a certain 1-0 game.

Better, but only just.

This ref is a disgrace , the worse i have seen , he needs investigating as looks.like he took a bung

Blood and thunder stuff. Ref has let a couple go, hasn’t he? We’re putting a shift in, need something to fall for us or show more quality on the ball.

How much are you willing to bet that Wrexham get a helping hand today?
