Things Others Say About Brentford FC

This is quite scary reading actually.
I know we've drawn our last 4 mind, but still... only Burnley and Tottenham are waiting longer for a win.

Not really when you remember that our last (PL) defeat was 52 days ago.

As we've only played four PL games since February it is frankly a meaningless statistic and is just a reflection of how few matches there are at some points of the season.

Our match got a rave review on TalkSport this morning 🤣


Ally McCoist: "Saturday I was two games. I did Brentford. Which could potentially be the worst game in history and then Chelsea Manchester United and I watched a couple of games yesterday, so brilliant, some football eh".
Jeff: "Yeah...but not at Brentford...or indeed at Stamford Bridge."
Ally McCoist: "Horrendous. Horrendous."
Ally McCoist: "My last 3 games I have had Arsenal Sporting Lisbon, Brentford Fulham, and Chelsea Manchester United, I would rather go for route canal treatment than have to sit through those 3 again."

The feeling is mutual with that rambling and incoherent, uninformative, clueless jock. His comments usually starting with ‘you’re not wrong Jeff….’ are on a level with the worst pub bores.

He is a horrible commentator, always change to a different channel when he is on.
He is always massively biased towards one of the teams, with no rhyme or reason as to which one it is

Tbf, if you strip away the usual Talk sh*te hyperbole/McCoist bolloxology, I'd say that it can't have been the most interesting/memorable of games for a neutral. I mean, a total of four shots on target, none of them from the visitors, suggests you'd have to have had some skin in the game to get much from it.

Anyhow, none of it is worth getting bothered about, along with 99.998% of the nonsense emanating from that station.

P.S. I saw Alex McLeish outside the West Stand before the game, with someone who's the dead spit of Gordon Strachan (a regular Bees fan, I'm told): wonder what he thought of it?

I once saw Alex McLeish at a West Brom v. Bees game. Does that mean he’s now classed as a fan?

I listened to him and his sidekick (Darren Fletcher?)wittering away on Saturday. Their commentary was insulting, unprofessional, annoying , childish and uninformative throughout.
It was like 2 young boys having a laugh in a pub.

Yes, I watched it back and it was pretty disgraceful. They really couldn't give a f*** about the game and didn't want to be there. Fletcher (Forest fan) doesn't have a lot of time for us.

Comment in the Guardian today from a Man U fan
Brentford are one of those teams the group of ‘big dicks’ at Chelsea should have a look at to see how a football club should be run. Just compare Brentford and Chelsea’s spending record. The sight of those contrasting numbers will make your head spin and cause you to wonder at the sheer stupidity of the Chelsea owners who obviously have no idea about running a football club. The Brentford board will be smiling broadly as they climb above Chelsea before seasons end. It’s a club that needs to be admired, thought I hope we give them footballing prols a dam good Monday night thrashing.

For me if we finish above Chelsea in the league it would feel like reaching the Holy Grail. Decades supporting the Bees has always seen our relationship with Chelsea very David and Goliath even when we have picked up points from them in the PL. To finish above them would be an historic achievement

Indeed. I won £50 off of a very mouthy Chelsea supporting mate (aren't they all?). He's won money off of me the last couple of seasons but it's looking like I'll be getting some back this year hopefully. Straight after winning the Club World Cup he couldn't help himself. The fact that Sanchez won the Golden Glove in that tournament tells you everything you need to know!!!

No mate. I won it the first year we had the bet and my ego won't let me back down when he's proposed it every year since. At my golf club I'd guess there are around 70-80 Chelsea fans and I'm the only Bees fan so I let them know about it whenever we get one over them. But now I can't back down and get it in the neck when we lose from a lot of them.

Initially he gave me the draw when we played them in those bets we have but he's stopped offering that now. I cheekily offered him the draw earlier this season when we played them at Stamford Bridge. He didn't take it but it didn't matter.

As a toon fan.

Just wanted to let you guys know for what it's worth, last night's match v Man U - you were VERY unlucky - corroborated for me what an excellent side to watch you are. Great football and always dangerous, everything we are not at present.

Just wanted to register my admiration. Incidentally I was fuming with Thiago last night. He's been spot on, I was really surprised l.

Take care all

As former Brentford manager Charlie Dickens once said, it was the best of times it was the worst of times.

Thanks for the crazy money for our petulant striker btw! :)

Unprompted comment from a Man U fan on another forum:
"[We] need to shore up for Sunday, especially those wide areas. Brentford are a delight to watch though. Hope they get Europe."

Another one admitted Bees "could have scored six".

Neville and the studio fan shut him down though. 😕

Yeah, he was a man alone in that debate because the studio fan wanted to talk about how good Mainoo was. I liked when he said he was the best player on the pitch... and Scholes said "for both sides?"... i.e. he thought one our players was man of the match.

There's an Everton fan about 25 mins later who said we were there for the taking in that 2-2 draw a couple of weeks ago, so most of these fans are just delusional anyway.

Alex Crook chief football editor for TalkSport getting his predictions for next season in early:

After the departures of Thomas Frank and Bryan Mbeumo, many pundits predicted relegation for the Bees.
Keith Andrews has silenced critics, steering the team to within one point of European qualification.
However, Crook remains cautious, saying: "I think a struggle next season is on the cards and I could see the club fighting relegation but it remains an impressive recruitment model from Matthew Benham.”

Its a given that "pundits" and "people in the know" will say we will get relegated.
Just enjoy the inevitable top 10 finish and watch them squirm and backpedal like they have for the last 5 years

Guardiola has just commented in his Press Conference:
"I watched Brentford at Old Trafford, for example, because they will be our next opponent, and I was very impressed. Even though they lost, they played really well. I think Brentford have had an incredible season."

Probably true.
But at least they normally have the good grace to do it in the close season!!!
And not picking out a side that still has realistic European qualification chances, with the current season still in full flow!!! 😄
