Bees v Wolves...updates....

[beetee]

3 nil really not good enough in a big game like this at home

 

[BeeSinceBirth]

Will be interesting to see how Warburton will deal with the team after today, a real test of his skills to get us back in the points against Carlisle

 

[peebees]

Same old Bees "Big game" can't hack........lucky socks consigned to bin !!

 

[clad1]

The wheels have come off

Not come off. Only got a puncture.

 

[Humblebee]

The next few games will be a real test of Warbs and Weir. Hope today was just a blip.

 

[teesbee]

I know we're all disappointed, and I'm particularly gutted to lose to this bunch of arrogant yakkers, but let's try to keep some sort of perspective? This team needs support, not kneejerk criticism.

 

[Bangor Bee]

Depressing, especially after such a good display last week. But it reinforces what I felt then: we give teams too many chances even when we dominate possession. There may be a case for giving Tarkowski a game: after all, he is widely regarded as one of the best young defenders in the division and would certainly add an extra dimension coming forward.

 

[kojebee]

Well beaten today. Wolves a notch above us. Worrying that we've lost at home to Orient and Wolves this season. Hope the play offs don't beckon.

 

[RANCHO MIRAGE BEE]

Rotherham now winning 2-1 not a good day for the Bees after 4 months of wonderful results.Still plenty of points to play for.

 

[Bungy Bee]

Ah well....Carlisle next week folks....

 

[Friji]

Not a great display but thankfully nothing is decided from today's result so onwards and upwards!

 

[bexleybee]

Can't complain about the result

 

[Ben04uk]

Doncaster, Yeovil, Carlisle, and add to that wolves we never turn up when it really matters

Add Wigan in the Freight Rover, Crewe in the Play-Offs, Port Vale and Stoke at Cardiff, Reading at home last game of the season.

 

[Humblebee]

Top 6 all won today except us. Ah well, time to start another unbeaten run until the end of the season.

 

[jonny c]

Ah well....Carlisle next week folks....

Spot on. Lost to another good team, it's a shame but let's use it to refocus and start another long unbeaten run. One defeat should not signal an overhaul or change in mentality.

 

[To Bee Someone]

Freak game. 3-0 flattered them. And the behaviour of some of their personnel in the dugouts makes me wish them ill fortune. I don't mind being beaten, its football but at least win with at least a hint of class.

That said, brush this under the carpet and go again. This isnt over

 

[Al Watson]

Ah well, time to start another unbeaten run until the end of the season

Precisely! Wolves can take today. We'll take the season.

 

[clad1]

Unfortunately pitch was not good, many players sounded off the pace and the ref seemed to have been born and raised in Wolverhampton. Very difficult to fight against those things. I also think Warbs should have made subs earlier but lets start another run from next week. Many games still to go.

 

[brooks]

When Charlton ran away with the division they lost 4-2 at home to Notts County beginning of March. It didn't stop them and it won't stop us.

 

[jacksonbfc]

Goldbourne is a ****! End of

 

[Weststand Bee]

The run was always going to end sometime and unfortunately, it was today. Lets not over react, we have been on one hell of a run and everything went against us today with results elsewhere. We have a great side and they will get back to winning ways. Wolves have to play Orient and there are some big games between now and the end of the season. Points will be gained and dropped. Will we make it - my head and heart says yes this time. Up the BEES!

 

[beenthere]

Oh well. Sure we all feel a bit deflated after that. Hope that that if nothing else, some lessons were learnt. By the players, the staff, and also some of the more complacent posters on here.
Nothing positive, or negative, is decided yet.
That said 19 games unbeaten had to come to an end sometime and all teams lose sooner or later. etc.etc.
Personally think we have enough potential to still go up automatically, but obviously that potential needs to translate into results. Only time and several weeks of nervous expectation will tell.
That's why we follow the Bees, after all. New Brentford or Old Brentford, it's the love of it that matters.
Let's hope we get back on track next week. Thanks for the updates.

 

[cromerbee]

So disappointed . Long journey home. I hate Wolves. So arrogant but think they will take this league now. For us, we have to climb back on board and hope the O's slip up as well as Preston halt the charge. Feel bit negative tonight for first time in ages . bollx

 

[mundee4england]

Beaten by a better team, they weren't stretched by us in their third at all. Forget about it and move on....

 

[Hullbee]

Brentford DNA to bottle big games and not turn up

 

[brooks]

Brentford DNA to bottle big games and not turn up

Daftest thing I've read all afternoon.

 

[newarkbee]

Perfect away performance, gave nothing away and scored on the break. A lot of luck involved in the first goal and that was the catalyst for how the game panned out. We tried to play football and gave a.100% so no.complaints from me. Let's dust ourseleves down and get on with winning this league

 

[grutter]

Christ, we just lost one game. What's the point in digging up games we lost in previous seasons - they have nothing to do with today? Before today, we needed 8 more wins to finish top two. We still need 8 more wins, have 15 games to get them and are 1 point off the top of the table, with 2 games in hand against Orient. We didn't deserve to win today and have just come of the best run in the league the club's ever had. Disappointing though a home hammering is, we've got the players that got us in this position and they'll get us over the line.

 

[TuckerBee]

Thanks to the 4k extra fans you made f all difference to the atmosphere... give me 6k regulars on Tuesday night all day long ...

We got turned over today by a solid wolves team the officials were a disgrace today ..

But we didn't turn up .. Disappointed

 

[To Bee Someone]

Wolves will lose a game like we did today. Im sure of that. Just one of those days. All teams have them

 

[Travel Tavern Bee]

Jesus Kicking off at the station....Bees fan appeared out of nowhere loaded up with pint glasses and launched them at Wolves fans.....OB clueless.

 

[opinions5u]

Perfect away performance, gave nothing away and scored on the break.

Exactly what they did at Boundary Park.

Solid defensively but got six or seven players forwards at pace when they came out of defence.

As good a performance as I've seen this season and it sounds like they've done the same job on you.

 

[Guildford Bee]

If that game had been played on a Tuesday night in front of 7k we would've won.

 

[mundee4england]

If that game had been played on a Tuesday night in front of 7k we would've won.

No we wouldn't.

 

[Buzzettesfriend]

We had no luck today but Wolves I thought did a good job on us. Preston play Rotherham on Tuesday night so that will either dent Preston's charge or kill Rotherham off (draw would be ideal.) We need to get 2 more points from 15 games than Orient get from 13. If we don't do that we won't deserve to go up, but I genuinely believe we will do it this time around.

 

[bexleybee]

Sadly the big games bring out the dregs from within the fan base

 

[Hullbee]

No we wouldn't.

Agree Jesus we have some clowns on here

 

[ade211]

I, like of lot of others I guessed, felt the first goal would be decisive. I didn't have a clear view of their goal but by what those were saying around me an element of fortune was involved. After that we chased the game. Things didn't quite run for us. And they hit us quite easily with two more. I admire Warburton's desire to keep pressing forward. I think Rosler would not have done this. He would have waited longer before doing so. We would probably still lost but by only one goal or perhaps two.

On a very difficult pitch we kept trying to pass. Impressive. Very few aimless punts up field. A small criticism that I am sure he is aware of is that at corners we never look like scoring. Needs to have a think about some variations.

Overall I felt the team gave everything. And kept trying to play our way. Wolves are a strong side and today got the break. On another day it could be us. Long way to go still before end if season with many twists and turns on the way.

Heads up everyone for our next few games as we could easily slip again before we stabilise.

Sadly, the facts back it up with no exceptions to rule, other than when we beat Cambridge to win micky mouse Div 3 in 98/99

 

[Hullbee]

Thank you for your support

And when we beat Darlington to win League 2?

 

[Bigruss]

And when we beat Darlington to win League 2?

And when we beat Peterborough the last time we were promoted to the 2nd tier.

 

[eaglebee]

Just back, disappointing game, we played some nice passing football at times, but it didn't get us anywhere, it all broke down and came to nothing except a few long range shots, they played direct and only had a few chances but scored from 3 of them, I thought our defence was poor today by our usual standards, our magnificent run had to come to an end sometime, today was that day.

Still it’s not the end of the world our first defeat since October 12th, we are in 3rd place with games in hand, we will come back from this minor setback.

 

[wanderer paul]

And when we beat Darlington to win League 2?

Peterborough away too. Oh and Fulham at home. Everton at home. Man City at home. Blackburn away. We could go on.

To say 'we don't turn up' is bullshit. We had an off day. We had a lot of the ball but didn't have that quality to create chances. Wolves had the luck for the first, Button slow for the second but a good finish for the third. sh*t happens. Dust ourselves down and get up to Carlisle and get the 3 points. 15 games to go. Still in our own hands.

 

[brierley hill wolf]

No need to feel negative cromerbee you are still in a great position to go up one defeat in February means nothing nothings won or lost now.
Not all Wolves fans are arrogant believe me, there were posts yesterday saying the like of "wolves should walk this league on there budget" and they are arrogant, well yes on our budget we should be walking this league they were right, there lies the problem, its not arrogance its expectation, when your players get paid in excess of twenty grand a week you expect them to perform to the best of their ability every week, wolves have no divine right to beat anyone and you have been brilliant this season and hopefully this is just a blip and you go another unbeaten run, DONT FEEL NEGATIVE ENJOY THE REST OF THE SEASON KEEP THE FAITH

Good post, just make sure you beat that little East London side when you meet them in a few weeks time...

 

[BedfontRed]

Wolves did there homework and were easily the better side. Didn't help playing against 14 men though. The ref was a disgrace. First half not to bad but the second we were awful and could not get going

 

[clad1]

That refereeing display epitomises why referees in general and the FA are held in such poor regard by fans across the country.
