Division One here we come.

Was wondering if we could get people's views on how we are going to get promoted this season .. Whether it by winning our last 2 games. Or drawing at QPR and beating Reading. Or are there people out there who don't think we will go up or will via the play-offs and if so who will we play in them ?
Having said all that though, I'm all for Stevie Coppell's approach of taking each game at a time ;)

We will win Reading style at QPR, 3-1 tho ;) After being one nill down

And beat Reading, QPR sytle, 3-1 ;) Them getting a late consilation through Forster :)

Sorry, but I don't buy this we're going to get promoted lark. It's highly possible, but I ain't counting my chickens quite yet.

I'm confident that we could quite easily beat QPR (although they're one of the form teams), and then beat the pikeys on our backyard, but if anyone mentions bloomin' the 1991-2 season, and how this is so similar as to when we beat Fulham 4-0, WAKE UP, you're demented. It's like Spurs fans going on about the Year ending in "1". Get a grip. This team is not going to turn up at Loftus Road and win because a team, 10 years ago, thrashed the pants off Fulham.
The players will need some major motivating, and Coppell will need to do some serious thinking. It was 0-0 at our place earlier in the season, and QPR are stronger now.
We've got to keep it tight throughout the game, and we might nick a point. I fear that the Posh will not do us any favours, and we will have to raise our game again against the Gypos.
Whether our threadbare squad is capable of raising their game one last time against Reading is debatable. THey are hungry for success, but they are also probably knackered. Which is why I think that if we miss out on automatic promotion, we will be too tired for the play-offs.

For christ sake stop being so negative,

What you say may have some truth but it is that attitude that will make us lose.
If I believe 100% we can do it and we lose I will be no more disappointed then if we lose and I was being negative.

Just pull your socks up, believe it, cheer your head off and it might just happen. If it doesn't...well, I've beeen there before!!

I wasnt a Bees fan until March 1995, so dont blame me :)

I have been a Bees fan since 1977 & I have never had such faith in the team. We will go up. They are mentally strong, they are pulling together and we have the BEST manager in this Division.

Who would you rather have in charge Pardew who is cacking himself or Coppell who is so cool about it all.

First Division here we come. Steve Coppell is king.

Chicken counting is all that gets me through the days at the moment! :)

I'm gonna cry if we don't go up, whether I count the chickens or not. May as well be happy in the meantime.

No, it's the fact that I just tried to throw a piece of paper into a bin from 5 feet away with my eyes closed and staked everything promotion-related on it and missed, that's what'll make us lose. :(

Sorry, guys. It's my fault. :o

You all have permission to bend me over and use me as a toastrack.

I have been supporting Brentford since 1989 and only once have things gone right for me. I always seem to end on the losing side of things. The championship,. Relgation the season after, Knocked out in the playoffs by Huddersfield, Losing to Crewe in the final, Relegation to division 3, winning it the next year was not amazingly good.

So I think I am unlucky as far as Brentford are concerned

Reading will have a shock and lose, we will beat QPRRRR, draw with the asulikeys and gan on up! Its a shame QPRRRRRRRR still have the slightest of chances of making the playoffs after yesterdays draw!

Right back in February when it looked like nobody would catch Reading, I had a dream that it would all come down to the last game...

The boys have done so well and continue to look strong, so I can't see anything but two resounding wins for the bees!

Maybe Brighton, having already secured promotion, will sleep through their last two matches opening the door for the bees to snatch the championship from their grasp :-)

My God, what an attitude! If I was a player reading this it wouldn't exactly inspire me. Why are we the only ones who are knackered? Why has QPR got stronger and we haven't? Why would we fall in the playoffs and others won't?
You couldn't ask for a better string of results than this team has delivered over the past three months, could you?
If you are a supporter, well get on with it and support the frigging team. That's what they need, our wholehearted and unconditional support. Your chickens are irrelevant at this time whether you count them or not.
 

Division One here we come.

no pessimism from me!! We will beat both the scummers 4-0 with Marky Mark scoring all eight in total. He will then move at the end of the season for £12 million to Ajax (total football!) and Hounslow council will give us the permission (and the money) to build an 80,000 seater stadium. Oh, and Dave Webb falls under a bus!! ;)
 

Division One here we come.

I must say that I am far more relaxed this year than when we finished with 6 straight wins, I have far more faith in this team and manager.
Having said that I am down to the 2nd knuckle on 4 fingers.
Keep the faith

I opened my wardrobe door this morning,all my trousers were brown.....also........Maybe you should thank John Salako for scuffing his shot on Sunday in the 88 th minute......

Of course promotion is not a sure thing, of course there is a good chance that we will not achieve it. But the most important thing at the moment is that we stay positive. Coppell and all the players really believe that we can do it, and I think we must too. This is the best chance we will have of getting to Div 1 in the foreseeable future, let's not be negative!

I really hope even if we don't get automatic that everyone has just the same attitude about the playoffs. If the players sense that the fans don't really believe they can achieve promotion, what sort of effect do you think that will have on them?

COME ON YOU REDS!!!!
3 DAYS TIL QPHA!!!

What makes me sh*t it the most is that I don't think we'll go up if we only make the play-offs. Cardiff have got to be favourites for it for obvious reasons, and it'd be so hard to pick our boys up again if they missed out.
Saying all that, we could be alright, since I can't see us not beating Reading which in itself might be the tonic for any defeat at QPR to lift us for the play-offs.
God, this is tense.
I think I need therapy, or at least will do.

Up the Bees!

This is our year. The reason, all the sh*t off the pitch. We are going up and not via the ****ing playoffs.

Please all have faith :)

To California and Mhead Bees:

Where do you get off? Someone asked my opinion and I gave it. Don't f*cking question whether I'm a supporter or not. If you wanted this to be a positive thread about geeing up the players, then the original post would have asked for that. Incidentally, if anyone starts telling me how negative I am, just have a look to see if your name is on the thread that I asked as many people to post on for a message of support to the players. I had f all responses (thanks to those who did), when I thought we could get something like 500 replies to it, and it could be printed off and shown to the players.

I put forward a realistic opinion of our situation. You might not agree with it, but I'm still incredibly positive about the whole situation, I go to games and shout my head off, but I'm entitled to have an opinion about the situation.
I send off e-mails to the club all the time to show my support, I post here and on Beesotted, and most of the people who know me will tell you that Iam very positive, but also realistic. Why am I wrong to believe that our confidence is a little over-stated? It's a messageboard for crying out loud? It's not Griffin Park, and it's not the end of the world. Get a grip.

Calm down chaps. We may have differing opinions, but we are here for one thing and one thing only. To see the best team we have fielded in my memory take their deserved place in Division One.

Bring 'em on, give 100% to Sir Steve and the team, WE ARE GOING UP!
