With Enfield manager Brad Quinton gone back to Braintree as manager, perhaps Mark Bentley will go back to the club he played for? I know Mark was keen to get back into non-league management after the goings-on at Orient.
Or will Hakan Hayrettin go back to the place where he was born?
We'll see.

Hope Bentley is ok it is nice to see a former manager doing ok. not good to hear they are struggling. The Orient Chairman has been making promises about all sorts of things for a very long time, but unfortunately it appears he didn't deliver, which meant that players weren't paid and/or didn't know when their next payment would be made. Mark was involved in their youth set-up, but I don't know if he is still there. He came to our home game against Enfield towards the end of last season and said he was keen to get back to managing a senior side rather than a youth team. I hope it works out for him. A top bloke!

Mark was at Ware today.
I had a brief chat with him just as I was leaving after the game.
He is now at Stevenage Borough running the Under 16s.
Still hoping for a senior manager's job, but good to see him looking well. He seemed to enjoy our win. Think we should invite him to all our games!

I spoke to Mark at one of games last season. He was telling me how difficult he was finding it to get back into senior football.
He had been helping with the youth teams at Stevenage.
One of football's nice guys.
I hope it goes well for him.

Wondered what had happened to Mark I think the appointment of him as manager is a shame as it will take some of the joy of beating them away.Always rated Mark as a manager
