Difficult to have perspective after 4th play-off final loss. This season has been an incredible rollercoaster with fantastic memories but we weren’t at it today. I’m just disappointed that this group who worked so hard to get this far, didn’t do themselves justice. #lofc
This summer will be huge given there will be so many players leaving and returning to their parent clubs. It’s another rebuild but the club now has fresh investment and a real opportunity to build on this season. Interesting few months ahead…#lofc
Taken 11 years to the very day for us to get back to the L1 play-off final…what we’ve been through since had been extraordinary…tears, tragedy, triumph. Now it’s time to go full circle…we hope. #lofc
Sunday is nearly here. I wrote this a couple of years ago about life, death and Orient. This is why it matters so much. It’s so much more than just football. See you Sunday. #lofc

300 mile round trip, home by 3am…but in 37 years of watching Orient, I’ve never known anything like this. It’s just six years since we were in the National League. Now we’re one win away from the Championship. Justin started all of this. Now we hope Richie can finish it. #lofc
Just leaving Stockport…11 years since we made the L1 play off final. So much has happened since then…but nights like this are why we fought so hard to save our club. From Waterlooville to Wembley, Leyton Orient FC. Our club. What a night. One.More.Game. #lofc
3.5 hour drive to Stockport, get to the pub and the Orient chairman Nigel Travis is buying all the drinks for supporters. A promising start to the evening. Club put on free coaches too. This club. #lofc
Yesterday was special. Orient made a mockery of the so-called pressure, no ‘typical Orient’ psyche that so many of us struggle to shake off. As the late Justin Edinburgh always said, “I’m here for the memories.” I think there may still be a few more to be made yet. You O’s. #lofc
Six years ago this week #lofc were playing at Brackley in the FA Trophy. Tonight’s frustrating but remember where we’ve come from and how much we’ve achieved already. Saturday is huge, but we’ve earned the right to be in this position. We’re not done yet…not be a long shot.
We’ve had some wonderful players but Donley has to be the most technically gifted to play for #lofc in my 36 years watching…his ball striking ability in particular is incredible. Look at this finish…
We are not the same Leyton Orient anymore…and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Immense. #lofc
Main takeaway from that first half is that no Currie leaves us in a tight korma…#lofc
I can’t say much about the new investment process at #lofc but I’ve been assured that there is no expectation that @West_Stand_O and I will need to produce a new season of The Circus Upstairs….
There’s a whole new, young, generation of Orient fans that are growing up used to seeing us win regularly and watching us win league titles…and I can’t quite get my head around that…this club is changing…and I’m ok with that. #lofc
Swansea bid £1.5m for him, we turned it down. You can see why…double that and then we might talk. What a player. #lofc
Frame this and put it in a museum. #lofc
