Get a grip.....

I'm with you Jockbee. I've seen every play-off cock-up and near miss for 40 years so this isn't knee-jerk. Someone posted Rudyard Kipling in another thread:

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same

We're still in it for gawd's sake. Get a grip and we'll go up... and then we'll laugh all the more about it's Brentford innit :sorted:
 

Get a grip.....

Ok, I'm depressed at the moment.

But we will win the play-offs :)
 

Get a grip.....

See you all at Wembley......:wave:...YOU REDS....
Every Bees fan has a right to mourn this weekend. So with respect, you are too early with the PMA stuff! From Monday, we can dust ourselves down for the promotion fight! But for now, we collectively grieve and curse our bad luck!
 

Get a grip.....

Think it will be to hard to lift the players now. If it had been draw or standard defeat then I would have been fairly sanguine about our chances but having had glory snatched away I think it's now a step to far
 

Get a grip.....

when's the play off final? I'm due a trip home....
 

Get a grip.....

What is a loan player doing taking such an important penalty, when Mr. Brentford (our seasoned penalty taker) is on the pitch? Massive cock-up.
We're left behind while Marcello trotts off.

Life's like that and today it wasn't meant to be. No point in recriminations or analysis. It's rare in life to get a second chance but that is exactly what we've got. It's up to us to send in the positive vibes. Battle lost , war there to be won.

Listening to Uwe on the bees player interview after the game if seems Kev was supposed to take it and he was disappointed that didn't happen -Don't blame Uwe for stuffing up - Why Kev had a go at him after the event is unknown ???
 

Get a grip.....

Screw getting a grip.

Yes I'm still confident this will be our season and I do fancy our chances in the play offs BUT today hurts.

I'll have a small bet you're wrong Mr. Pipe. If I wanted to motivate the boys I'd just show them the video of Donny cavorting on our pitch and the Welsh jockey bigging it up after managing donkeys like that to promotion. What does Fergie put ManU's success this season down to... the feeling of losing in the last minute. We're the best team of the four left in by a mile.
 

Get a grip.....

Should've won today.
If Trotta had stuck to the pre match arrangement,
Kev would've scored the penalty.
 

Get a grip.....

Too early, the wound too fresh to be telling people to get a grip. Some of us have seen it too many times. And today, even by Bees standards was astonishing, unbelievable.

But we ARE the best team in the p/o's. But it s a lottery. And can the players get their heads back in time......only time will tell.

Like your style, won't take the bet as hope you are right and certainly as I have driven home my thoughts are turning to our second chance. As I put somewhere else we started 3rd today and ended the 3rd best team in the league. The rest should be fearing us
 

Get a grip.....

What's our Swindon allocation ? Best we can do is get behind 'em once more. A lacklustre away following will see our play offs hopes go almost certainly.
 

Get a grip.....

Different manager, different players, same sh!t , gonna take a lot to get the players up after this :sad:

Doncaster have shown there's more to getting out of this division than being a good side. Maybe our lot need a bit more gamesmanship, guile and brute strength.

Seen it too many times have you.....

Kev is the captain why the **** didn't he chuck him off the ball?..this was our chance we've no hope in the play offs, fans and players won't be able to pick themselves up after they

Like the positive post.....
 

Get a grip.....

Everybody is going on about the penalty. The fact is we started the match having to score to win and in 90 minutes we didn't. That's the real problem not someone missing a penalty.
 

Get a grip.....

yes but you get the big chance and blow it.forget positive thinking etc.....I feel like topping myself right now
 

Get a grip.....

Trotta knew wot the the command was.
Kev should take the penalty FACT

As Bobby Ross said...ex Bees player..BTW....our forwards were poor....he also said that you must look into the players eyes...and see if they still have the desire....

Ex Shrewsbury wasn't he? If only we had him and Regan now.
 

Get a grip.....

I am devastated and can't believe that we have found an even more extreme way of failing but...... We are the best team in the play offs and have nothing to fear! Teams will have to attack us and that is when we are at our best.

Get a draw against Swine away and we will go up... Let's do this!!

Sorry mate don't agree. Yes we didn't play well. That one kick would have taken this club up to the Championship a defining moment in the Owners investment, the Managers and players hard work over the season. Also, last but by now means least. Us the fans, who have supported this team some for many years. Uwe has said on Beesworld that the team orders were for KOC to take it. I hope Mr Trotta is now on the bus back to Fulham and Hayes is recalled. I still believe we have a chance and am glad we have not drawn Yeovil over the two legs. Well done to Doncaster who did what they had to do............... just wish we had!!
 

Get a grip.....

Forshaw must start in POs. We only really started to play after he came on. BWP needs better service than he got today and Forshaw is the man to provide it

I think missing the penalty is the real problem, given that had we scored it we'd now be a Championship club.
 

Get a grip.....

Listening to the manager Trotta will remain with us as quote " he still has an important part to play"

Will be difficult to lift both players and supporters but, like many have been here before and can only continue hoping that success will come within my life time

And a awful lot of luck!
 

Get a grip.....

I hope the players can lift themselves up from this heartache yes its that bad I had to console a grown man who was in tears today, I never want to be in that position again. I really don't want to watch us in the playoffs as i've been there too many times before. Some stupid thought in my head is telling me to go to the Swindon games. I am very much lost at the moment as most of you probably are :(

Personally I would have sent him back after the MK game as I thought his performance was a disgrace. Can't believe we're sticking with him after what happened today.

Yes I agree. In truth the team Uwe started with today is what I'd have gone with but Forrester is just not at the races at the moment
 

Get a grip.....

I feel your pains bros

Heartbroken :(

If we had done that we wouldn't have had a chance at automatic promotion, he missed a penalty it happens the things that makes in harder is that it was missed after to farce that occurred before it was taken!!
 

Get a grip.....

Just got back and I want to be upbeat it was a long 2 hour journey back to leicester, I feel absolutely stunned! How we are not a championship club is beyond me!

I don't have much hope with the play offs , but you never know boys are out on their feet!
 

Get a grip.....

lo ls what's gey about a consolatory bro-hug ? :)

All the hype surrounding Forester made him believe he's too good for this league, well the truth is he ain't. I would have preferred to have seen Sam start.
 

Get a grip.....

At the very worst at least we could look forward to pissing all over Wolves next season. At best QPR ???????
 

Get a grip.....

I could go on now about missed penalty and why NOBODY figured out that their effing keeper is old as f**k and all it was needed was for someone to place it neatly into ANY effing corner, but the truth is I can't wait for play offs and I will be there for return leg. (am also very drunk)

COME ON YOU BEES!
 

Get a grip.....

Just got home after a nice 400+ mile round trip. Gutted as everyone else but over the 25+ years of supporting Brentford, you start to become sort of battle hardened to these sort of things. The football gods weren't smiling on us and Donny came and did a job on us what with the slow play, niggly fouls etc. The team needs us now more than ever to remain positive and support them through the play-offs. We are not the 3rd best team in the division after 46 games for nothing. We all need to lick our wounds and get drunk etc (or whatever takes your fancy) however we have a week to get a positive outlook and get behind the lads for a 3 game shoot out. Finger pointing and blaming can be done once the season is fully over however for now let's get behind them and make sure that as the 12th man, we help them over the line and can look forward to Championship football next season.

Right, I am off to drown my sorrows then look forward to going again next weekend
