Fast forward to now and Leyton Orient is on top of the table in League 2. So happy to see their fortunes turn around
Yeah it's really good to see, they deserve to be in League 1.
Time for copa to make a new doc if they go up to league one
Love that they’ve turned their problems around and think they’re a proper League One level club, but they’re a bunch of cheating shithouses and I hope they bottle promotion tbf 😂
Ever since watching this video I've been keeping an eye on The O's and happy to see them on top of EFL league 2 and most likely gonna be promoted to league 1

Six years on and Orient back in League One.
2018/19 National League champions.
2022/23 League Two champions.
Current manager Richie Wellens has talked about tbe impact of watching this video, and made the players watch to remind them that it's the fans who matter most.
Leyton Orient is back in League 2 and has a solid owner now
Great for football and well deserved good luck for the future from a Celtic fan
Cheers mate I was just guna ask that question? I new they were still in the league but wasn’t sure if they had got rid o the clowns 🤡....Great documentary great passion 👍
dont even watch soccer but glad to hear i really feel for these fans
Well done Orient 👏👏👏 I’m a QPR Fan and I’m old enough to remember a rear Sunday game at your place in the late 70’s We absolutely battered you for 90 mins .....we lost 4-0 😂😂😂 a surreal match . If you don’t believe me check out a match report 😳

I cried a little when the other fans started chanting for leyton. Copa90 keep sticking up for these clubs they are real football true fans.
Wow this documentary made me shed a few tears for a club I've never even heard of before. What incredible work and what incredible fans. I'm not even that into football!

You definitely will mate you cant keep a great club down...UP THE ORIENT..LOFC
Actually, we ran on to the pitch as we had just won promotion. Sorry about that. About 0.01% may have taken the piss. I gave an Oxford fan a hug in the car park and wished him luck.
Who is Oxford United?
Oxford are a bigger club than Arsenal.
I'm complaining about Liverpool maybe not getting top 4 and then I see this, so sad man.
Macca Mac Yeah, I realised this a few years ago. As an Arsenal supporter, this season was arguably our worst under Wenger and we still won the FA Cup and finished 5th, both of which give European football... we're lucky really.
As an orient fan, it feels good to be given a voice by such a well made professional documentary :)
dude, hope you ll come back fast. Orient`s fans deserve it !!
@@olddog3767 They are currently back in league 2 with new owners👍
@@freddiekilbey4226 Good for them, did they buy any players?
Hoping it goes great for you mate, it doesn't matter where we play so long as it's honest, the staff and players not being paid was disgusting. Cambridge United Fan here so i know the ups and downs, and that's fine if it's down to the team and the manager! It's not ok when it's down to an investor who just wanted a toy that he got bored with after a few months
Stand up for the Orient!
“I don’t think a Football club could be worse run”
Bury: Hold my beer
Halifax Town...QPR in the Thompson years and then during the Briatore years. How can some of these owners be considered "Fit & Proper"?? Hang in there O's fans. 46 years as a QPR fan :)
Brilliant that - well done Copa90. No disrespect, but this is what BBC Football Focus should be highlighting instead of wall to wall Premier League news.
Leyton Orient were one of the clubs challenging from promotion with my club, Wolves, from League One is 2014. Three years later and an incompetent foreign owner has almost destroyed the club. We've also seen once great clubs like Blackburn Rovers and Coventry City suffer relegation for the same reason. Foreign owners coming and ruining our great clubs needs to stop. The FA needs to pull their finger out.
We Hate Albion Wolves ay we !
Blackburn have more Prem titles then Liverpool, Spurs and Everton.
Fuck off Dingle!
Blackpool too

It's an absolute disgrace what happened to the O's. I read now they're back in League Two. I'm super happy to see they're back on their feet.
I have a deep respect for Orient fans, they could've just given up and they didn't. I was dating a girl from Essex at the time, and I was actually in the crowd during this game, and I really felt bad for the Orient fans after what they've been through.
Truly great work on this short documentary.
Respect from a Palermo supporter, our own relegation was confirmed today, good bye serie a. We are still recovering from the terror of Zamparini, since November of 2015 we've had 12 different managers. Good luck Leyton Orient! Life goes on
Shaun Gibbons When you don't even have your entire team anymore... Seems like it at least ☠️

10:44 That's a passionate fan right there shedding a tear for his team
4 years later... I'm a Sutton United ST holder, and we were their first match in the National League. Nearly 1,000 Orient fans were there, because Bechetti was finally out, and you could see the relief in the lot of them. I'll remember it until the day I die, because we beat Orient 2-0, and they just didn't care, because they had their club back. This year, we'll meet each other in League 2, with Orient back in the EFL where they belong, and us in the League for the first time in our 123 year history. Buzzing for it.
This is what your channel should be like. Not "Is Spurs bigger than Arsenal"
I was a Crewe fan at the game Crewe vs Orient game and we started chanting for Leyton Orient as well. I will never forget that game. Singing stand up for the Orient gave me goosebumps and it reminded me of how lucky of a position I'm in to support a club that's stable. I'll always have a soft spot for Leyton Orient now and will keep an eye on their results next season. Hopefully they get back in the football league at the first attempt and push on once again. Football fans are a family at the end of the day and I wouldn't wish the happenings at Leyton Orient on Crewe's biggest of rivals.

Who else is a Chesterfield fan and feels the same as these fans. In three years we've gone from play-offs in league 1 to bottom of league 2, probably our last season in the football league
coming from a die hard charlton fan, this video bought me to tears, glad he is gone. you will be back soon orient. all my love x
exactly what i was going to say Hannah. charlton got through it lets hope orient do
Incredibly well made documentary, genuinely hard hitting. Don't ever tell me football is just a game

Shocking whats happened
Hope they come back up quickly

Nothing but respect for the Orient fans. True passion and love for their club. What a documentary. #BecchettiOut
10:44: I was tearing up when I saw this. This is real human drama here, folks. I'm a grown man but this has, hands down, been one the most emotional story on real football I'd seen. Powerful stuff. I'm in absolute bits, especially seeing the moment the Colchester fans unite in solidarity with the Orient fans when just moments before they were about to rip each other's heads off!! This should be on TV for a wider audience. Tremendous documentory. #AFCWITHYOU
Thank you Copa 90 for telling our story to the masses. What a crazy six years it has been…. Speechless but ever so thankful… We’re BACK! X
Phenomenal documentary. So, so, so good.

This is f**king beautiful. Passion like this is the reason why i prefer the lower leagues over the corporate wasteland.
I hope orient make a swift return without this clown.
The fans are a credit
This is an absolutely brilliant documentry;it wouldn't look out of place on TV
13:47 is when I get goosebumps. Amazing video
German fan here, my favourite club got relegated to the 3rd division 2 weeks ago due to horrible decisions by the management throughout the whole season. I know what the Orient fans are going through. Tough times ahead, stay strong!
But at least the fans own KSC, so it's not as bad...
Karlsruhe ?
Michael Kyle I feel so sorry for clubs like that. As a Celtic fan, I've never experienced it but it must be heartbreaking.
Michael Kyle my team Valencia went from being one of the best teams in the world to becoming a shitty midtable team
Yes, I'm a Karlsruhe fan. Two years ago we conceded a 92nd minute equaliser in the deciding second play-off leg against Hamburg. Since then, it all went down-hill unfortunately.
It's kind of heartbreaking, yes. But I'll stick to my club, no matter what happens, just like the Orient fans in this video :)
As a Luton fan this still brings a tear to my eye , it reminds me of when we went non league :( best of luck Leyton orient !
I'm a Luton fan myself and I know exactly what you mean.
this shouldn't be a thing in football... no club deserves an end like this!
1080p Aviation It feels weird to know that my team denied them into a higher league
1080p Aviation I like you English fans who support lower teams. The top English league is awful for fans.. “fans” if that.
I’m a Millwall fan and I had a tear in my eye watching this. Rich people destroying a club with so much history again fucking makes me so angry good luck orient for the future
Shows how depressing football can really be sometimes. Actually nearly started crying
Sad to see my local team go down like this. My grandad was born in Leyton and supported the O's all his life, from before they were even called Leyton orient and were called Clapton orient. He sadly died this year and so have orient. Becchetti has killed this club, a proud club with a loyal fan base. My grandad must be turning in his grave at this and I know he found this season heartbreaking to watch. Hopefully The O's will bounce back and come back fighting #UpTheO's #BecchettiOut
Harvey Martin so sorry about your grandad i hope the o's go back up again from a burnley fan
Harvey Martin really sorry to hear mate, very difficult year for you & your family
Harvey Martin So sad. I wished that some of my fellow Arsenal fans and stop bitching about Arsenal dying as frankly what we are going through is not what you guys are going through. So ashamed as an Arsenal fan
To be fair, Arsenal fans have it worse. I mean they might not finish top 4 in the prem this season... Yeah they are in the FA cup final, but that is not good enough. Like, as an Os fan, I am unable to even think of what that would be like. I wouldn't wish what is happening to Arsenal on anyone...
hippotype wtf are you on about mate, arsenal are a huge club with a global reputation. Leyton orient have a corrupt owner and heading into the conference mate... just picture that
Meanwhile Pogba's agent gets 40 million quid - modern football folks.
All the best LOFC, see you again at Pride Park soon.
Agents are wankers. Would love to see them get fucked over by FIFA.
He´´ll be getting even more now that he has convinced Pogba to leave United.
I’m not a Leyton Orient fan but due to this excellent documentary I desperately wanted them to stay up.
Yo, props to Eli for jumping on board a random team and getting dug in - all for the name of journalism. Proper good job
It's one of the most disgusting thing to happen to a club in my lifetime, absolute shambles how the FA can let it happen.
It's an absolute disgrace what that owner has done. As a southend season ticket older I couldn't care less about rivalries here, feel so sorry for the orient supporters.
Ryan Fleming Thanks mate. Without rivalries it would be boring. But i wouldn't wish this on Southend either. The area needs proper football clubs which we both are. Hope to be back playing you guys sooner rather than later.
Chris Knight Same good luck for the coming season, you should go up hopefully. Seen you got David Mooney back after we released him. I think he'll do a good job and get you goals. Hopefully Championship awaits for us but we need a few players for that.
Ryan Fleming I have a few friends who are Southend fans and they seem quite optimistic. Phil Brown has done well for you. We are settled again now but most fans think we will finish mid table this season as we are playing catch up on other teams in terms of preparation and staff because the buy out only happened a few weeks ago. Signings are promising though. Mooney is a bit of legend at the o's didn't really happen for him at southend though. Frustrating player but scorer of great goals.
Chris Knight Yeah he always put 100% effort in and if he was given the right service and other players played to his style he would have scored lots more goals and also he was injured quite a bit. Also, he is a really nice guy.
Ryan Fleming I agree
I am a Burnley FC fan and we were lucky in the 86/87 season we played your lads at home got the win and Lincoln city lost going down and Burnley surviving . What I'm trying to say is I've always had a soft spot for Leyton orient and wish you well and get back as soon as possible because a club with your history still has more chapters to complete . Good luck ....see you again soon
I'm a fellow Claret. I feel the same way.
Cheers (Leyton Orient fan) good luck with your season, looking like Tarkowski might be going to the World Cup at this rate
The passion, beautiful. Respect to all orient fans, love from Glasgow.
A wonderful piece of journalism. Wonderful passion.

We are all one.
Good luck orient (Wigan athletic fan)
What a documentary, so sad, class support. Got goosebumps when the ColU and Orient fans clapped together
I got chills and get chills on my skin every time I see the ColU and Orient fans singing like that. It's just...stunning.
I'm from the United States but this is heartbreaking to watch. No fans of a club should have to go through this.
I'm an orient fan went to see the games
So happy I support villa
Hold my beer says the Jets fans
this is why American sports don't have relegation. You lot will launch lawsuits and riot in the streets.

This is a phenomenal piece of work. Absolutely outstanding!!
Amazing video. We are all Orient.
Melendez where all Rotherham
My club, Fulham, is foreign owned but let's face it: How many of these foreign owners have fucked it up throughout the years? Why are they considered 'fit for purpose' by the FA and the league when they know nothing about English football, especially League One or League Two? When will these fuckwits realize that all these London clubs - including mine - are local, community clubs, NOT multinationals like the big four (ie, Arsenal, West Ham, Tottenham & Chelsea)? Why can't they go and buy a local team in their native cities and leave OUR clubs alone? Rant over.
Prolix8 It's not just foreign owners. There are also English owners how mess with teams.
True, Blackpool an excellent example (Coventry another one) but overall, the majority of cock ups come from foreign owners: Leyton, Charlton and Forest to name a few.
True but still believe too many gringos are getting involved with English football.
Fulham would still be in the lower divisions if it wasn't for Al fayed buying your way into the premier league players like Peschosolido etc.
Saha, Albert etc... yes and 99% of Fulham fans are grateful. No problem but as said, most foreign owners are terrible and don't know what they're doing.
Luton fan here. Still like to watch this video from time to time. So much passion and love for their team and follow till the end. Reminds me of how our owner tried dragging us to the ashes. Stand together and you'll rise again.
Watching the Colchester fans unite with orient made me well up,class from Colchester
This is why lower leagues will always be proper football, the English game of the working class, nothing but pure passion from these people who pay through thick and thin! Dodgy owners destroying hearts, similar with Blackpool, charlton and loads more. How can the efl let this happen.

I did it before. That's how I got here.
@@nemphis95 same, and I’m from Italy, just like the previous owner, so I feel a bit bad about it, although in 2027 we won the treble
Great video, great set of fans, deserve so much better. Look forward to them getting themselves back in the football league where they belong. Argyle Fan.
Great documentary. Well filmed, well narrated and what a story! Top class.

BECHETTI OUT NOW
Love these videos so much, shows the true heart and connection football brings. Much love copa 90!!
What an absolute great documentary! Stumbled across it by accident! And was totally glued to it!
this is the kind of stuff that makes realize how well organized the clubs in south america are. not all of them of course but here in argentina all clubs on the first division have presidents instead of owners, every club should be like this
its a diferent culture. here all the clubs started from scratch and financed themselves until the 80s, when sponsors were implemented and meant a new income.
what i mean is that businessman that don't care one bit about football or the club they own shouldn't run any team in any division, fans are the true owners this is a disgrace
No they are not. Fans of argentian and german clubs are "true owners" . English ones are not
Hartlepool fan here. Feel for orient, don't deserve this and we're in a very similar position. Hope both clubs recover next season
Thanks for beating Doncaster
You won us the league
The best football documentary I’ve ever seen... you guys still keep making me proud!
what a brilliant documentary, Eli, you have really captured the heartbreak.
blackpool next please, oyston is another clown.

Don’t let Fawaz al Hasawi take you, he will relegate you very quickly as he nearly did to forest
@@luukvangendt5541 so wait your telling me blackpool are just shit
Brilliant video. As a Luton fan, I'm disgusted by what the chairman has done to a club full of history, passion and integrity. The EFL & Football League should also be ashamed for not stepping in and stopping this from happening. Spineless. I sincerely hope the owners leave ASAP, you regroup and smash the Conference. See you back in the league in 2018/2019 season with your new fit and proper owners. Back where Orient belong.
Just donated £1 to Leyton Orient at the Brentford Blackburn game. #Bechettiout
Tdog you a Rovers fan? Unlucky against Brentford, you did everything right just so did Forest and Birmingham.
Tdog Brentford don't hate Orient. Its a munufactured rivalry from Orient supporters. To be honest we (true Brentford fans) couldnt give a stuff about Orient. That being said i do feel for orient and that clown of an owner should be made accountable. The football league should bow their heads in shame.
Elliot Davis The two teams we don't get along with are QPR (over what they tried to do to us in 1967) or Fulham (local rivals that we played against throughout the 80's and 90's. Orient was never a rivalry as such.
+dazmeister2k7 what happen in 67 with qpr?
Elliot Davis QPR tried to liquidate us due to our poor finances and take our stadium as it was bigger than loftus road in those days. Brentford were literally hours from going out of existance and being taken over by QPR but fans raised just enough money to survive through the courts. There is a UA-cam video on the official Brentford FC channel about it. That's why we dislike QPR.
Awesome documentary making, capturing the drama and emotion.
That was a brilliant video, really captured the emotions of what those poor Orient fans had and were going through. Feel so sorry for them. I can't recall feeling like this after watching another team's video.
Fair play to those Colchester fans for uniting with the cause, unreal.
Heartbreaking. I was lucky enough to be in London and able to attend four Leyton matches last season. It's a beautiful club in a part of London that is really vibrant. Fuck Beccheti.
What a lovely man that Leyton orient fan was
This just came up on my recommended 3 years later... and although these times shown in this video aren’t exactly happening now, I’ve completely fallen in love with this club. An amazing documentary!
I'm not a Leyton Orient fan but my word what a fantastic documentary, so well done and have such respect for you. Fantastic work!
Nice to see all the supportive comments from fans of other clubs. Hope you guys bounce back from this from a chesterfield fan
Who else is back here now bechetti's gone
He's gone? Thank god.
yeah, i think another person who knows their shit has taken over, hopefully they'll recover from this now.
Eddie ahern the promoter use to be the chairman maybe he has the money to help them as well..
Sean Keating so did he buy that guy out and has he said he is willing to put money back into the club I hope so they use to be a good side no massive but still a lot better than this.... The FA should charge people like this ex owner...
steven clark they can’t find him he ran away , we are in mid table now in national league got a great manager and other players good to we look like we may return to football league next year
great work again copa 90 , thank you, my heart goes out to the orient from a pompey fan who witness similar scenes
Still watch this after 3 years! It's probably one of the best documentaries from Copa 90 And look at the table 0:30 - Brentford are now Premier League...7 years later!
Dear Leyton Orient fans, it will turn around.
I am a Lincoln City fan and as you are well aware it is we who are taking your place next season in the Football League. Six years ago, we too lost our league status after a disastrous run of defeats at the business end of the season - the memory still hurts.
We've had half a decade of mediocrity since then, with a team who had never really threatened to challenge to even consistently break into the top half of the National league table, and with a board with recognisably good intentions but with no clout to back it up. It has been torrid time as a LCFC fan to say the least.
This year was our clubs renaissance, a dogged campaign full of fight in the NL to take the title and a headline grabbing run in the FA Cup - we had to wait, we had to be patient, but it has finally come. It just takes a spark to lift a club, to fulfil it's potential and the expectations folks have of it, and ours came right out of left field in the shape of the Cowley brothers. It's all the more amazing what they and the players have achieved because our expectations for last season weren't particularly high.
It's a different scenario for you, your expectation is obviously to bounce right back and I hope you can do that once you have managed to oust the criminal Beccheti, that odious coward. I hope you find that aforementioned spark and that Leyton Orient as a club and community can get back in the EFL as soon as possible, it is where you are meant to be. When that day comes, I look forward to crossing swords at Sincil Bank. Good luck next season.
Three Steps Sideways Thanks. Well aware of the Lincoln story, i used to follow a fans vlog on youtube back in the day around the time you dropped out and kept an eye on things in the conference. Glad you've made your way back to the football league, Lincoln fans were always a good laugh. We are finally rid of Becchetti so hopefully onwards and upwards, but i know it may take a while.
Orient need rebuild time but when I’m low because of footy I think it could be worse than this. Forest fan by the way. #mindthegap
We’re back! But our coach sadly passed who got us back 🥺😢
You were correct mate, we are in a good position right now
As a filmmaker and a football fan, this is a work of art and I take my hat off to you. You have perfectly captured the heart, soul and solidarity that these fans of shown.
I've seen ups and downs with Norwich - even being knocked out of the FA Cup by Orient - but nothing could compare to what this club has been through.
Geez, as a Villa fan, I thought just getting relegated to the championship a few years back was bad enough, but to see what Orient had gone through, I’m so glad things are starting to look better again! All the best LOFC!!
such a great, moving documentary.... #ourclub
I'm not a Leyton Orient fan but this is heartbreaking to watch how a big club have been destroyed by a SHITTY owner. Ömer Riza and Neale Fenn did brilliantly with what they had to work with but it's really upsetting to how the football league haven't done anything it's a disgrace #becchettiout
Conor Blake they weren’t a big club they were terrible if they were in league 1
What the U.K. really needs is a 50+1 rule, like in Germany.
With that rule it's impossible to just "buy" a club. Investors can only buy 49% of a club, so that the final decisions about what's going on with the clubs always stays with the members.
Thanks copa 90 for covering the stories that matter, a brilliant piece. As a Tottenham fan I know what heartbreak is, but this is something else. A massive club being destroyed before our eyes. The FA needs to do something about this, disgrace.
Being a united fan this makes me grateful that my owners aren’t THIS BAD
aged well
This was somehow one of the most beautiful and amazing displays of love and passion of supporters toward their club. Bechetti or whatever that shit bag’s name is, should be put in front of all these great fans, and whatever happens should go unpunished. God Bless Orient and their supporters, best of luck from an Arsenal fan.
I'm a Luton fan and I am devastated to see Orient go down in 2009 we went down and it took us 5 years to get back in the football league and those 5 years felt like hell I wouldn't wish relegation from league 2 to any team (other than our rivals) but still #Becchetti Out
I lived in Leyton for two years back in 2005. Good luck guys, hope your shit gets sorted! From South Africa.
I am on the other side of the world, had never heard of LO, yet find myself really touched by this video. Great passion and sensitivity by the film maker. Moving stuff.
Wooooow! That was amazing. I’m touched in a so deep way. Probably the best video about football I have ever watched, it‘s not just a game!!!
Thanks a lot for this sensational documentary
