[Football] Orient celebrate promotion on pitch, during game.

[Klaas]

This is a bizarre one!

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

That's really poor form

 

[TomandJerry]

Instant ban for entering pitch during play wasn't it?

 

[Wozza]

The game had been suspended due to floodlight failure.

Looks like celebrations were before the restart, rather than the celebrations stopping the game?

 

[GT49er]

Well done to Ed Turns, who has been a regular starter at the heart of their defence since arriving on loan from us in January.

 

[Bozza]

We can't allow this sort of thing to happen.

20-point deduction should do it.

Chuck them out of the League. Despicable behaviour.

It wasn't during play. Play hadn't been restarted after a blackout.

 

[A1X]

Dock them points IMHO

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

The last 10 minutes being played as a passing exercise is how Villa v Brighton should play if we are both in the Europa and only need to a point each to confirm, especially if it means Spurs miss out completely.

didn't Spurs and Southampton do something similar in the late 70s to stop us going up?

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Yes and I would consider it payback.

 

[Soton Seagull]

Pretty sure Orient (Hearn) were one of the most vocal supporters of having us chucked out of the league all those years ago. Perhaps we should return the favour?!

 

[Simster]

Er, that might have been why he said it.

 

[Silverhatch]

didn't Spurs and Southampton do something similar in the late 70s to stop us going up?

Yep. And led to Mullery’s rallying speech for next season from the directors box.

Exactly, love it, I wonder if Watford O was there.

Confess I have a bit of a weak spot for Orient these days, they were our replacement Palace for a number of years and I quite liked their ground, if not most of the results until MA took over here. MASSIVE Albion support at most games up there.

Chuffed for them

Same!

 

[nicko31]

Really embarassing and disrespectful. Give em a points deduction

I was thinking that! For all his bollocks I do miss ol' Twatty on here. He was so Don.

And yeah, they fulfilled a useful function as our Palace replacement for a few years, but like you I'm pleased for them. Proper club. And incidentally another club with an American owner, but rather like the guys at Wrexham he 'gets' football.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Good luck to them in a higher league, I bear no grudges as they are not our rivals anymore
