    When that penalty was saved it was like an invisible beast rushed from each and every fan pushing the team forward. Cannot underestimate home advantage this season.

    Exactly this. Which means we will be in majority of games this season, all you can ask for first season back in Prem.

    Ricos leg kept him on, it’s the sleeve where the line is for offside

    What are you talking about? Man United far more likely to be challenging us for the European places than Burnley <doh>

    Totally agree mate - enhanced by the obvious team spirit that has been kept considering all the incomings.
    Can’t decide between Enzo or Alderete for MoM.

    Wasn’t the walk out we used to have when we conceded relatively late either. Ground is so much fuller at the end of games now.

    Lads will appreciate that.

    We deserved that. A Brentford win would have been smash and grab and a draw would have been disappointing, despite not creating a lot of opportunities.

    But to win it is just ****ing dandy!!!!!

    Superb that. A lot of different players but the same dog in us. And a dog you wouldn't want a bite off.

    A lot to be pleased about there, and I was thinking the same at 1-1.

    No one looks as if they shouldn't be playing in this league, and some look to the manor born. That is some midfield there mind! Defence looks like a defence and there is a goal in us.

    Bloody excellent.

    Rules haven't changed, can't be offside with a part of the body you can't score from (i.e. arms / hands). Been that way forever lol

    Heard a few pundits in the media before the match saying Brentford will be fine got some good players, they did look alright today,but what i witnessed today wasn’t a team who are so far ahead of us,they never had a sustained period of pressure and never really stretched us,personally think we’ll be around them come the end of the season

    Running out of words for this time like. Incredible. Tough tough game but we looked well in it. Was brave to go for it at 1-1 by RLB but got rewarded. Great game and unreal 3 points. ELF my man of the match.

    The amount of late goals we've scored the last few months, i don't understand people who still leave early.

    I'm somewhat surprised by a few posters saying Brentford were the better team. Imo, at worst, we were a match for them in all aspects.
