    We may be over-complicating this in trying to find some rationale behind the appointment. I though that someone suggested Slade to Tan as an experienced manager who could get everything 'ship shape' - after the mess he allowed novice Ole to create. Slade did get Orient playing some decent football - so maybe in time he can do the same here. It's not looking like this will happen any time soon though.

    Orient played some great football - albeit youtube based evidence. Can Slade do that here - well there is certainly no sign of it.

    Have all the players no respect for him - if you were a premier league player - Kenwyn Jones for example and you had played under some very experienced players - then all of a sudden you get a League 1 manager in - who has not even managed at championship level let alone premier level - and he then starts to give you tactics - that you believe are backward to say the least - is it any wonder that the players think perhaps they are playing for an idiot - who is actually make them look worse!!!

    Slade needs a side of young kids who believe what he says - and a few old pros for the kids to look up to and start playing for each other - he wont get that with this squad

    Not with the squad he inherited but surely that is the squad he is working towards?

    If you based your opinion solely on youtube, you'd probably think that we play some great football

    I think this is a myth based on a youtube video where they string together quite a few passes and score a goal. Its a nice goal but take a look at that video again, the build up to that goal happens very slowly, we are not talking quick pass and move football here. Besides Orient fans said his teams are static, play long balls, 4-4-2, picks the same team again and again, which is exactly what we have seen.
