Of course i'll be going. But, when i stand by my seat before the game, I just know we are going to lose. Its in brentford blood. The only time we can hack it for the big occasion is when we're in div 3 (peterborough, cambridge)
come on, back me up here peeps, we know we arent going up, all we needed was a win against reading, we knew we werent gonna get it. it'll just never happen for us on one single match. Sure we can go up automtically like brighton cuz we have the quality to do so, but when its left to one match, the oppo fans always go away smiling, tis unfair.
Below is the 1st Division (now Premier) league table the year I was born, Brentford were 5th and the best in London. We have had our share of ups and downs over the years since then. Getting promoted from Division Two(3) is fantastic but it is not the dizziest height we will have scaled.
Here's a proposition for you: Make a solemn promise that you will switch to supporting QPR or Leyton Orient if Brentford wins promotion.
That way, your self-fulfilling prophecies of impending doom will ensure that when the inevitable catastrophe befalls you and you wind up at Loftus or Brisbane Road, the rest of us will be enjoying the balmy waters of the First Division.

Well, theres our next game on wednesday, all we need is a win, and after our 3-0 thrashing last time, i'm sure we can do it...but cardiff at cardiff is gonna be v v v v tough. But hey, who cares! We will win!! And yes i realise that is just a tad contradictory to my first comments, but hey i may aswell be positive, and also get u moody lot off my backs! 
this squad is made of sterner stuff, but we'll see eh?
