Ollie O'Neill M Leyton Orient b.2003

[JR89]

Signs a two and a half year deal as he joins the League One side. Having a good season are the Os as they find themselves 9th in L1 after promotion as champions last season.

Hopefully can pick up some minutes between now and the summer. Never got any chances at Fulham even though he consistently performed at U21 level for them.

I cannot understand the mindset behind videos like that at all.

Sorry to come over all grumpy old man here, but it has to be said.

I think a lot of it probably misses the target, but it's an attempt to use the same way of talking about things that young people do when they're excited by things. In exactly the same way our generation uses Simpsons memes. So, without futher ado:

I used to be with 'it', but then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm with isn't 'it' anymore and what's 'it' seems weird and scary. It'll happen to you!

A reference to The Traitors, it would seem.

[nigel-harps1954]

He didn't exactly light up the LOI last year, so wasn't really going to get his chance at Fulham. Good move for him to get really.

I can understand a bit of hype - but over a guy whose entire senior career is half a season struggling to make an impact at Derry?

Pick your battles, I'd have thought.

O'Neill looks like he couldn't be arsed in it too

Try and get into the mind of an early 20 something who probably came up with it,we’re not meant to understand that!!!!

Not sure if people have been watching it in Ireland or not, but The Traitors is a huge show in the UK at the moment. It seems to have captured the public's interest in a way that no reality type show has managed to do for years.

TBH I'm a bit obsessed by it. First programme I've made the effort to watch as it's being broadcast in years.

Yes it's genuinely a good show, and I say that as someone who wouldn't generally be a fan of reality type television. That and the excellent Race Across the World are the only two of those kinds of shows that have caught my interest in probably the last 10 years. So I can see why Leyton Orient would have used it for their signing announcement to be fair.

Both made by the same production company, Studio Lambert.

Goal and an assist last night in a 4-3 V Northampton. has started the last two, was being subbed on up to that since his move.
Orient with half an eye on the playoffs as things stand.

Goal and an assist for O'Neill on Tuesday night

A booking, a goal and an assist today in that order, to win 1-2 from 1-0 down away at play off spots Oxford.
Orient now six points from sixth.
Godrham got Oxfords.

[MancIrishWolf]

Scored the winner against Blackpool tonight in a 1-0 win. Certainly impressing the fans. Good career move getting game time down the divisions. Good head on his shoulders as well by the looks of Wikipedia (11 A*s at GCSE & 2 A*s at A-Level).

Scored in the semi final playoff tonight. Could be a championship player next year. I don't know much about him - is he much of a prospect?

[Kingdom]

I've seen him a couple of times for the 21s. He has something about him. He's very nippy in tight spaces I thought.

[Stuttgart88]

He gave the best U21 post-match interview ever after he was MOTM vs Sweden(?).
