With Crawley v Charlton postponed at least we can’t slip into the bottom four - regardless of today’s result.
Just as well Bluebaldee 10 minute Galbraith scores for Orient Rovers 0 - 1 Orient Daniel said should have been 1 - 0 Rovers but Keeley saved they counter attack we dont defend well and we are behind AGAIN though there was a clear foul on Moore and the shot was deflected Lovely comment from Daniel Hargraves, who says Calderon has the dress sense of Klopp lets hope he has his management capabilities 16th minute Sousa goes past three defenders but his cross is cut out by Keeley 18th minute Agyei down injured for the second time and is taking his time in coming off the pitch, is replaced by Kelman 20th minute Omochere is down and is coming off, a massive loss the way he has played so far 22nd minute Martin replaces Omochere 27th minute Sousa wins a corner for Rovers from which Sotiriou tried a shot and won another corner a touch from Wilson resulted in Taylor having a shot saved
30th minute Thomas tripped in the area penalty Rovers, Keeley complained and received a yellow card for his trouble, and Martin scored from the penalty Rovers 1 - 1 Orient, Martins first goal of the season A good run from Ward who released Thomas which lead to the penalty 2 minutes later Hutchinson hits the side netting Rovers appear to be playing some good football today 38th minute Another bad decision against Rovers Sotiriou wins the tackle, the ref gives Orient a free kick and Yellow cards Sotiriou and Donley scores from the resulting free kick Rovers 1 - 2 Orient
We seem at this moment in time to be getting the rough edge of the official decisions, 2 offside in the other game last week and 2 disallowed penalties,1 off side reckoned to be correct Shouldn't have let him go on loan or Jed Ward who he scored against 43rd minute Calderon yellow carded after a foul on Ward was let go 7 minutes extra time to be played 15.48 Sotiriou down injured Dont know if Sotiriou is injured or playing on Daniel hasn't said HT Rovers 1 - 2 Orient Looks like we can beat orient but not the ref and Orient
O'Niell on for Jayiesimi who had been yellow carded and then fouled Ward and should have received a second yellow / red and been sent off, if thats why Calderon was yellow carded I think it is understandable 54th minute Kelman scores for Orient Rovers 1 - 3 Orient. League 2 here we come 58th minute Thomas effort on goal is blocked, legal challenge by Taylor gets him yellow carded The only time I have seen Martins name mentioned was when he took the ball off Thomas to take the penalty, he really needs to put some effort into the game or get off, we cannot afford to carry passengers 61st minute McCormick and Forde on Sousa and Sotiriou off 66th minute Griffiths saves from O'Neill 68th minute Another save from Griffiths Rovers seem to have lost all confidence and will to win the game as Orient push for a 4th goal
70th minute Kelman shoots straight at Griffiths Daniel says should have been four, Gasheads making their feelings known and showing their frustrations Hutchinson and Taylor off Sinlair and on 74th minute Martin gets his and Rovers 2nd Rovers 2 - 3 Orient Happe blatantly pulls back Sinclair as he races towards goal yellow card only fans want red
I wish these players would play for the shirt or for personal pride - they’re doing neither at the moment.
80th minute Forde hits one over the bar, supporters starting to believe again 84th minute Brown down injured after Griffiths tumbled into him making a clearance free kick or penalty I wonder to be given According to Sky play has resumed and Orient have a corner about the 87th minute 90+1, 6 minutes extra time to be played doesn't seem much for all the substitutions and injuries 16.55 corner to Rovers, O'Donkor bundles the ball over the line handball given possibly a correct decision Seniors cross headed over via a deflection corner Rovers, could be the last kick of the match free kick taken quickly and Forde fires straight at Keeley FT Rovers 2 - 3 Orient The board have got to find him some money quickly, we need defenders who can defend , midfielders who can create and strikers who can put the ball in the net. Calderon is going to find winning games with this squad very difficult and we don't have any breathing space, we have got to start winning VERY SOON or it will be to late. we were tipped on a site yesterday to be one of the four relegated
He is going to need far more than luck, I am hoping that the manager of Brighton has a couple of quality players he would be prepared to lend us and help Calderon out in his first management position
Todays line up v Cambridge Griffiths, Sousa, Moore, Wilson, Sinclair, Ward, Sotiriou, Thomas, Taylor, Martin, Lindsay. Subs Hall, Senior, Hutchinson, McCormick, O'Donkor, Bilongo, Forde 3 changes from the last match, in come Sinclair, Lindsay and Martin, out Omochere (inj), Hutchinson and O'Donkor, and Mola dropped from the squad Ferguson the Brighton striker is being made available for loan, has premier league experience wonder if Calde can use his contacts there Kick off has happened 2nd minute Lindsay scuffs a shot on target after good work by Thomas 3rd minute Thomas fouled just outside the D which Martin puts well over the bar. Martin being Jeered by the home fans possibly due to the fact he played for Norwich
8th minute Rovers Corner won of a Martin Cross which was deflected out. the resulting corner found no one wearing green and Josh Stokes the Bristol City loanee breaks away and is dragged down earning Ward a yellow card, the resulting freekick clears everybody in the box and goes out of play 14th minute Sinclair opts to shoot rather than crossing the ball and it goes well over the bar 15th minute Connor Taylor down and getting treatment but is OK just waiting to get back on the pitch 18th minute Save from Griffiths results in a corner to Cambridge from which Rovers get a foul in the area and a chance to clear their lines 25th minute A cross by Sinclair is turned into the net by Thomas Cambridge 0 - 1 Rovers 31st minute N'Lundulu fires over the bar after Rovers gave the ball away cheaply 35th minute corner to Cambridge 36th minute Ref is having problems with his wearable technology players having a drinks break interesting comment by the Orient manager, he reckons that if Ward had gone to ground when his shirt was pulled his player would have been sent off and that was why he subbed him at HT
41st minute match restarted 43rd minute Sotirou and Lindsay both miss an opportunity to at least make their keeper work 45th minute Stokes puts one over the bar ref gives a corner Rovers players protest 13.15 Cambridge calling for an FA qualified official, fourth official has now replaced the ref still loking for a fourth official. 45+3 Stokes curled one over the bar no added time given 45+5 Korey Smith yellow carded for a cynical foul on Thomas Apparently 8 minutes of extra time to be played 45+8 Sotiriou yellow carded went down with a head injury this has now been corrected Morrison the Cambridge captain tried to lift him by the shirt which objected to Morrison also yellow carded HT Cambridge 0- 1 Rovers
Second half restarted no substitutions 46th minute Griffiths forced into a save 47th minute Thomas down injured medical staff looks to be OK awaiting permission to re enter the game52nd minute Thomas cross to the back post and Sotiriou fails to get a touch 54th minute Great cross by Stokes and no one from Cambridge gets on the end of it 56th minute Stoke puts one into the side netting, think the inter City / Rovers rivalry is happening here 58th minute Sotirou and Thomas off Hutchinson and O'Donkor on
I’m worried about us sitting back and trying to protect a 1-0 lead. That’s not worked well for us this season.
63rdminute Kachunga blasts well wide 64th minute N'Lundulu off injured and is replaced by Ryan Loft 65th minute Longelo on Brophy off
