Only 3 more sleeps!
Walking down Hamilton Road light breeze,scudding clouds, NR turnstile squeeze,bright green pitch music blaring out, anxious glancing at programme without reading it,look around - some new faces but plenty of old one's, comfortingly familiar feel ,players all over pitch warming up,closely studying the newcomers, players move by Ealing Road terraceand Ealing Road reacts, team announced Button, McCormack, Dean, BBjelland, Bidders, KK, Toums,Judgey, Gogia, Jota,Grey(big cheers), PG getting over excited,cue music,kids with flags , MD walks across the pitch and claps ER ,out they come , the drama commences..........
What's not to like! COYB

Fresh crop of barmaids in The Globe..

Great thread and it hit home for me when I read this on the Brenrford Facebook page.

On this day in 2006 Jo Kuffour made his debut in a 1-0 victory over Blackpool at Griffin Park.
Oli Skulason scored the only goal in the victory over The Seasiders which also saw Matt Heywood, Clarke Masters, Thomas Pinault and Gavin Tomlin made their debuts.
Jo would prove to be the high-point of the season with his 14 goals as Brentford dropped out of League One finishing bottom of the table.

This is my first game in 20 months as I moved away and you will not be getting any negative comments about our transfers from me. The most notable absence for me on Saturday will be the Royal Oak!

 

[BYOBee]

How's about this for an epic positive!!

The possibility of actually scoring from set pieces.

 

[banburybee]

Reading the comments from KK really brought home to me how picky and negative some of the comments that are circulating at the moment
'Oh we need 1 of these and 2 of those types of player'
'he's a big loss'
' he's an even bigger loss'
'oh if he goes we've had it'
'The new player X is unproven'
'he did not play well at Norwich so he is *****'
He cannot replace XYZ'
'Got to get a load more new players(I have not seen the current lot yet but we need loads more)
'Not many English 'proven' players have been bought'
'I'm not ITK so that makes me sad'
'I have a bad feeling about the new season'
etc
etc
The new crop of young exciting players joined our existing crop of exciting young players because they buy into the dream we all share. They deserve our support and belief. Putting an atmosphere of negativity ,suspicion and distrust in place will permeate to the players.Last season we played best when the crowd really got behind the team and gave them belief Derby at home, Forest away, Fulham home and Away, Norwich Home and Away. These new guys should not be asked to prove themselves before earning our support. They are our players , our team and I love em. F*** JD and SD and any other ex players, they left and now wear another shirt now so they are dead to me. COYB

... and for those who've missed it:

My best position is as a box to box midfielder. I like to run a lot in the game and set up goals as well as scoring a few. I have a good pass between defenders. I'm a team player and I want the best for my team. I coach my team-mates as well. Those are my main points as a player.

I hear you. My little hissy fit has now ended, I was a bit raw this morning, and I'm looking forward to brentford fc progressing once again. We're still lucky to have an owner who pays out millions on players and then cashes in on them at the right time to help fund the season ahead.

I don't understand why all the gnashing of teeth. The BCFC three wanted to go. It actually doesn't matter how good they were. Once they'd made their decision, they were never going to perform at the highest level for us ever again. So for me, it's good they've gone. The Club can now work with those they've got until the cycle repeats itself again & again. Just hope the DOF, can continue to identify up & coming talent & make a financial killing for BFC.

Nobody has gone who wasn't expected to.

That's a good one.

That's a good one.

Watkins, Maupay and Kamo look like they are going to be special and Henrik will be fine

A front three of Maupay, Watkins and Canos with Clarke and Flo breathing down their necks sounds gorgeous, throw in Sawyers behind them then I'm going to have some fun watching how it all pans out, we sell and we always will but we've sold and have the best squad still intact after any previous window that I can remember.

 

[GlasgowBee]

It's a fun ride and we do things very differently, and I like that, buy low, sell high and still keep providing the goods, we should be proud of where we are as a club and how we got there

I do so hope you're right. Will try to have good dreams tonight. And I bought ticket for Boro first thing, so we should be hitting top speed by about then

 

[Col T]

It's what we do. Players will step up and more will come in...

I hate to see those players go but they've taken the cash (which I understand to a point) Thanks for the memories but money is your God, not Brentford. Good luck in assuming Birmingham City is a better bet (you may get a nasty surprise)
And I look forward to your "heartfelt" messages on social media.
Fickle I may be but if you don't want to play for my team anymore I'm not interested in you or yr patter.

Also to all the twitteraty and the facebookers and a few on here....Sssshhh! Dont you get it? What else could happen? They dont want to be here and agitated for a move....Arry offered buckets of lucre. The end...Its not Matthew, Rasmus, Phil Giles or Dean Smith. Its yr heroes...

Up the Bees and ner na ner to the mercenaries*

Maybe we can migrate the facts onto the doom and gloom threads. Happy days indeed, Morecambe at home anyone?

I'll add to that 2 decent back up strikers in Vibe and Shaibu who could both have contributions to make over the coming months and I make you right that we have more attacking options than we have ever had. We are still going to end up with some real quality sat on the bench oh and Judgey on his way back!

Not sure you will like 60% of that tomorrow, but I understand where you are coming from and I like the ending.

We are bees, no player bigger than the club and we go again and continue to find these players low and sell high.

Championship football at Lionel road is what I actually want really, I understand the prem ambition but how when we can't compete on wages? COYR

Yep fook it...coat...lucky DM's.. the lot..bloody shearwater talk me into getting a ST.. it's a bargain you know it...the coat will fit snug on Kettering bee

Fencer, my old man took me to GP for my 5th birthday treat when I thought I was going to Highbury as my mums family are Irish and those over were in North London and Gooners so I chose them as Phil Riley told me to!
I'm 55 this year and you used to see me and my brother on the 237 or 90 40 odd years ago, I reckon I've seen as much sh*t as most?

yes 237 we cant have been much more than 13 yrs old....I undestand MB selling plan ...and I understand about the ground,, but it just seems knock back after knock back .. when my old man took me as a 7yr old 1969 I kind of knew what I was getting into.. and I could never support anyone else ... the new ground was a once in everyones life time to build something special..and we cant even get that right .. be honest the new ground we are getting is not the dream we all wanted...sorry MB this sounds so fooking ungrateful ..maybe im alone but its how I feel

But it's better than dying and being Orient?

10 years ago I never dreamed of Premier League, maybe we've got carried away but it's got to better than we grew up on.
I'm talking purely about the standard of football, I still smile thinking of 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 Steam in the Royal Oak and trying to stand somewhere near Spanner or The Mentals

Of course your right, take no notice of me , maybe its just the shock of getting off the plane to read we have sold THREE massive players for us

I wasn't here when it changed to the current route but this was the old 237 route on London Transport. It looks as though it ran this route from Hounslow to Chertsey up to 1967 from 1934. http://www.red-rf.com/red_rf_routes/crew_routes_1952/237.aspx

 

[JBN]

We've just got a lot of money for players that could walk for nothing at the end of the of the season.

10 years ago, we wouldn't have got anywhere near the figures we are getting for our players.

 

[JBN]

But it's better than dying and being Orient?

Orient signed Matt Harrold yesterday. He left BFC 12 years ago!

We've come along way

 

[redsbee]

5 off the wage bill should help financially and allow loanees if necessary come January.

 

[Awaysocks]

Now everyone thinks we have fallen to bits we can regroup and our young stars have a chance to show the rest of the league who we are !

At 62 and also going to my first game at circa 5 I reckon I've seen more sh*t than you even. I'm very relaxed about the well thought out and very well executed transfer policy.

Are we starting a competition for who has seen the most sh*t? Well l can beat you and Sonofabee cos it's 56 years of watching it for me minus the last few years under MB. That's what gets me. How can anyone who has been around this great club for any appreciable time put a negative on where we are,how we are run and our ambitions? TBF in all those years there have been occasional polished turds but that's all they were. Life is good.:thumbsup:

Sorry if you do the math (I know) I think you find I trump you by 1 year. Anyway I agree with you final comment.

Hi All....my first posting.

Just like to add im 62 and was taken to GP in 1959....my Dad is 89 years old and first came to GP in 1936 !! .... he still comes to GP when he can and boy does he have some memory's of Brentfords history from the 30,40,50 and 60s.....
He is my Brentford Legend for taking me to GP all those years ago.

He is one of the few that has seen Brentford play at the highest level and has seen them play the way of of Division 4 a few times as well.

Football to him has changed so much but he believes that if you truly support your team ....You will support them through the good times but more importantly through the not so good as well.

He remains positive for the future of BFC despite what has happened over the last few days .....as he said to me yesterday after what he has had to endure in his lifetime of supporting Brentford...this is what its like being a Brentford Supporter!!
