.....a lot of Orient fans however have a great deal of good to say about the fella.

Even the likes of Clough, Busby, Paisley, et al all have early dips in their respective careers. Our new man, had a couple of great seasons at Orient, a couple of sh1te ones at Cambridge.......and now we shall see which way it will go at the famous Gulls.

A gamble I agree.

Fear I, 4-1 CANNOT agree with this.

Finding myself (thankfully briefly) the wrong side of Hadrian's Wall for a few days on work duty I cannot believe the adulation being given up here to the sulky, spoilt little Caledonian gob-sh!te. Surprised Holyrood haven't actually declared a f*cking public holiday to celebrate their "hero" winning a minor ENGLISH tennis tournament.

Still, when he (predictably) gets well d*cked at Milton Keynes next week and (equally predictably) t*sses his dollies out of the pram again*, I'm sure normal equilibrium will be restored.

*Actually, just realised why you probably have "fellow feeling" with him here, Jerky
