Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Around a month ago after a press conference Uwe chatted to me about how the season would pan out.
He told me had a dream of walking his team out at the wide open spaces of Wembley where they could play their footballing game to maximum effect.
I raised my eyebrows and questioned him, asking whether he wouldn't rather go up as one of the top two.
He said yes he'd obviously prefer automatic but his eyes were on fire as he talked of Wembley
Given today's heartache let's all mourn for day or two, have a few glasses of beer or wine, spend some time with loved ones who matter most and then regroup on Tuesday ready to play our part in making Uwe's vision a reality
We are the best footballing side in the play offs and have a side young enough

Really?right now I think he can shove that up his arse
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Nice words Jim. It's tough really tough to deal with.
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Hmmmm. - You know what - winning at Wembley in front of 30,000 Bees fans does seem rather good !

divide that number by 2 and you will still have 5k more than we will take.

At this very moment in time the thought of going to another playoff final does not appeal to me what so ever, but if we do beat Swindon then I would be there.
Uwe may of made some mistakes this season but he got us a crossbar away from Championship football, if we got to Wembley then I would hope he plays the 'pass them to death' tactics instead of panic ball.

A nice positive thread to finish a lousy day... Jim, can you ask Uwe to play it on the ground v. Swindon as well as at Wembley, please ;)

I'm afraid that's close to the truth. There is only so much disappointment one set of supporters can expect to take before saying enough is enough. A list;

Wigan
Tranmere
Huddersfield
Crewe
Swansea
Sheffield Wednesday
Stoke
Port Vale
Reading
Carlisle
Doncaster

Is that everything? I've been there for each and every one ,as have many others. At some point people just call it a day. There were 12,300 there today. How many will say 'Same old Brentford' and not come again? Failure at the final hurdle is an occupational hazard of being a football supporter. But not every single time.

I love this thought, but I can't help but feel it isn't our year again.

And yet we took 25,000 for a pretty meaningless trophy final. I think if we took 10,000 then people would seriously need to look at their priorities.
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Judging by his decison to leave his best player (Forshaw) out today he obviously had one eye on Wembley.

I've already booked the 19th off work... Got told the result (within minutes) and said if true, I want the 19th off...

PMA folks!!!

Thanks Jim I will sleep on that one, deflated at the moment

There was a reason as to why.
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Forshaw was nursing a knock AFAIK.

If he was then fair enough, but he looked pretty sharp and seemed to create a lot more space/chances for us when he came off the bench.

Why us clubs up n down the league must laugh at us ....i really cant bear it my own 13 yr daughter said dad do u think we will ever do it .....whats that saying my 5 yr old girls wants to come im due a boy in june jesus can i put them through it all
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

uwe's dream aye, well what about my dream , and the fella standing next to me, what about " passing them to death ", what about turning up when it counts, and taking the chances when given to you, like others ive travelled up and down the country all season with a dream, im fed up with these nightmares :(
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Nice vision Uwe but I'm afraid 'Dream' is the keyword.

Brentford and Wembley just don't mix, that's even if we get that far.

Sorry to be a downer but let's face it, we've blown it again.
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

Its not often in life you get a second chance so quicly to put things right......so let's get into swindon and feck the play offs up the arse...cos we are Brentford and this time its gonna happen. COME ON YOU REDS !

With you there fella, don't know if I can muster the effort for another round of let's cock up the play offs.

Birmingham City Southern Area Final.2-1 down lost 1-0 2nd leg.

Derby County Anglo Italian Cup 3-4 3-2 away goals.

Just more than what you think/remember.
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

What about all the random ****ing hoofballs we seem to play whenever we get under pressure? Will Wembley's pitch suddenly make the football better in those situations? Will Moore stop randomly hoofing it at any direction Donaldson is in?

Losing at Bristol City in 93 and Birmingham in 95 felt a lot worse than some of those

I am sure we beat derby 2-1 with Blisset getting both away ;)

It can't have been easy but UR mentioned that very fact in the BBC radio interview. He did very nearly
Get a hand to their goal though.

Yeah -- but don't forget all those times we have performed:

Peterborough
 

Uwe's Dream of Winning at Wembley

I fancy us to play blistering football against Swindon and look the business and score goals for fun. Then when we play at wembley we revert back to hoofball. I can't take any more of this false hope. I will watch it on the TV and at least when we lose again I can just turn the TV over and try to forget about it.
