Leyton Orient are close to completing the signing of striker George Alexander from Eastbourne Borough on a two year deal. The former Bromley striker scored 24 goals in 40 league games for Eastbourne last season and has been subject of major EFL interest. #lofc #eastbourne

We are saddened to hear that former @leytonorientfc player Mark Lazarus is gravely ill in hospital. Our thoughts with his family at this time.
Tbf Forest Green Rovers deserve to start the season on minus 45 points for even daring to consider this abomination of a kit, let alone choose it !

Kick Off delayed @BarnetFC . A reminder that raindrops hitting you can be very dangerous indeed, especially if you are playing or watching football. Please be careful and wear a tin hat and protective clothing .
