SATURDAY: a few more tickets have now been made available for this one in #Walthamstow.

Hard to imagine a player being known as 'Pomp' now. I'd love to know whether that was common as a nickname, or some sort of shortened version of a first name, or whatever.

Lock this traitor up.

OCTOBER: come and join us, The Wakes etc to celebrate. Details in the TUFAC post.

A sexy email has gone out

Still shocked by Wellens' revelation that some fans are very opinionated even though they understand little about football. Who'd have thought it?

I'd like to see the Numpties recognised officially by #LOFC as a minority supporters group.

I've always loved that story, but I've never seen it corroborated. Kaufman is, er, not one to worry too much about factual accuracy, tbh. But Arthur Wood is a towering figure in #LOFC history - 10 years in goal, captain and even Chair of the PFA for a year.

Anyone not got this album? Today (before 8am Saturday UK time) would be a great day to treat yourself to the very special CD version - see below for details.

To those who accuse us of shamelessly exploiting an animal: you don't know how many biscuits it took to get him to pose like this. If anything, it's the other way around.

The trouble is that all these stories become news stories when it is too late - “in the future everyone will have been against this” - never warning to stop the damage , always reported after the destruction - the little boy only cries wolf when the blood of the flock flows down the hill

I Wrote This Song To Be Sung - Joe Solo, featuring Steve White & The Protest Family. Title is in cut out letters of various fonts, invoking blackmail notes / the punk era. An ink pen scribes notes on a musical stave.

THURSDAY: the video for our collaboration with @joe-solo.bsky.social goes live early in the morning. It's from an album of his collaborations with others, which you can buy in various formats from Bandcamp on Friday. We loved working on this one - it's come out sounding great.

It’s Epstein o’clock for Mandy Epstein o’clock for Lord Pete Epstein o’clock, just like Andy Soon to live on Used-To-Have-A-Title Street It’s Epstein o’clock for Petey Even though he says he didn’t partake It ain’t much of an entreaty When you’re selling the secrets of the state It’s Epstein o’clock for Mandy Hey, Prince of Darkness, it’s Epstein o’clock Soon for a bunch of very rich bastards It’ll be Epstein o’clock Tick, tock

“That’s fine, dude
I ain’t mad at you”
So he thought he’d treat her to
A bullet or two
Maybe the third one killed her
When they denied her medical help
On the day the USA
Turned the gun on itself

He was my favourite player due to his start and end Os - until Ollie arrived, of course. Now it's a tough choice.

I mean, I'm sure that's not all of it. But it's clear Wellens felt his authority was being undermined.

Remember the interview when Wellens said our central defenders couldn't play? Didn't go down well. Beckles was then mildly critical of him in his programme column. Beckles also revealed him and Simpson were organising corners. Pretty soon, he was out of the team, then the squad. Power struggle.

And he's in. Short term contract. Another OO! This is the greatest day in the history of #LOFC.

Sorry, @shitargochants.bsky.social. My mistake. We got the Dylan.

Are you sure he's a real player and not just a Bob Dylan album?

Morrissey?

Rumours linking #LOFC with a loanee keeper: 22 year old Oluwatobiloba "Tobi" Oluwayem of Celtic.

If he plays, he would become the 2nd player in Orient's first team history to have both first and last name starting with O. The only other one is, well, OO7.

Omar was a colossal figure at #LOFC. In 22-23, him and 2 other Os were in the League 2 team of the year because they were the best in their positions by a mile. We might still need someone like him on the pitch as the season goes on. Hope that person is in the squad somewhere.
