Leyton Orient v Cheltenham Town: Justin Edinburgh remembered before opening game

Leyton Orient and Cheltenham Town supporters paid tribute to former Orient boss Justin Edinburgh before the opening game of the League Two season.

Former Tottenham full-back Edinburgh died in June aged 49, five days after suffering a cardiac arrest during a visit to the gym and just over a month after leading Orient to the National League title.

Two flags, including one paid for by money raised by two Cheltenham supporters’ groups, were carried around the pitch before kick-off.

A minute’s silence was also held, while home supporters held up banners to create a “JE3” mosaic.

The Justin Edinburgh 3 Foundation was set up by his family during the summer.

In June, Edinburgh’s son Charlie told BBC Essex they would campaign to change the law regarding access to defibrillators at sports facilities, and also raise awareness about heart and cardiac issues.
