Peter Åhlén has contributed with the full story on Orient's homes during their years in the league
The history of Brisbane Road
Orient´s present ground was the home of Leyton amateurs who were having some difficulty paying the rent to the council in 1937. Wasting no time, Orient stepped in and took over the ground during the summer. There was one stand seating 475 people, scathingly referred to as "the orange box" and a cover on the West Side for standing spectators. All the banking was cinder. The club's first game there was on 28.08.1937 vs. Cardiff City, watched by 14.598.
