Southend United v Tinpot Orient

[Trigger]

I thought i'd make a thread especially for Twatty about the build-up to Tinpot Orients biggest game of the season against local rivals Southend United.

Team News...

Southend boss Steve Wignall is awaiting news on Leon Cort, Mark Warren, Leke Odunsi and Jay Smith ahead of the game with Leyton Orient.

Cort, Warren and Smith suffered knocks against Kidderminster last weekend, while Odunsi has missed the last two games.

Michael Husbands made his first appearance after two months on the sidelines with a medial knee ligament injury against Rovers and could play a part.

Leyton Orient caretaker manager Martin Ling has reacted to the crushing LDV Vans Trophy defeat at Dagenham by making two loan signings.

Dean Hammond arrives from Brighton while Shaun Cooper comes in from Portsmouth.

Ciaran Toner (ankle), Justin Miller (hamstring), Matthew Joseph (ligaments) and Simon Downer (groin) are all missing.

Predictions?

I'll go for Southend United 3-1 Tinpot Orient

 

[CHAPPERS]

Does it even matter who Southend put out, they'll win anyway?

 

[sherriffbart]

didn't Dagenham rest 5 players for the orient game cos they have a cup game this weekend?

If so that makes the Orient result even more hilarious


Prediction 0-0

Yes, they rested 5 players coz they only played a league game 48 hours earlier...

[WATFORD O]

Orient will win. If you prefer sarfend burberry wearing, xr3i driving (yes still), scum to us then that says a lot.....

 

[Trigger]

I prefer Southend, it's where my grandad spent the last years of his life...

Still Orient might do ok now they have a Brighton player amongst the ranks.

 

[WATFORD O]

sarfend are essex sub human scum....however, in a game with celitc I'd still pick sarfend......

 

[berkshire seagull]
