I appreciate the thought. I think we can be in for a great season… but I believe we lack two/three star players that Leicester had like Vardy, Kante, Mahrez…
We've got our Kante...

Scanning The Fighting Cock (Spurs fans’ forum), I spotted this:
Brentford do things the right way. Owners hire good people and let them get on with their stuff. Terrific manager who is still underrated and who hasn't got the world's biggest ego running unchecked. Hardworking, selfless players who give everything for each other and care about the club & its fans, not just their paycheck and image.

Is this the first time we have had a foreign broadcaster pitch side?

The Brentford ‘ad block’ requirement when the manager is being interviewed outside of the press room looks new as well, unless it’s just a non-UK thing I’ve never seen before.
Could be. KA made a joke along the lines of it was nice seeing them smartly dressed for a change…

"Make the game difficult. But don't let a team that will finish in bottom half of the table piss all over you. Even in Poch's early games you could see wgat he was trying to do. We were never dicked by a bottom half team. Yesterday was as bad as I can remember because there was nothing to grasp at." - some wally on spurs forum

Pretty audacious to claim we are a bottom half team given the last couple of seasons and the start to this one :ROFLMAO:

Poch's first game was against errrm..I believe it was us. They only difference was they had Kane to get them out of jail. They were a better team back then

I'd have said the same if we lost to them though 🤷‍♀️

I sit close to where the outdoor TV podium is placed and couldn't understand why the pundits were all ludicrously overdressed and an assistant was obsessively adjusting the woman presenters make up every time they were about to go live. It all felt so over manicured. Then I realised it was for an American broadcast and it all made sense.

The last time I was that close to Robbie Earle he stopped for a chat with me when I was the only person wandering around outside Vale Park about 2 hours before kick off on a bitterly cold day in January 1987. We lost 4-1 and Frank Mclintock got the sack.

Poch took over at Spurs in 2014 so I don't think that's right.
We played them the first game of 2023/24 when Ange had just taken over so that might be who you're thinking of.

Along way down this article -Not much about us - but what there is , is good

"For all defeat will be framed as disaster, this is just where Spurs are, even with Andy Robertson. Brentford finished eight places and 12 points ahead of them last season.
They are a serious football club, better run and more stable and with better players in most positions. They wouldn’t spend almost £300m and then start their season with a front three of Mikey Moore, Tel and Richarlison, while also naming their youngest captain in a competitive match ever in Archie Gray because the first four choices are all injured."

They had a guy who’s captained Liverpool & Scotland playing, surely an option?

Yes, these rational posts are hard to find on that forum as they have one of the most toxic, delusional online fanbases I've ever seen... But it does make for funny reading watching the melt down from about page 39 on there.


I also liked this one, Del and Rodney would be proud

The chap he's quoted might have amnesia. Not only have we beaten them before, they've been extremely lucky in their results against us in years gone by. We've also finished above them for 2 seasons running, could have been 3 in the last 4 if not for measley point over the course of that season (take the home game we were 2-0 up and they scumbagged a 2-2 draw for example). I sense 3 in a row come May.

Sunderland fans always have a thread for the TV games ,

Amazing football. Brentford look outstanding
Brentford play some outstanding football
I honestly thought they were f*cked when they appointed the set piece coach 🤣 as he was not long before. I think they could almost drop anyone in there it seems that well oiled behind the scenes.
Brentford are excellent. Bright, inventive attacking. Good recruiting but also Andrews is a surprisingly good coach.
Brentford are very good and will easily make Europe this season.
Brentford are a top team and play some quality stuff
Don’t mind admitting when Brentford appointed Keith Andrew’s I thought they’d be in trouble.

He’s done a brilliant job
Brentford aren't concerned about reputations, they just play football how it should be played...and to think some on here are piss flapping about us getting beat today!!🙄🙄🙄
It is hard to feel sorry for Spurs. Brentford look a good strong team again mind and most people (me too) had them finished off when Keith Andrew’s took over last year and he’s doing a great job.
Brentford getting Anthony from Burnley seems a bargain at £15m (£2m addons) after getting 9 goals and 4 assists last season
Gonna be one of our toughest games of the season Brentford in 2 weeks like f***ing hell they're v good

Spurs have just chucked huge money around randomly, why do these big clubs keep doing this and expecting different results?

This is exactly it.
#Teamslike Brighton, Brentford, Bournemouth do well because they have a system and just top it up each season.
The likes of United, Spurs, Newcastle change managers like their pants, chamge systems every season, change players every season and expect different results every season

Two very interesting things/amusing from Sky's Sunday Supplement

They highlighted Matt Barlow's intro to his Mail on Sunday report which includes my line of the weekend
Amid so much change, some things remain the same. And there is still nothing quite like a trip to Brentford in the Premier League to bring the lofty expectations of the self-appointed elite crashing back to earth.

And amongst their journalist's chat over the game and the reflections for both teams...., of all people in all of football, the odious Martin Samuel!! said this
Nothing would be greater than if Brentford finished top four...that would be fantastic, that would make the season for me
He also remarked on what a well run, smart club we are. I need a lie down after hearing that!

Miguel Delaney said in another era we should have been able to reach that level with a team this talented... but he thinks the mega spending clubs will have too much even in spite of all their own bad decisions, and will stop us.

Not sure how to clip a section.

Move to about 6:05…and enjoy.

I would LOVE IT for us to win the title, if only for the clip of them laughing at the idea to become massive. Bookmarked.

Here in NZ, Bees are 7th or 8th favourites for the title at 100/1. I don't gamble much but have had a cheeky $10. Villa and Spurs are both much shorter odds and we're way better than them and are probably on a par with Man Utd. Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool have all got new managers and are in transition of some form or another. Just leaves Arsenal as our main challengers.

It’s a weird look, for us non-US folk, that they’re all dressed like it’s a 1999 job interview.

The best ‘other’ fans in the Premier League, those Mackems. Hey Jude have played both their Wearside and London based branches. To a man they are great value, balanced in opinion and most importantly join in with the beers 🍻
