tHE Best way to remember Brian is on a Saturday afternoon anywhere in the country supporting the bees through thick and thin whether it was raining,snowing or a hot day he would be there. Even if it meant a long trip to places like Workington, Barrow etc or a London Derby you would find him either on a train or coach or sometimes in a car determined to miss any of the action he never moaned if they lost said he was just glad to be there shouting his heros on.

A true Brentford fan who would always be at games hours before the kick off and having been in his, and Johnny Gough's, company for many of my early years it is sad to say goodbye to yet another of the "family" that is Brentford. - R.I.P. Brian.

With Mike Andrews and Tony Ross also passing recently it makes you realise just how short a time we have on this earth and how precious that time is especially when the people concerned are close to you personally. My thoughts are with them tonight.

Have to agree, he was just one of those regular faces you always saw. Another legend gone from us.
RIP Brian and condolences to those close to him.

Anyone got a picture? I know the name..

RIP Fella - too many Bees fans going.

 

[daddybee]

Really sorry to hear this, like many others I used to travel on the Tony Ewers Express back in the early 70s. I''ve seen Brian here, there and everywhere for the 40 years since and often had a chat to him, he was a really nice bloke.
RIP Brian and condolences to his family and friends.

 

[HertfordBee]

I've known Brian since back in the late 1970's and he was a regular at games home and away, first-team, reserves, etc. A real character in his own quiet way and loyal to the core. A sad loss. RIP.

 

[A_BEE_SINCE_63]

Very sad news that another character, who was well known to us of a certain age, has passed on.

RIP Brian.

 

[Northwestsbuzzinbee]

Really sad new's i din't know him but im sure he could see us on the up .rip tho

 

[Nick Hester]

Jesus, yes I do know him... RIP

 

[rebus]

Very sad to hear this news.

Brian was a bloody lovely bloke whose only worry in life was whether we would win on a Saturday.

I can picture him now outside the main gates of Griffin Park, sniffing out the gossip.

A genuine character and one that will be sorely missed.

RIP Brian. Another of the Brentford old school gone.

 

[Nick Hester]

Was 'always' the very first person to buy our fanzine... used to pester me as soon as we arrived, wouldn't even be able to get my bag down before he was on my back for a copy.

Eccentric and odd but a lovely fella who lived for The Bees.

I heard he'd been ill but didn't know to what extent.

 

[nick logan]

Gah i know who you mean now. Used to go on trains oop north with him and a few others when i was a young lad.

RIP Brian, true Bee

 

[bobwin out of town bee]

we always had a chat outside the ground. was told on sat that he had not been well but did not know the extent of his illness
RIP Brian another true bee gone

 

[Bee49]

When you get a really true supporter like Brian who dedicated his life to following the Bees and many of you guys who do the same, I'm sure.
Wouldn't it be nice if an article on Brian could find it's way or be written for the programme just to appreciate his loyality to the Bees.
It would be acknowledgement of his time and trouble he no doubt gave without a thought.
If you knew him well, some contributions or stories with PG's help it could be done.
RIP Brian.

 

[DavidgRushden]

Didn't know him, but sincere condolences to his family. RIP.

 

[teesbee]

Condolences to Brian's family. I always wish that people who were close would post a picture, because I bet everyone knows faces even if they don't know names. In fact wouldn't it be nice to have a 'wall' of pictures of the Eternal Bees somewhere on here? Don't know if that's possible.

 

[braunton bee]

Rip brian

 

[absenteebee]

Didn't know him but hey, Cheers Brian.

 

[Debbee]

Hope you're smiling down tonight with the rest of the Bees faithful sadly missed.

 

[West Wilts Bee]
