Charlton did the double over them in the season (league games) but I've not seen any of League 1 so not a clue who wins it.

Orient for me, for no other reason than Daniel Agyei plays for them (ex Claret) albeit briefly.

I’ve a bit of a soft spot for both these after the 1987 & 2016 games against them, but with Dan Agyei playing I’m hoping for Leyton Orient win.

Charlton for me.

Can't stand Richie Bellend, Mattie Godden was good at Stevenage and a former colleague provided tickets for 3 of us on the title winning day at the Valley un SD.

Lastly their fans are less annoying than Orient's!

Keeper should be saving that, wasn't even a high shot & he was way to far over to his right @ the start. :roll:

The Smiths split up but I don't see the connection tbh.

Not interesting at all but just noticed the 2 teams yesterday and the 2 teams today all have red and white home shirts. And Walsall tomorrow also play in red at home.

Charlton & Leyton Orient have played each other three times already this season. Five of the six goals in those games have come in stoppage time.

I was in the Charlton end in 2016 when we won the championship. Me and my Dad got roped into holding a massive we want Roland out banner up!
My neighbour is an O’s fan so I’d love to see them get back in it.

I’ve just got back home and watching the end of the game. All I can see is NJ walking down the steps, cup in hand, his players 20yards behind him. He marched onto the field and held the cup up for the crowd. The players hadn’t even made it onto the pitch!! Take it he’s taking sole credit for the win then?

When Nathan Jones was appointed Charlton were towards the bottom end of League One but he steadied the ship ending up with promotion to the Championship this season. Not everybody’s cup of tea but he proved during his time with Luton that he is a very capable manager at this level so it will be interesting to see how far he can take them.

He's a Graham Westley kind of figure. As long as he's central to everything at a club and everybody buys into his philosophy it can work.

How he comes across as a person is something different.
