    Been the better team hands down. Problem is our bench. Got zero confidence in the bench to turn it round.

    Williams needs taking out of that back 3 immediately. He's just not physical enough to play that position in L1. He's costing us relatively frequently. I'd take Cotter off (I know he's not done much wrong) and put Williams at RWB and give Pines the 2nd half. We're behind anyway.

    Get Williams off at HT. Absolute liability at CB. He's cost us so many points this season.

    Well I have to say, what a fine goalkeeping performance from Brynn.

    Shocking performance from Williams.

    Thought that was a really good performance only undone by Jordan Williams waiting for the ball to bounce. Again.

    If Pines genuinely is a better addition, we've got a decent side.

    Earl is so much better than everyone else on the pitch it's quite comical. Williams is having a disaster of a game, once again it has to be said. 1-0 down and I have a feeling that WAS Barnsley's good half. Oh dear. Orient look really neat and tidy. No frills, just effective.

    Thing is he's quality at RWB where he belongs but the absence of pace in our defence previously meant we had to play him there.

    We no longer have thar problem with Pines and Earl here who are both pacey for centre backs so we can push Williams back to RWB, which is what should happen ASAP.

    The manager need to have the bottle to take his captain out of the firing line, absolute accident waiting to happen… again.

    The other games are going favourably for us, we just need to turn this around.

    This pretty much feels like every Saturday home game I’ve been to this season. Bit lacklustre and losing.

    We’ve got 4 strikers but only 2 that’s any good and unfortunately didn’t add anything different in the window so we’re kinda praying that nowt happens to Cole or MaCatee

    I think we've played reasonably well.. could have had a couple at least.

    Imho...We have played better than the last 3 games at home but our defence is still our Achilles heel, that said Earl again has been excellent.
    They are neat and tidy but the way they set up will give us freedom to play expansive which suits us.
    Our passing has been better and we have plenty of shots....hopefully we can apply ourselves the same but with better accuracy. Their centre back is having a nightmare...and worth working on (I guess they may be saying the same about Williams).
    Nailed on draw still gor me.

    Id have been shocked if we had first brought in any decent striker with Cosgrove and Watters still being here on their wages mate. Cosgrove has shown bits, and he did well for team that won the league last year, so hopefully we can get something out of him for remaining games
