With #MCFC all up in the news again, why not take another look at "115 things you need to know about Manchester City" which we put together in preparation for our FA Cup tie against them 18 months ago...

Archie The Pub Bore used to say "30 years man and boy" 30? Bloody hell Archie, try 40 because that is how long the never boring (Leyton) Orientear has been going. Read all about it here. footballfanzineculture.blog/2026/09/24/4...

40 Years of the Leyton Orientear.

This weeks blog starts with some pissed up mates in the pub making a list of all the things they’re fed up about. This sounds like a great idea for a sitcom, the start of Men Behaving Badly perhaps…

We were delighted to welcome Britain’s leading historian on football fanzines to our exhibition on Saturday. Here’s the delightful article he wrote about it, which includes new detail we didn’t even know about ourselves! @fanzinefc.bsky.social

It’s a concern that people can get swept along by Gandler’s hubris, so it’s reassuring to see that even those in the other place can see his latest move is gaslighting #LOFC

Os scoring early in the second half - that only ever happens when malingering on the concourse. It’s a real phenomenon.

At what point in this debate about drinking in the stands will the voice of actual fans get heard? It doesn't actually seem to be very popular with the people it most affects.

The Leyton Orientear @leytonorientear.com · 24/09/2026

This drinking in your seat at football thing is a bit weird. A PM who is a genuine football fan advocating a policy that corrects an unfairness, but is actually very unpopular with fans while being popular with some owners. And now official spokespersons are talking it down again.

Yup. We won’t be seeing him again.

Well, we got one more game out of Dovin than we did out of Bachmann, so that’s some kind of progress…

Isaac on Richie: "that's what I liked about him so much: his passion and his directness. He's right up there, and he's still young in coaching terms. He's one of those managers who I think has the capabilities to go right to the top" Our EXCLUSIVE interview with #LOFC skipper here!

With the news that Oli Dovin is unavailable again after making his debut this week, we counted up all the keepers signed by #LOFC since Vigs left... 11 Enough for a full side with ten playing outfield. Maybe they'd have had better luck that way.

Back in the early days of the 'Ear, it was welcomed with suspicion by #LOFC. It couldn't be sold in the ground. When Barry Hearn arrived, he knew that all publicity was good publicity and that it promoted discussion of and interest in the club. I doubt he actually liked it, but he tolerated it.

If you missed this in the programme yesterday well… here it is. Please join us before the match next Saturday in the #LOFC museum for a special exhibition celebrating four decades of the Ear. From 12:30 to 2:30 Free entry, the red door under the “Only One Orient” sign on Brisbane Road

Favourite Wellens quote from today: "we need to improve the atmosphere at the ground". Well, that would require some serious self-reflection from him, from the Club, and from the football industry in general. So don't hold your breath. #LOFC
