The winding up petition has been dismissed now, but it still sounds absolutely desperate...

Adam Michaelson, legal advisor to LOFT, said: "We're not in a position to say what is going on. The communication we've had is absolutely zero.
"All we know is what we can see, which is nine junior professionals, no seniors, no access to a training ground, no shirts, no training tops, and they're due back in pre-season in the first week of July."
someone slept with Francesco Becchetti's wife, daughter & son in a 4 way and he was an Orient fan, that's all I can think of why he'd be so vindictive. It must cost him surely as local planning won't want to sanction a stadium demolition / conversation into flats for a few years until the resentment has subsided.
Massive piss upI wonder what the fans trust will do with all the money they've raised now?
They've re-signed David Mooney, who was a very good player for them.
Good experienced striker that will hopefully get them some goals.
Plus signed Joe Widdowson (who I admit I've not heard of) - a left-back from Dagenham & Redbridge.
Released following clarification re: their squad too.

A very small list but at least they have some players to build on.
@Rocksuperstar it sounds like he really is a fan.:

"The bond to Orient now spans four generations of his family, from his mother and father to his children and grandson, and he mentions how the club honoured his father with the Roland Travis commemorative clock, which is located in the executive suite at Brisbane Road. “My dad was coming here until he was 90,” Travis says."
