Leyton Orient boss Russell Slade has hit out at some of the club's fans following Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Oldham Athletic in League One.

The O's saw their automatic promotion hopes dented at Brisbane Road as Korey Smith scored a late equaliser for the visitors to cancel out Scott Cuthbert's opener.

Orient are now three points off second-placed Brentford having played two games more.

Slade told Sky Sports News: "It's just so sad isn't it in the first half that they just didn't get behind the team? I find that so disappointing. Then we even got booed off at the end by some of them. It's a joke.

"Some people are criticising me and saying that we've given up. As a manager, I've not given up, this team has not given up. I'm frustrated for the players."

Orient return to League One action on Saturday at home to Bradford City.
