Great effort but need to be better at seeing games out. A big ask to defend constantly for 20 (+8!) mins.

Hard to take after a gutsy performance. Fact is in the last few minutes we were totally exhausted, hence we kept giving the ball back to them. In truth after 98 minutes plus a draw was a fair result. No complaints from me, the team fought for their lives, the following was fantastic and a good day to be an Eastleigh fan despite the late goal and wow what a ground Orient have.

A fair result. I thought Callum Howe was tremendous. Zebroski also looked excellent and it was a shame Danny Hollands had that early soft booking because that might have muted his competitive edge a tad. It was another game we would have lost with last season's set up. We are still a bit work in progress and I still think we could win the league. Really. I do think we seemed to sit back too early, though I think it might have been down to losing a bit of grip as legs and minds tired. It's an easy game from the stands as they say.
That Brisbane Road ground is very nice. Those flats with the balconies that are integrated into the corners of the ground must be the dream home for avid O's fans, when they are winning anyway. It's also very convenient for the cosmopolitan environment of Leyton High Street, where I sat before the match with a strong coffee and a Portuguese tart (the confectionery variety) watching the last 20 minutes of Bournemouth v Man City to the backdrop of a Portuguese commentary.

Played well as a team throughout the game, better in the first half, though, and if Ayo's header had gone in rather than hit the post we'd have won it. Not quite positive enough in the second half for me, and I'd have liked to see us just hold on to the ball out wide to kill some time in the time added on period. Rarely did Orient look like scoring until......... Still, we'd have all taken 1-1 before the game. What a superb stadium Orient have, the best NL stadium I've visited, not having been to Tranmere & Wrexham. A proper all seater football ground. All round, a great day out. Thank you, Stewart. (£21 for Orient fans to go to Maidenhead on Monday on the coach.)

A magic result away to a good side, they didn't cause us to many problems. The support was brilliant & the young lads singing was awesome, they kept us all going for the last 20 minutes, a credit to themselves & Eastleigh . Let's try and fill up the shed on Monday, it's not only about the 3pts but being the pride of Hampshire. Also thank you to Stuart for the travel today, so many other clubs are so envious, have a good weekend everyone & see you all on Monday.
