There are some good players at Orient who have been offered new contracts.
Centre halfs Omar Beckles and Dan Happe are from London so I can't see them leaving.
Paul Smyth (25) will attract loads of interest after his excellent season. 34(4) league apps and 10 goals. The same applies to keeper Lawrence Vigouroux.
Midfielder Jordan Brown (21) was at Derby County and is from Stoke. He made 15(19) league apps for Orient last season and scored 1 goal.
Former Alfreton and Worksop Town midfielder Craig Clay (31) leaves Orient after 6 years. He's helped them win two promotions.
Left back Connor Wood (26) may sign for Colchester United where he was on loan. 15(1) league apps.
6 foot 7 centre forward Harry Smith (27) will attract interest. He went out on loan to Exeter in League 1 but didn't enjoy it so came back and went out on loan to Barnet scoring 7 goals in 9(2) appearances. He has a reasonable goalscoring record with 38 goals in 104(63) league apps. He has scored against the Stags in the past for Macclesfield Town and Northampton Town. He will attract interest especially as a Plan B striker.
