It's been a very emotional two days and his death has been such a shock.

His achievements and impact on the club will never be forgotten.

RIP Gaffer

RIP Joe.

Two former Orient players that have died in five days now - neither reached the age of 50.

The game was also marked the debut for Orient's youngest ever player, Pau ...

Hi everyone,

I am after team photos of London teams pre-1900.

I don't want to use /re-produce them, but I am trying to find which is the oldest one.

Thanks everyone,

A very good thread and topic to discuss. As a very young collector, 14, I think I can shed a bit of light on the subject.

Personally, going to a game and not getting a programme is like playing sno ...

I’m 27
Rarely meet anyone of my generation with an interest in buying a programme when at the match. As for collecting, I doubt it.

I thought I may sneak the youngest at 32.
