Hi all - in case of interest, I've recently launched a free Brentford Substack, where I try to take a thoughtful look at the Bees and the world of football. Hopefully, it adds a little to the conversation, building on the great work of the few out there writing about Brentford in the wider...

Will be there next Saturday and wondering if there are any Bees in KL who know where to watch the game. Let me know.

Any Bees in Hong Kong this Friday up for watching the game?

Any Bees in China/Hong Kong? I'm currently in Guangzhou studying Mandarin before moving to HK to start a new job in May. Feverishly trying to find a bar in Guangzhou that will be showing next weeknd's game.

Who is else is returning to blighty for the big match? I'm flying back from Jakarta.

I've heard rumours of a "Jakarta Bees" Indonesia flag appearing at previous games. Any Bees in Jakarta up for watching the game today?

GPG admins: please remove the Walsall FA Cup 2nd round tie from the fixture list asafp. I fear that such hubris may jeopardise our chances of success this evening.

I understand from usually reliable sources that the BFC board (or certain member(s) thereof) are currently letting it be known in the football world that they are looking for a new permanent chief executive. Salary is in the order of £40,000-£50,000 pa and I understand they want someone who is...

There's a good interview in The Herald where Butcher says the playing budget for next season is £1 million, with which he has to fund 22 players. Is he correct in this? If so, should he really be releasing this information publicly in this fashion -i .e. mouthing off to newspapers instead of it...

But unfortunately it's nothing to do with footballers... See below from a Guardian article on the latest gaggle of teenage bands. It's interesting to see our wider "community" initiatives actually getting some coverage: http://music.guardian.co.uk/rock/story/0,,1993353,00.html "The teenage...

Remember Steve Jones? Joined us on loan for a while and was a complete donkey despite some promising pedigree. Seems he's fallen on hard times - he's living on the dole in Essex, struggling to afford Christmas presents for his kids and has been reduced to selling his old Bournemouth shirts on...

Anyone want to resurrect City Bees?:fishing:

Kiss My Badge can exclusively reveal that the international friendly between South Africa and Egypt, which is due to take place at Griffin Park on November 15, is in doubt. For more see here: http://kissmybadge.blogsome.com

Kiss My Badge is now back in action after a far too lengthy break and is promising to outdo Winston Bee by establishing itself as the most regularly updated Brentford blog...

Why don't BFC hedge out the risk of potential relegation by putting a large bet on us to go down? These days even small companies hedge out risks they can't control. In fact, you could argue that hedging is even more vital for small businesses that can't afford to soak up the losses accruing...

Does anyone else get the feeling there's something very naive about our financial management of transfers? There are many selling clubs at this level and most of them seem to be much shrewder than our management. We seem to be being squeezed at both ends, getting lowish fees for the players we...

There's a new Brentford blog up and running to keep you entertained over the close season and beyond. It's called Kiss My Badge Feel free to read, enjoy and comment.

Released by Swansea. Probably out of our wage range but would be a good replacement for Brooker if we can off-load him. He's always looked dangerous against us for Swansea (when he's played) and Luton.

Ken Bates might not be the most likeable of chaps but at least he knows a thing or two about how to draw up a budget: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_div_1/4773307.stm Bates added: "The worst case scenario is that we will walk away with £1.3m and that will be going on ground...
