Fans and residents watch a match from an apartment overlooking Leyton Orient Football Club's pitch. The East London club's Matchroom Stadium is on Brisbane Road in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. They have officially been in existence since 1881, although the 'Orient' part of their name only came into use in 1888 when a player who worked for the Orient Shipping Line thought the moniker suitable for an East London team but to fans they are simply known as the 'O's'.
