never fall in love with a loan player :'(

As one door closes another one opens.

We now have a loan space available to us. Could Blackburn soften the blow by allowing McFadzean to come to us on a favourable deal?

I liked Markanday a lot but felt having him, Dobra and Drummond playing together made us very lightweight. We have just gained a more robust player in Pepple and it showed against Rotherham. If someone like McFadzean came in it would allow Naylor to move into midfield thus strengthening 2 positions with just one signing. Bringing Naylor into midfield allows Mandeville to move to the right of our three.

It seems to me that Grigg is going to be out for a little time yet and because of that I still think we need another robust striker to supplement the squad should Pepple become unavailable for whatever reason. An U21 player such as Brown would be ideal as he can also operate from wide too.

Please no more talk about Drummond playing regularly on the right

Blackburn couldn't give a monkeys about giving us a favourable deal.

They owe us nowt. It's business. If they're letting him come here it's for their own benefit in having part of his wages covered.

He?s under contract isn?t he?

You can?t simply get rid

Always baffled when clowns say 'get rid'

Top player Markanday, but Orient are a pool of utter scum so don?t wish them well one bit. Never forget 2000-2001, nasty horrible club along with Brighton

[ronpowellsbutler]

I have nothing against Leyton Orient and wish DM well.
The one thing I would say is that I have visited tons of grounds over 60 years and have that area at the top of my list of depressing places.
I hope he notices the difference.

That?s the spirit!
I think you?ll find all clubs have changed in 25 years.
It was us that was the ?utter scum? back then- well, owned by one who was subsequently sent to the big house.

If Berry is only returning to training today you'd think he's unlikely to be a starter at the weekend. Will he move Mandeville to the right?

Is that right? I thought it was just a case that he's fit but just not trained properly due to the frozen ground and they decided to give him a bit more time on the grass. Trouble is injury info is so garbled or contradictory at times it is hard to keep up. If he has just started to train you are probably correct although he hasn't been out that long. oHwever it will likely be Hobson again, or perhaps Drummond.

So you justify the abuse they dished to to fans of ours? Spitting, throwing stuff etc. they are utter scumbags. These along with Brighton can go bust in my book.

It is only a matter of time before someone brings up Barry Hearn and their antics 25 years ago

I am entitled to my opinion. And I got give a **** what you think

[gordon_brittas]

I?ve come across some top fans in my time supporting the club, Watford, Luton, Maidenhead, Chelsea, Sadly Orient, Brighton, Cardiff are the absolute dregs of society
