PSV at BFC???

[Ghost]

Forgive me if this is the wrong forum but did anyone else see three fully replica shirted and scarfed up PSV Eindhoven fans skulking around the Brook ROad area yesterday. Don't get me wrong our Dutch friends are most welcome but why?!!!

There was also a Bees fan (so it seemed) speaking Dutch too them after the game. Anyway great to see them down at BFC and hope there not scouting for PSV

I shall look out for there results now.

I think there was a bit in the programme from them saying they were coming over

 

[Chelsea Bee]

I was sat behind them in the Brooke Road seats. They told me they had planned to come to London this weekend to take in some matches and were deliberating over whether to go to Millwall or Brentford on Saturday and Arsenal today (Sunday). They kept an eye on the respective results in the run up to their visit and Brentford won due to the fact Millwall are crap and we ain't.

The fact PSV and the Bees both wear red,white and black may also have had something to do with it.

I asked them that if they had chosen to go to Millwall, would they have worn their PSV colours?
.....they said F@*k OFF, BLLX YOU'RE A C**T.

Probably the first English words they learned.

Yeah I have read that now. So it wasn't me gone mad and seeing things then!

On top of that, ther were some Polish lads in the Griffin, and the bloke in front of me was from Finland.

Are we the new Man U of div 2?

 

[Spender Bee]

How many people from Brentford actually go to the games?

 

[Nick Hester]

There were also a crowd from Den Haag who went on Saturday. I asked them Why Brentford? and they said that they pick an English club every season for a weekender and scanned the internet for a 'traditional ground with plenty of atmosphere' and a Dutch site said forget your London Premier league teams get down to Griffin Park!!

They teamed up with two Ajax supporters and the six of them came to see the Super Bees!

Also spotted the PSV fans too....

There were 2 german speaking people behind me in the New Road; couldn't understand a word they were saying save for when they said 'Brentford' or 'You Bees'.

Are you sure they weren't saying "Push up Brentford. Keep it tight!" in German?

Who is that man? I can always hear him but can never see him.

 

[Dragonfly]

He's been referred to in the past on this board but I don't think anyone can actually name him. I have never heard him say anything else and his shouting is entirely independent of what is actually happening on the field. He is the cause of me abandoning New Road, however.

 

[Alex]

We sat right in front of him at Wycombe. What a nightmare.

Eeehh it's right mul-ti-cul-tur-al doon Griffin Paaak!!!!!

Seriously it is good that GP has an international reputation for being a traditional football ground, gets a good case for redevelopment there!!!

 

[Lippy18]

I brought some mates along (Arsenal, Everton, Palace, and Liverpool supporters)on Saturday, who like coming along to GP so that they can do 'all four corners'.

Surely another case for redevolopement rather than moving. Unless of course we can get another site and build our own pubs on each corner?

 

[Silly Chip]

Can't we buy some of the houses that border Griffin Park, knock them down and build a banqueting facility? I accept that it is more viable to leave GP for new pastures but I hope before we leave that all avenues have been explored.

I have known the "Push up" Bee for a long time now, life time and passionate BFC supporter.

Must admit that its catching though, keep hearing myself shouting the same thing every now and again.

I ended up sitting by him and his mates at a game last season- when we scored they all went completely potty jumping all over the place like youngsters! Had a quick chat with them- nice blokes.

He does seem to get confused sometimes though- a mate of mine came along to the home game against Oxford season before last and heard him shouting "tight" when we had a goal kick! He does also sometimes say push up and tight at the same time which must be a contradiction in terms! He's a real character and I have managed to bring quite a few people along to matches at GP for the first time just because they want proof that the man exists! I have also overheard other people having the same "told you so" conversation with new fans!

I have found myself saying tight/push up when sitting in other parts of the ground.

You're spot on there Alex. Good noisy supporter but jeez I just wanted to punch his feckin lights out, he was shouting what seemed like straight in to my right ear.

"Keep it tight Brentford, keep it tight" as Smithy launched it up field - it got confusing after 90 mins of 'good quote, wrong situation' ! - bless him eh !

I was!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Push up Brentford]

Here, stop talking about me as if I wasnt here! I've been watching the Bees pushing up and keeping it tight since as long as I can remember and I dont take kindly to some of your remarks!

I might just start infecting other parts of the ground if this continues!

PUSH UP BRENTFORD!
KEEP IT TIGHT!
