Jordan Brown - Finally Official

[HighfieldSeasider]

Rumours doing the rounds that we've had a 400k offer accepted for him, 24 year old defensive midfielder at Leyton Orient.

Played 45 games last season, scoring 3 goals.

 

[Chunkylad]

That would be a good move. Orient were a better team than us last season and he was their DM.

 

[Cuthbert]

It seems the focus is building a team with backbone

 

[Mcewans Mullet]

Its on the Os boards and they aren't happy.

Its on the Os boards and they aren't happy.

Just had a look and this comment stood out to me as it's exactly the type of player we need to complete our midfield imo....

'Jordan always seemed to be in the right place to Nick the ball be it a tackle, interception, particularly when the other team attacked.

His one touch passing was very good and that kept the momentum going good'

 

[NotOrangePod]

It would be an excellent addition if the rumour becomes true. Genuinely Orient's unsung hero who makes them tick.

Perfect for our team.

Breaks up play extremely well and has a lot of energy. Something we lacked a lot in the middle last season.

[Pun_1]

Just what we are missing from our midfield. At the right age. Fingers crossed on this.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

Would be a great signing. Another potential steal from a team who was up there last season.

 

[Adams Kebab]

Like the look of this one.

Watched the 2nd leg of play-offs and he was busy as.

Just what we need in there.

 

[bfcpete]

Sounds a decent player, but not a tall one

 

[HighfieldSeasider]

Sounds a decent player, but not a tall one

Neither is N'Golo Kante and he wasn't a bad defensive midfielder.....

Jordan Brown is 5ft 11" so hardly a midget.

Keith Southern is 5ft 10".

Why does a DM have to be tall.

Nobby Stiles was 5' 6"

More importantly the man who perfected the modern day DM (and was marginally better than Keith Southern) - Claude Makelele, was 5'9"

 

[S88bfc]

A good signing if we pull this off, he’s what was missing last season

 

[Steve Birch]

Bobby Stiles was 5' 6"

More importantly the man who perfected the modern day DM (and was marginally better than Keith Southern) - Claude Makelele, was 5'9"

Nobby!

 

[Chunkylad]

Nobby!

Yeah bloody Steve Jobs being a prick again on auto correct. Amended

 

[Shiggy]

Not seen this one come from any credible source as of yet

 

[GrahamwantshisOates]

I read somewhere that Leyton Orient have splashed out on a midfielder. Record transfer for them .
Not sure if this all ties in

Shhhh.... don't ruin a good thing

 

[Wilburrabbit]

No confirmation. I see Offiah has joined the Nobbers

They sold Galbraith for a record transfer fee, and then bought El Mizouni for a record transfer fee. El Mizouni plays the exact same position as Brown.

Best story concerning Norbert was the World cup semi final team talk.
Sir Alf said, Norbert I want you to mark Eusebio. To which Nobby replied, OK boss which leg

[A_Tense_Grin]

Is he better than Onomah?

Who isn’t

A new Gnasher sounds good to me.

Every team needs one. We’ve been missing one for a while now

Keith Southern is 5ft 10".

Claude Makalele wasn't bad either 5ft 9"

 

[gjr]

Is he better than Onomah?

When you consider the Orient budget i thought they have been one of the best teams we have seen over the last 2 seasons.
Particularly strong in midfield where Galbraith and Brown operated. He would be better than Onomah!
Also think we should've gone for Wellens when Critchley went.

[Chunkylad]

Brown is 5ft 9

All confusing. Internet says he's 181cm.

 

[bfcpete]

All confusing. Internet says he's 181cm.

Yes, I miss read it

 

[TommyHutch]

All confusing. Internet says he's 181cm.

Yes, it does doesn’t it? If you google the conversion in cms it is 5’11”, if you google 1.81 m in feet n inches it’s 5’9. All very confusing. No wonder I had to re-sit Maths.

 

[voyeur]

Apparently took no part in a pre season game today. He's from Stoke. A couple of fans on their forum think 400k is money they should take and run, but plenty don't want him to leave. Looks very much like El Mizouni has come in to replace him, he's been there in loan previously and Wellens loves him clearly.

 

[AllezBlackpool]

He signed and we've loaned him back

 

[OhhhBarryBarry!]

All confusing. Internet says he's 181cm.

Football manager always had Shayne Lavery down as 185 cm and not at all injury prone

 

[Bispham_Seasider]

It has indeed with the edit stating "its only rumours as yet".

 

[pickering_hat_trick]

Yes, I miss read it

Heard it's close/contracts discussions happened. Just someone I know who's close at the O's.
