:02:45.:02:49.

deal with is whether Mark Duggan had a gun when he got out of the car,

They will have to ask themselves was it and thereby Mark Duggan himself?

:03:01.:03:05.

Was it kicked there by a paramedic? officer? For the next two months,

:19:04.:19:05.

Leyton Orient have been winning everything on the field this season

:19:06.:19:16.

in League One, but today, their first defeat. It was at the High

:19:16.:19:20.

Court, and came as the club failed to persuade judges to look again at

:19:21.:19:22.

the possibility of them sharing to persuade judges to look again at

:19:22.:19:25.

Olympic Stadium with West Ham. Adrian Warner was in court. Adrian,

:19:25.:19:33.

a disappointing day for Orient. It was a bad day. 90 minutes, a whole

:19:33.:19:40.

match worth, the Leyton Orient barrister stood trying to persuade

:19:40.:19:43.

the judge that the corporation had considering their bid to ground

:19:43.:19:48.

share, saying it had not had a chance to put their case forward.

:19:48.:19:53.

The judge kicked it firmly into touch. He said, look, legacy company

:19:53.:19:58.

have taken a logistical, rational unfairness. Remember, they decided

:19:59.:20:04.

against Leyton Orient because they were not paying enough rent to cover

:20:04.:20:06.

the cost. That would have meant were not paying enough rent to cover

:20:06.:20:10.

London taxpayer would have been subsidising the event every time

:20:10.:20:18.

What does it mean for the club? It is not great. West Ham are coming

:20:18.:20:22.

into their area. It will be harder for them to get new fans, no doubt

:20:22.:20:27.

about it. I think this is not going away yet, because the House of Lords

:20:27.:20:30.

are doing an investigation into Olympic legacy and have been asking

:20:30.:20:35.

questions, saying, why don't Leyton Orient get the chance to come back?

Couple of days ago, I had a chat Orient get the chance to come back?
