hmm, I am getting into my Mulder role as chief conspiracy theorist

Looks familiar, there's something to this Scully

Orient.....Means 'The East' in relation to Europe, Our owner is from the Orient......maybe this swung the interview process in Slade's favour, no bs, this could of honestly of attracted Tan to this idea to hire him. I've heard all the sprinkling on water onto the pitch, lucky colours, so this theory is clearly feasable

Leyton Orient really is Tan's wet dream for how his football club should be.

They are not dragons. They are wyverns which were on the main ancient English flag. Nothing to do with the welsh griffin. Wyverns are a cross between serpents and dragons. I only know this because I have a tattoo of one.

A Griffin is half Lion half Eagle mate.

Dragon is the symbol of the 'Orient' I assumed, but assuming is not enough in an investigation as important as this...I will continue this in depth investigation later. We are breaking new barriers here, spooky Tan chose the manager of the Orient

if the wyvern is half snake (Dalman) half Dragon (Tan) then this throws up lots of unanswered questions hmm

A wyvern (/ˈwaɪvərn/ weye-vərn), sometimes spelled wivern, is a legendary winged creature with a dragon's head (which may be said to breathe fire or possess a venomous bite) and wings; a reptilian body; two legs (sometimes none); and a barbed tail. A sea-dwelling variant, dubbed the sea-wyvern, has a fish tail in place of a barbed dragon's tail.

The wyvern in its various forms is important to heraldry, frequently appears as a mascot of schools and athletic teams (chiefly in the United States and United Kingdom), and occasionally appears in medieval and modern European and British literature as well as a multitude of video games.
