Richard signs for Fulham on loan... Do they know he's retiring soon?

 

[super J]

Signing for Fulham according to twitter

 

[bracknell_bee18]

On fulham official Twitter page.

Must of run out of fans to sell his coffee too.

 

[jharvey85]

Nope, seems like its true! http://www.brentfordfc.co.uk/news/article/richard-lee-brentford-to-fulham-loan-2360757.aspx

 

[TW3Bee]

That's a strange signing.

 

[Invipai]

Maybe trying to grow the fanbase for his coffee business...

An unusual move though...shows how far we are above Fulham if we're loaning them our number 3 keeper.

 

[Bridge Bee]

Torn between finding it really funny we've given them a keeper who has admitted to not being fully fit and not able to perform to the standard he wants, and being puzzled why we're loaning them anyone at all.

 

[Paul USA]

What's the date next week ???

 

[Guildford Bee]

What a sad end to his Bees career. I think his whole career.

 

[shouldbee]

Absolute classic, I love it. Better cancel, the bronze "legend" statue we've ordered for the Braemar Road forecourt .............lollollollollol all we need now to top it is King Kev is joining QPR !!!

 

[TW1Bee]

What's the date next week ???

Had to think for a moment myself. Bees taking the p*ss

 

[red_and_white]

Really odd

 

[nocoat]

lol

 

[ladbroke]

He is there to help them to the promised land!

 

[shouldbee]

Really odd

Not at all he's a professional footballer and Brentford was just another job !

 

[nocoat]

Unfriended. THAT is how fickle I am :beer:

 

[Mudbone]

Wow ! Just wow ! Of all teams !

 

[nanny58]

shambles

 

[Banana]

No doubt some marketing link-up :sad:

 

[Ace Face]

Good for all parties.

Vastly over rated GK IMHO.

Good luck in the future Richard.

 

[Friji]

No loss, seems a nice bloke but long since passed his 'prime'

 

[shouldbee]

No loss, seems a nice bloke but long since passed his 'prime'

Not according to the poll that was posted on here, there were a few who said he was better than Butts................but they have all gone quiet

 

[super J]

Don't like the idea of him playing his last ever game for that lot.

But if he gets them relegated it'll be well done agent Lee....

 

[jlove]

It's good to see us helping out our disadvantaged neighbours, Fulham and Woking.

 

[tipsey]

So fulham will have all the inside information about us when we play them

 

[red_and_white]

Not at all he's a professional footballer and Brentford was just another job !

Not that. More that there's only 7 games left of his career and he's moving to be a second choice somewhere else?! Bettinelli is a good keeper. Sorry, but that's really really odd.

 

[shouldbee]

He's probably moved on because he doesn't like what's going on at BFC. But not to fear we'll be in the Champions League next season with our Iberian coach....

 

[North London Bee]

What's not to like? He is highly unlikely to play for us again, he is retiring at the end of the season and obviously hopes to get some game time there before he retires.

He can't play against us next week. I would far prefer he ends his career with a couple of matches for them or even sitting on their bench rather than just doing Bees Player commentaries for us.

Good luck to him. He is a long time retired and is perfectly entitled to try and get some more game time.

This does not affect Brentford's fortunes in any way shape or form.

 

[tobymaxtonesmith]

Eh?

 

[staines_bee]

He becomes number 2 to Betinelli presumably?

 

[beebee4]

Agent Lee in place now

 

[Les Beeavinu]

How odd.

 

[ruislip bee]

I'd let him play against us. I'm sure we can rely on Agent Lee.

 

[twickersbee]

I find this very odd as he has so much knowledge about our style and formations why would we let him go there before we have played them.

Yep, what's all the fuss about ?

 

[hanworthbee]

To be blunt I'm glad he's gone as he's been picking up a wage for little return for ages now.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

The chaps on Bees Player must be gutted now that Sam and Dickie have both gone.

 

[shouldbee]

I agree mate, what a waste of money he's been

 

[Alex Callow]

We are taking the piss a week eaely.

 

[shouldbee]

The chaps on Bees Player must be gutted now that Sam and Dickie have both gone.

No probs, let's have more of BBB...........and Marky Bee of course

 

[JCMcBee]

....the show must go on.

 

[Cougar]

Torn between finding it really funny we've given them a keeper who has admitted to not being fully fit and not able to perform to the standard he wants, and being puzzled why we're loaning them anyone at all.

I think the first part answers the second.........

 

[eaglebee]

Don't have a problem with him going to Fulham, that's his choice, he was never going to get a game with us before he retires, so why not!!

 

[Markybee]

The chaps on Bees Player must be gutted now that Sam and Dickie have both gone.

 

[Sydney Bee]

It's ok it will just mean more Big Ben Burgess he has a 100% Bees Player winning record

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

So fulham will have all the inside information about us when we play them

Oh God, that's terrible. You mean they're going to be torturing him too?

 

[Markybee]

It's ok it will just mean more Big Ben Burgess he has a 100% Bees Player winning record

Sadly, lives a long, long way from GP (and most games in fact)

 

[flowerpower bee]

ironic, considering his utterly calamitous performance for us on his debut, a 0-5 friendly defeat to... Fulham

 

[ChinaBee]

Sadly, lives a long, long way from GP (and most games in fact)

As is now a teacher so couldn't do week days.....

 

[HertfordBee]

MW's comments about Mark Smith pushing Richard Lee for the third goalkeeping spot surely makes a nonsense of newspaper reports that Smith is being released?
