It's not that, though, it's the kids, families and floating fans. If you live in the area, aren't that into football yourself but want to take the kids to a game, Orient used to be the cheaper, friendlier and safer option. Now, if you can take them to a Championship (cough) game in a massive stadium with great facilities (provided by the taxpayer) for less, of course you're going to. So the future of Orient disappears. The hardcore will obviously continue to go, but they age, dwindle and die.
