King Bee

No you are not the only one. I suspect members of the Bees hierarchy also thought the same, as did I and several others on this board….

82 year old Keith Hackett reckons the club should have consulted him for advice… View: https://x.com/hackettref/status/2120400505759318309?a=MepB_4FHKic5ZGaOn9w&s=46

Exactly. The decision was clearly made before Brentford submitted their evidence. That I have no doubt and you can see how it was played out in the press from the initial Brentford are appealing and here are the likely avenues of appeal to the...

I’m still somewhat taken back how quickly the decision was made. FA rules give Brentford until 1pm the day after the match to give notice and 1pm the following day (Tuesday in this case) to file its claim and evidence. If the Commission reached...

Wow, Brooks really is such a poor referee! That booking for Porro was outrageous!

Let me offer a different viewpoint. We all agree that Jacquet appears to initiate the confrontation. Could an alternative view be that Yarmoliuk is punished for what may have been an instinctive reaction rather than a deliberate act of...

My estimation of McGinn went up a notch after he called us a fantastic team on MOTD (which must have grated with the Villa fans). He is still an arse though…

That said, I can’t see any resolution other than a points deduction guaranteed to lead to relegation that would satisfy other EPL and former EPL clubs that have been punished. This has tarnished the EPL so they need to be seen to getting their...

The Government and EPL would then a put time limit on ownership of football clubs by state or state owned entities of say 2 years, allowing an orderly exit.

It doesn’t bode well for the kids he’s teaching either…not impressed with the syntax or overall tenor of argument.

Same thought crossed my mind. Must be weird right now being an United fan…

We’re more likely to put Janelt or Hickey at CB for Reading than Diouf

Hmm, the same midfield that dominated Eintracht and Spurs, and had Brum chasing shadows? The problem on Saturday came down our RHS, which is where Sunderland had most of their success in the first half. Sangare was covering for the gaps being...

Similar to what Spurs are likely paying Chelsea for Mudryk!

Exactly why he was taken off I suspect.

The “Sangaré chose Brentford over United” line feels like industrial-strength cope. Yes, there are endless United links on X, post hoc I might add, about their interest. But being “linked” by aggregators and transfer accounts isn’t the same...

Don’t think he finished drinking since he signed Sangare!

Gustavo and Ji-Soo’s best chance of a move will be using the EFL Trophy games as a shop window…

Precisely, and it’s what I’ve said in other threads. The standard has to be that if the referee had awarded the penalty would VAR have cause to overturn? If the answer is no then the reverse cannot be true in the event that the referee doesn’t...
