Was always going to end sometime, the run we were on was fantastic, when we lost at MK and on Tuesday where we missed an open goal and a penalty in the last minute you can't complain about the performance, we were obviously well beaten today and I assume some people are going to point out to the fact that it's NF's first game as "permanent" manager, but he knows more than anyone that he's still effectively on an extended trial period. I don't see how anyone can seriously say it was the wrong decision - Two weeks ago I thought we'd be crazy to put him in charge for the end of the season but putting him in, but he's seen us move comfortably clear of the relegation zone and it would be damaging for morale if we'd put someone else in charge and Nicky back in the squad.

I didn't see any smillies that went with it

I was smiling on the inside.

some over reaction posts, one bad game after a good run, its now see if we can turn it around on Tuesday!

Sounds like square pegs in round holes to me. 3-0 sounds one sided to me. King Kev is not a RB though.

AND he's not a midfielder. I know it was the previous "manager" who gave him a new 2 year contrat, what I would like to know is who sanctioned this crazy decision ?
Perhaps one of the Bees United directors would like to comment ?

 

[Brentford 4 Life]

and you can get alot out of average players

take note look at bournemoutrh,brighton all average but the manager makes the diffrence between playing average or playing beterlike ive said forster is still a player whos got more to give on the field rather than off it at the current time

in 3 years maybe he will make a good manger once hes proven hes self at a lower level like

This isnt true. Brighton have spent heavily and have a very good squad and Bournemouth although havent spent anyhting have got a good squad who play good footy. They deserve to be where they are it hasnt been motivation alone that has got them there it is ability.

I'm sure we can beat Brighton IF NF picks our BEST starting eleven, and that should include Balkestein and Grabban............

why was it crazy? KOC was probably one of the only players who continued to play through the poor months of AS. KOC can play RB or CM. He's had some good games recently, got injured, came back and has been at RB and CM, he is a solid professional footballer.

so tthe Notts county game was good then ?

Well it's all about opinion. OK he can play at RB and CM but not at the level required. Yes he's solid professional footballer, but if you think he's our future until 2013 that's your opinion but I disagree.

 

[Voice from the Braemar]

we were far better with koc at full back.....he's just NOT good enough in midfield anymore.....time to be put out to grass im afraid......we cant allow passengers in this team just because they are popular with management and fans for being nice

 

[love and mercy]

we keep going backwards ...how many times have we put Kev at full back ?
Could have told you 6 years ago he was no good there.

 

[LingfieldBee]

Yeah we dominated the whole game, saw more passing in that game than the whole season under AS, we just lacked a cutting edge on the final third, lacked the killer ball, and no one really wanted to shoot seemed to want to pass it in. So yeah Notts county game was good. Little improvement and we're be a lot better. Not as if NF cant turn everything around asap! Already a big improvement from the style and how we played under AS. NF was never going to turn it around drastically so that we challenge play offs but im 100% confident we're finish a safe mid table.
Everyone seems to expect miracles! support the ****ing team for godsake!

 

[wayfarer172]

Been saying it for ages O'connor is not good enough at full back or centre midfield.
Why we have given him another 2 years i dont know!?

Funny, since KOC has returned from injury we have dropped 5 pts out of 6. He should be moved on to Wycombe Wanderers now where the rest of the Brentford rejects finish up.

 

[Bridge Bee]

Didn't go so can only base my thoughts on the match stats and Nicky's comments on the official site. Seems like we failed to compete physically, but after 6 great games (in comparison to what went before) it's probably the reality check we all needed. At the end of the day the same group of players have gone from negative, don't express yourself hoofball to possession, must express yourself keep-ball. There were always going to be days like this along the way. At the moment we're exactly where we deserve to be, mid table.

Surprised that either Legge or Pim didn't play - it was always going to be the sort of game where we'd have to mix it rather than turn up and expect them to allow us to play possession football. Creativity obviously still a problem as is a lack of pace up front, but Nicky can only work with what he's inherited.

Looking forward to Tuesday, reckon we'll win.

 

[marlowbee]

Real test for Nicky now, we really need a new striker quick

According to NF we dont need any more strikers!
