Team news to follow

The first of a revenge double header today. Strange how we're playing both Orient and Salford so soon after we knocked them out of the FA Cup, and in the order we played them. Hopefully Haynes will be fit, but if not maybe it'll give Baker another chance to shine at Brisbane Road, with Shephard moving to left wing back.

IMO Robbie can play right wing, left wing or even as a no. 10, but he can't defend.

Happy to kick off.
Never in a million years is he a defender.
Another problem he plays on the right.

I’m looking forward to seeing the team sheet today. I normally don’t think about it beforehand. I wonder if he will be tempted to rest players if they have any niggling little injuries given our league position. It would be just superb if we could go in to 2021 top of the league. Not sure if going in to the New Year top of the league has ever happened before in our history. Statto’s - any ideas. I bet Reebok will know.

Not sure of the stats but I reckon we have played slightly more games than the other teams around us so MF may be tempted. I hope he goes full strength given that 3 of our best players may not be with us come January. Confident today, in any case. Cmon the County.

I’d assumed that with C*rdiff C*ty playing Sw*nsea C*ty in the early kickoff, BBC Radio Wales would carry commentary of our 3pm match at least on FM or MW, but seemingly they’re opting to cover the wugby across all wavelengths. What a pity, and what a missed opportunity for the club to get some coverage.

Orient have won three of their last four matches and lie 9th in the table. So a draw would be a good result away from home. There will be a crowd of up to 2,000 present today which is very welcome.

Would be my option.

Gone for a draw today, will be interesting to see how we react to playing in front of fans for the first time this season, happy to be corrected, but is it only home team fans allowed at the moment, any one know any different please.

Yes probably mine too unless Flynn likes the look of Longe-King at CB and MickeyD on the left

Micky D got to play. I hope Matt does but in the last game he was nearly cruelly exposed for lack of pace at the half way line. Rescued by MD. hope he doesn’t change the back line.

Cardiff 0 Swansea 1 after 6 min`s

He played on the left in his first spell with us and can use either foot very well. I think his best position is wing back

Does MF know your posting on here Robbie ???

No he doesn't know I'm posting on here. You won't tell will you Neil

No I wont , but I have never heard of a player pleading for a starting spot on a message board before
