When Leyton Orient travel up to Stockport next month, it’ll be the first meeting between the two sides in League One since 2009-10. Since then, both clubs have been relegated from the Football League, before returning from the non-league wilderness as National League champions and then going on to win the League Two title. The various plots and characters may vary, but the overall story arcs are fairly similar.
