More on Leyton Orient F.C.
Description from Wikipedia:
Leyton Orient F.C. are an English professional football team from east London, currently playing in League One of the Football League. The team is known by its fans as Orient or simply The O's.
Leyton Orient's home stadium, Brisbane Road, is situated in Leyton, in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. It is officially known as the Matchroom Stadium after chairman Barry Hearn's sports promotion company. Barry Hearn became chairman in 1995 after the club was famously put on sale for five pounds by the then-chairman, Tony Wood OBE, after his coffee-growing business in Rwanda was destroyed by that country's civil war. The period of the club's near-closure was covered by the television documentary Orient: Club for a Fiver (made by Open Media for Channel 4). The documentary is commonly but incorrectly known as Yours for a Fiver.
Historic rivals included neighbours Leyton F.C., and the now disbanded/merged clubs Leytonstone F.C., Walthamstow Avenue F.C. and Wanderers F.C.. The Leyton F.C. rivalry dissolved decades ago due to Leyton F.C. being of a lower status and not a full-time professional football club. The O's geographically closest professional club rival is West Ham United. This local derby rarely takes place as the clubs have spent most of their history in different divisions. Orient's biggest rivals at the moment are Southend United with whom they spent many years in League 2. The other main local professional rivals are now Millwall who play in Bermondsey South East London.
