A Newbies View

[VTG]

For new fans like 'Burger' and myself, can any of you lot fill us in some of the club's history and culture? For instance:

Who are the Bee's arch enemies?Themselves
Can you name some legendary players/managers? Leroy Rosenior certainly has a legendary air about him...
Is there a club song/chant? "Help!"
When was the club's 'golden' age? 1935/36

Stuff like that.

Thanks

Hope that helps

By the way, I noticed that what must be a rather cheeky Bees fan has edited the wikipedia page on season 35/36 to show that we finished 5th. It looks completely out of place and is a right laugh until the wikipolice take it down

Wellcome all newcomers. Supported Bees since 1959 so seen ups and downs. Flirted with mid 60's Chelsea, but there's not the same atmosphere, camaraderie and fun as with BFC. Now in West Yorks so mainly see away games where support is small but often rousing and only seen us win so far this season, as opposed to losing all but one northern game last season. Its great being a Bees fun and my son loyal supporter sine Mascot away at Huddersfield play off semi. My daughters also supporters. Once a Bee always a Bee
best wishes and welcome

"Hey Jude" is a rock ballad written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon/McCartney) and recorded by The Beatles in 1968. Originally titled "Hey Jules", the song was written by McCartney to comfort John Lennon's son Julian during his parents' divorce. "

Nana - You forgot the Brentford song featuring Mr Bowles

What do you think?

I'd say not, but i had no reason to assume you were lying? I've also always wondered why we sing that.

Kinda like the new supporters on here, asking you genuine questions. Well done
