The Marcus Bean thread

[Balders Bee]

Just announced on twitter what we probably already knew. He is leaving Brentford. Cheers Marcus, best of luck in the future.

Personally I think we may well miss him, if Uwe finds a better improved version then all fine and dandy. Good luck to Beanie Man wherever he goes, he has given us good service and I hope his career continues to prosper.

 

[jharvey85]

Cheers Beano. Always a favourite of mine. Great goal against Leyton Orient last eyar and the header against Barnet is the championship season. And many a crunching tackle. I will miss singing the New Pele song.

 

[Newbury Bee 09]

Good luck Marcus

 

[Invipai]

Very much appreciated what he did here, but it probably is right for both parties for him to move on, he may not get many games next year, which isn't fair on him.

I suspect he'll find a new club without too much trouble though, and like pretty much all fans I wish him the best in the future.

 

[JJbee]

Bean is a top squad player who gives it his all when he comes on and you know what you get keep him!

 

[tolcarne]

a good servant and gave his all hope he gets a decent club...

 

[Owlsmoor_Bee]

Fantastic servant over the past four years. Never hid and what he may've lacked in technical ability he more than made up for in sheer guts and determination. As others have said, his goal against Hull will live long in the memory. Thanks Marcus and good luck. You'll not be short of offers in sure.

 

[RodBee]

I think he will be a loss although I understand that at his age he wants to play every game - and with us he won't.

One of my favourite players in recent years.

Good luck Beany and there will always be a welcome at GP.

 

[Houghton Bee]

the right decision i think, good luck marcus and thanks for your efforts

 

[NorthamptonBee]

The right player at the right time when in league 2, a tremendous trier who played his part. 2 brilliant goals with sublime finishes v Bradford and Orient this season, probably 50 shanked efforts to go with them though.

 

[maddogging]

Bournemouth away in the Lg2 winning season, immense.

Good luck Beano

 

[RitchBee]

Good luck Marcus,

See you in an Orient shirt soon?

 

[Ritchings]

The new Pele ... I said his name ... is Marcus Bean ... Bean!

Beautiful. Great efforts Marcus. Good luck.

 

[Tom the bee]

a 100% player, good luck Marcus! :bound:

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Bournemouth away in the Lg2 winning season, immense.

Good luck Beano

One of the best single handed performances I've seen in a Brentford shirt. Would never be beaten and always gave his all. Someone will benefit from his tremendous work ethic but we move on.

 

[shouldbee]

If Uwe thinks HE's not the required standard we need for next season, I can think of quite a few more who fall into that catergory ?................the next few weeks will be very interesting................

 

[Bergen Bee]

Thank you, Marcus. And good luck!

 

[jharvey85]

Must be added that he was always a great club representative and cheerful chap to boot...

 

[condorman]

Good luck Marcus. You've been a credit whilst here both in terms of effort in the shirt and work with the community trust.

 

[scruff puppy pup]

He'd be a good signing for Leyton Orient if they can agree terms.
Not going to get them promoted, but good enough to keep them in the division.

 

[moribee]

Legend.

Agree, you could argue he got us up that day..maybe not a legend of a player but one we will always remember. Good luck to him.

One player who always gave his all and became a favourite largely because of his effort and attitude if not his natural ability. Great goals against Hull and Orient, top bloke and sure he'll do a good job for a side below us for a good few years.

 

[Keighley Bee]

Thanks, Marcus, and good luck. Would you mind leaving some of your commitment in the changing rooms for the next incumbent to pick up?

 

[moribee]

IMHO treated badly but not surprised.

 

[Owlsmoor_Bee]

IMHO treated badly but not surprised.

Let's not start this again. He's been deemed by Rosler as being not quite good enough for what we want right now. That doesn't in any way detract from his efforts whilst he was with us, nor does it cast any poor light on the club or the manager. It's a fact of footballing life that players come and go, and having been a supporter for the length of time you have, a fact you're well aware of.

 

[BAGSHOT DAVE]

Legend.

I would not call him a legend by any means. not a Terry Hurlock or Paul Evans , a trier but no finnish we must do better to get that top six next season How many goal has he scored in 4 seasons:

Around 10 less than Evans, 3 less than Hurlock

 

[Salford Bee]

How I'd love to see a Bournemouth away 2009 version next year.
I wish him all the best (except, of course, when he comes back to Griffin Park).
Rosler has released two of the hardest working members of our squad. We do need somebody with that sort of commitment next year.

Spot on

So you are the clubs mouthpiece,it was just my opinion

Oh just bore off.

 

[moribee]

After you

 

[sonofabee]

IMHO treated badly but not surprised.

Out of interest how come you're of that opinion?

 

[condorman]

We are realistically not able to bring players in without moving players out. If Rosler thinks he can bring in better than Bean - and Bean is out of contract - then I think this makes sense however much I like Marcus' whole hearted approach to the game.

 

[bees66]

Out of interest how come you're of that opinion?

may have something to do with Sam saying, he found out he had been released by the net..

 

[SmiffyBee]

From Bean's opinion, he probably was treated badly, having featured in a lot of games this year
From the clubs perspective, it makes more sense, if we are seeking a younger more effective "Bean" - bring it on

 

[Les Beeavinu]

may have something to do with Sam saying, he found out he had been released by the net..

What's that got to do with Marcus Bean?

 

[bees66]

it happens, time to time.. common mistake...

Surely, he's only been treated badly if it was implied and he was led to believe that due to the number of games he'd been involved in he'd be getting a new contract?

Re Marcus, what I read into his tweets and hearsay of recent months is that he's throroughly enjoyed his time here, especially this season and no regrets. Haven't spoken to him in person for months so may be way off the mark. I feel very sorry for Sam W if he wasn't informed in person or through an agent but suspect again that it hasn't come as a bolt out of the blue.

 

[GP200]

...............well done Beanieman............a favourite of mine.................Bournemouth away at Easter he was outstanding............also a goal away at Lincoln cooly taken.............best of luck..............

 

[absenteebee]

I like Bean the most out of today's released trio. Good luck to the fella.

Wood said he had expected it but that's for another thread.

So you are the clubs mouthpiece,it was just my opinion

Having known owlsmoor_bee for many years and known his comitment to BFC i would back his opinions and judgement against some of yours.

 

[bennyb]

Bean will be fondly remembered with the likes of lee harvey and brian statham. all the best to him.

 

[The Pipe]

IMHO treated badly but not surprised.

Why ???

Once again you come out with statements derogatory to the club but fail to produce any substance whatsoever. If you genuinley beleive he has been treated badly then please explain exactly why without going into your normal ramble regarding "something being not right" You make some interesting posts from time to time but posts like this do you no good whatsoever.

You have no experience of my opinions or judgement and on that basis I would mind your own business.

nothing derogatory about the club just saying I feel he has been treated badly but not surprised he is not wanted.

Still waiting for the same answer from much earlier so don't hold your breath.

 

[The Pipe]

But by implication that is exactly what you are doing. If you could just explain in what way he has been badly treated then we could all understand where you are coming from. If it is merley that after 4 years we ought to have given him a new contract then I am afraid that holds no water.

Maybe its just a windup and I have been caught!!
