NORTHAMPTON TOWN- LEYTON ORIENT


I was listening to a radio phone in the other evening, before anyone passes comment, yes, I do indeed lead a very sad life.

Anyway, back to the story, there was a Northampton supporter on, who had not missed a Town match of any sort, home or away, for 15 years or so, over 800 consecutive games and you thought my life was sad! He was of the opinion, that their most recent performances were the worst he could remember and that boss John Gorman, was clueless !

When guys like this, who normally view their team through rose tinted glasses, complain publicly, it is time to take notice.

Town have the worse home record in the division, just one win, five goals and six points, in ten starts. They have only scored once in the last four matches and have some quite severe injury problems tonight, especially in central defence, which I always feel is important, as the spine of the team.

They meet a Leyton Orient team who must feel very pleased with theirselves, after winning at Nottm Forest at the weekend, their second win in a row. A point tonight will take them out of the relegation zone for the first time in months, it is a massive incentive and Martin Ling's side travel with no new injury concerns and unchanged from Saturday.

4 points Leyton Orient +1/2 ball asian line 1.76.

Good Luck.
