This is ridiculous. We should be beating teams like Orient comfortably if we want to win the League.

I don't believe we've the depth of squad to win this league. Or even come second, come to that.

I think we'll come 5th or 4th.

Def a good point as our home form is good so another away game out the way - 3 points at home and 1 away = champions - just a shame the other results were so bad :(

Acceptable point methinks, can't win em all, and all the other teams will be thinking that yet again we haven't lost.

So everyone else won...had to happen some time, it's a rare occurrence. Win your home games, draw your away ones = promotion.

PS enjoyed having Johnny Crumplin Football Genius on the radio.

At the end of the day, whether Orient are in form or not we should be taking all 3 points !

Win at home, draw away has always been a guarantee of success. We've drawn away against a team in a run of decent form, kept a clean sheet, and although the five teams below us have all won, we're still top, with games in hand in most cases. What's to worry about? Would you have taken this in August?

Well done lads, 0-0 is alright with Orient in good form. Looking forward to Bristol Rovers now.

I agree with people who say a point at Orient is not a bad result on it's own especially as we don't seem to have played well, but it tightens it up at the top which is just annoying.

Here we go, we have been top for 4 months but one 0-0 draw away from home against a determined and in form team and all the doom and gloom merchants crawl back out of the woodwork.
