This has made my very boring Saturday just a little bit better. It was meant to be a full strength side as well. ![Laugh :lol: :lol:](/forum/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/laugh.gif)

Newcastle slumped to a 6-1 defeat to Leyton Orient, while Sven Goran Eriksson saw Notts County beat local rivals Nottingham Forest 2-1.
Newcastle's pre-season preparations suffered a major blow at Brisbane Road after being hit by six by League One club Leyton Orient.
Still looking for a new manager and a new owner, Orient piled the misery on the beleaguered Magpies who fielded close to a full-strength line-up.
Jimmy Smith headed Orient in front after just four minutes and they doubled their lead from the penalty spot courtesy of Sean Thornton's spot-kick after Habib Beye handled the ball inside the box
Joey Barton pulled a goal back from the penalty spot just before the half hour mark after Obafemi Martins was hauled down.
Orient restored their two-goal lead on 52 minutes with an acrobatic overhead kick from Scott McGleish.
The home side continued to torment Newcastle with Tamika Mkandawire adding a fourth two minutes later and substitute Ryan Jarvis added a fifth on 82 minutes.
Orient completed the rout three minutes from time with Harry Baker notching the sixth to leave Newcastle with a lot to think about before the new season kicks-off in two weeks' time.
