Fantastic post You're right, we've been winning ugly like never before but it can't last. We can play well but I just don't see Copper influencing games after they've started as well as the managers around him.
Back in 2010/11, we were regularly outplaying and outpassing teams - this season we are winning in an uglier sort of way by grinding out results Not sure how many of this team would be in a joint XI of both squads?
Just wish we had a striker, would take so much if ayew and Lowe. Diego Costa till the end of the season. Lol
With hand on heart Taff, I can't imagine anything as exhilarating as that first promotion to the Prem and those first two seasons. Beating the big boys, holding our own and winning a cup, the pride. Doing it as a new experience and doing it in style! Wonderful times. Cherished memories. If we some how manage it this time around it's just not going to be the same with these owners (no empathy, cold and calculating and a slog to survive).
I would like to go up just to show as a club we have something to offer. In reality I don’t care for the PL the way it is run and being played at the moment, var is ruining games and will never improve it. There will be no celebrating goals until var has confirmed it. I am happy to be at the top end of the championship every season, the only thing PL may give us is a bit more financial stability or the chance to seek the club and have some new owners.
"I'm 67 years old, I've supported Brentford for over 50, never have I despised a team as much as those time-wasting, cheating scumbags, Warnock was spot on when he said "there nailed on for promotion if they're allowed to get away with time-wasting, diving & cheating & get incompetant officials like these today" " ******************************************************************** "Words cannot describe how much i dislike swansea this season. Their wind-up fans and their wind-up players. Their players are narky and moany - they appeal en masse to refs and they go down like a sack of sh*te. The right wing-back who's a decent player but a right little **** imo - diving and appealing to get Rico sent off that time in the p/os. I The 95th minute pen on Weds night was a sickener. A joke. I didn't see past 30 minutes today, but the fact they got another late late sh*thouse goal feels like a Bees defeat." ************************************************************************* "I also think that they must train how to fall so that they not their opponents get free kicks . I think they have time wasting off to a T , I saw just after Bidwell came on , he took a slow walk towards the ball then bent down and adjusted both his socks and shin pads one at a time" *************************************************************************** "Their players even throw the ball away at throw ins for them. They are very, very cynical." ****************************************************************************** "it's anti-football. They'll be laughing all the way to the bank if it comes off, but it's horrible. Their fans will be all over ours on the usual media tonight. i think they actually prefer sh*thousing wins than playing well. Genuinely. If you asked a swan, they'd say sh*thousing as it winds others up so much."
Can I also say how much I've enjoyed reading the Brentford board! A massive, jammy-ish 3 points, a nice beer and about to eat a lovely hot Thai curry I made in the slow cooker this morning. Enjoy your evening you Jack Bastards
Warncock better get fined heavily after slagging off our dear refs (they ain't cheap you know ! ) and bismirching our coopers pater ! I'm offended and identify as a stoke and bentford fan without a safe space after another lady luck as the 12th non binary man shone on the righteous swans once more
Ahh bless them, I'm just about to well up in sympathy. What can we do to make those nasty Swans go away..
