leyton Orient have spent only one season in the top flight of English football, in 1962–63. Though they were immediately relegated, they had three memorable victories within the space of twelve days against local rivals West Ham, eventual champions Everton, and Manchester United. In August 1974, they were Manchester United's first opposition in the latter's only post-war Second Division campaign. In 1978, Orient reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup for the only time in their history, under the management of Jimmy Bloomfield. Between October 1993 and September 1995, Orient did not win a single away game in the league. This terrible run of form saw them finish bottom of Division Two in 1994–95.

After the Shock sacking of Geriant Williams due to the fact he wasn't happy with this season transfer budget the board had to act quickly and appoint Johnathan Trotman a young manager with no experience.

Johnathan Trotman has said in a press conference that he will do all he can for the club and hopes he gets enough time and money to take the club to the next level he also hinted that he will achieve promotion to the coca cola championship within 3 seasons.

Any advice will be great guys hope u enjoy the story
 
u can still do it mate doesnt bother me good luck if u do i will follow.

I will be doin updates later just about to start a poker match so cant atm
 
I think you can do it, get some good free players in and can be done, i got Carlisle there in one season
 
July Update

After my 1st month in charge i have realised how hard of a job ive got on my hands with the club up for sale the current chairmen has given us only 100k for transfer funds and a wage budget which ive already exceeded by 3k. We have bought in some loan players which have already played and this level and freebies which are highly rated for the league.

In a press conference Johnathan Trotman has been quoted saying that there will be alot of work needed to be done over the season before even attempting to challenge for the title or the playoffs which is why i have set my personal goal at finishing mid table. The rumors are also a load of rubbish that the club is struggling financially which is why the club is up for sale and before you ask it isnt affecting the players.

here are some screenshots!!!!

August Update

View attachment 51636 2-0 Leyton League 1

first half was horrific was like a car crash on the pitch there was more gel in 50ml sample tube than the whole of my team. The second half didnt get any better with the team eventually loosing 2-0 hopefully better results will follow. Also some more activity in the transfer market will be needed.

View attachment 51637 4-0 Leyton Carling Cup 1st round

After 2 minutes 1 down great start!! Bristol domintion just carried on throughout the game. I wasnt expecting anything out the game just wish it finished abit closer. It was men against boys!!!!
The next two home games are vital if we want to start our season next stop home against Oldham.

Leyton 2-2 View attachment 51638 League 1

Still not a good start 2-0 down before half time. Got a early goal from Adam Chambers in the 2nd half which set up a tasty final 40 mins where anything could of happened...All 3 of my subs were used on the 60 mins mark and all the pressure was on the Oldham defense and.... we get a equalliser on 73 minutes from O'Halloron who later got sent off on 90 mins what a debut!!!! Got a point of a game which we dominated but caught twice on the break early in the first half.

Leyton 3-0 View attachment 51639 League 1

Brillaint start 1 nil up after 20 mins from scott mcgleish after a shaky start from the Charlton defence which soon turned into 3-0 before half time with a 2nd form mcglesih and his first goal for leyton jermain wright the 2nd half was a bit boring but still 3points and a clean sheet against a top side in the league had our season finally begun??

View attachment 51640 0-2 Leyton League 1

Again a quick start from Leyton 1 up after 74 seconds from a superb jermaine wright strike from the edge of the area,which quickly got doubled when sanchez watt counter attack from a yeovil free kick resulting in his first goal of the season.With Leyton 2-0 up at half time surely they cant be caught...Yeovil were pressing throughout the 2nd half and will feel hard done by with a penelty not being given on 72 mins was that the turning the point in the game? Leyton finishing the game 2-0 and another 3 points in the bag early stages in the season but were leyton goin to be a side pushing for playoffs.

Leyton 2-0 View attachment 51641 League 1

Wish the 1st half going with the home side and nothing to show for it were they going to rue there missed chances in the second half? The deadlock was finally broken in the 743rd minute from jimmy smith with his first goal of the season and he then doubled his tally for the game and guaranteed the points for leyton on the 86th minute. The points goin to better side and carlise have nothing to moan about as they didnt deserve anything from the game.

In a press conference at the end of the game Johnathan Trotman has played down talks that if his side carry on playing in this form they can make the playoffs he has also given praise to the back four after the start of season they had conceding 6 goals in two games then going the last 4 only conceding two and he says its all the hard work the team have put in training.

September update:

Start of the month was where Stephen Dawson finally took full control of club for a reported 2.2 million and insisted that no money was going to be available for manager Johnathan Trotman, which left a bitter taste in his mouth. Straight away Johnathan trotman put his thoughts to the weekends clash against fierce rivals Southend where both sides will be going out to win the match.

View attachment 51709 2-2 leyton Orient League 1

With both sides attacking it seemed that there would be loads of goals and when Southend took the lead on 26 minutes it was whether they could hang out which lasted 5 mins before tehoue scored a close range header. With the 2nd half starting both sides were trying to gain the initiative by getting the next goal which fell to Leyton Orient which were quickly pegged back by a stunning free kick from Johnny Herd, with minutes to go the game looked to have finished 2-2 but Leyton Orient were awarded a late penalty which Nathan Tyson stepped up to take and sent the ball into orbit. The game finished 2-2 and neither side has the bragging rights.

Leyton Orient 3-1View attachment 51710 League 1

with the home side doing all the pressing and the attacking but creating nothing it was just going to be a matter of time before exeter made them pay which cam just before half time so at the break it was 1-0 exeter was leyton Orient able to do something about it? With the leyton Orient manager using all his subs up by the 55th minute its shows that he is prepared to make rash decisions which soon paid off in the 70th minute where scott mcgleish managed to get the equaliser, The game finally turned upside down with Leyton orient getting a 2nd and a 3rd goal all scored by Mcgleish new super sub. Tis result surely would of knocked Exeter of the top spot?

View attachment 51708 1-2 Leyton Orient League 1

The game starting scrappy with neither side able to hang onto the ball and were making mistakes. Leyton Orient soon capitalised on a stockport mistake with Sean Thornton scoring his 1st goal of the season. Tehoue soon doubled Leyton orients lead on 41 minutes with a brilliant turn on the edge of the box to slam the ball past the goalkeeper. With Leyton Orient 2-0 up at half time surely another 3 points for a side with two massive games coming up against Millwall and Norwich. Tehoue almost got his 2nd of the game straight of the kick off with magic down the left hand side from skelton to knock it to edge of the box with the keeper beaten the only thing stopping it was the crossbar which will be rattling for weeks .With Leyton Orient dominating the game a soft own goal by goalkeeper Jamie jones made the away side have to hold on for the last 10 mins of the game final score Leyton Orient winning 2-1.


The rest of month will be done later!!!!!

September Update continued:

Leyton Orient 2-2 View attachment 51813 League 1 Tehoue,Thorton

What a strat for Leyton Orient against Millwall 1 up after just 50 secs from a magnificent chip by Tehoue. A long time left now for leyton orient to hold can they do it? Millwall equalise on 24 mins from a stroke of luck by Neil Harris. first half over and Millwall are hanging on by the skin of their teeth will leyton orient doin all the pressing and attacking. Second half started like the first Leyton Orient re taking the lead with a gola from midfielder Sean Thornton on 55 mins. Lee Martin get a late equaliser on 85 mins minutes after an error from the leyton Orient defence. Game finished 2-2

View attachment 51812 2-2 Leyton Orient League 1 Daniels,Thorton

With not much between the sides in the first its norwich which are creating chances but are only long range efforts, but leyton Orient look more promising but just havent got the final pass this game could go either way. Norwich manage to break the deadlock on 54 mins with a tap in my grant holt, you can see the disgust on Johnathan Trotmans face he knows the defence should of done better then. Norwich double there lead on 70 mins through the same man. charlie Daniels pull one back for the away side with 10 mins to go surely leyton Orient cant pick up an away point? With Minutes to go Sean thorton equalise with a hit and hope shot which secure Leyton orient a valuable point.

After this month im happy with the teams performances just wish we would finish more chances and kill the games off sooner, still im not complaining just hope to have similar results next months.
