Away days are finally back, and we cannot wait to see our Faithful Grecians roaming up and down the country once again!

The Ground

Originally known as Osborne Road, the East London ground has been home to Leyton Orient (and versions of) for over 80 years.
The main stand at Brisbane Road is named after former manager Justin Edinburgh, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 49. The left-back had a great playing career with over 200 appearances for Tottenham Hotspur through the 90’s winning the FA Cup in 1990/91 and the League Cup in 1998/99.
As a manager, Justin Edinburgh championed Leyton Orient back into the Football League in 2018/19 season. The stand was renamed in honour of Edinburgh in January 2020.
