Spot on, we’ll wrote.
As usual, an excellent summary.
I do not have the luxury of watching Brentford live as it’s not too easy to do that in Australia. However, I looked at the BBC stats and it showed, yellow cards. Liverpool 3, Brentford 1. Fouls, Liverpool 8, Brentford 5. How does that reconcile with the childish gibberish of Klopp.
I am quite happy to see the so called experts, particularly opposing coaches/managers as well as the dumb as dog s… journalists who usually emerged from those clubs that believe they are entitled to always win, and particularly so against a club like Brentford.
Let them all make fools of themselves whilst we quietly enjoy the manner by which Brentford are changing the rules for success.
I am sure Benham, Crown, Frank and the players do not crave adulation from the opposition and dumb journalists, but they do crave success, as does every supporter, so let the windbags blow hot air and long may Brentford continue to be the new force in English football. One day, very soon, that lot will get the taste of humble pie. When that happens I will look forward to your summary Jim. It will be very pleasant reading indeed.
I think you raise a fair point that most of us are fully aware of. I actually even used the word entitled from the West Stand on Monday night.
However, I’m not sure the overall ignorance of who we are, what we do and how we do it should bother us.
For one, it makes all these so-called experts appear the exact opposite. And, secondly, it suits us slipping under the radar and constantly being disparaged. Teams do play us with a sense that all they need to do is turn up to beat us. I actually worry about the day they finally suss us out! Second season syndrome has always been lazy rhetoric and was never gonna be the case for us. We’ve been on an upward trajectory for years and there has been no change to the plan for so long now that there was never any reason to expect anything less than improvement this season.
I fully understand why fans would want credit where it’s due but that’s where our faith in the Club and belief in the team comes in. Screw the haters! Up the Bees!
David I stream the games via an Optus sport subscription I believe it is about $140 I was lucky enough to get it on special for $99 at the start of last season and they renewed it at the same price this season .You can watch live games, full replays, mini matches on not only Brentford games but any premier league games and some other leagues I also see I will be able to get this weekends cup game V West Ham. You can also use. I believe up to 4 devices. Several football shows are also available.
With regards to Bryan’s goal, I initially thought there was a chance it could get chalked off but looking at the replays from the different angles I am happy that the right decision was made. Indeed I feel there would have been more ground to rule out Liverpool’s first / equalizing goal last season for the manner in which they gained possession in the build-up. If the contact on Roerslev resulting in a Liverpool corner just prior wasn’t deemed a foul no way could Bryans have been.
For us beelievers it just gets better & better and I think there is wide spread appreciation even if there remains a great deal of condescesnsion
We’ thrive performing against the odds, as others have noted, let the ignorant and arrogant remain deluded. The ‘special’ ones will learn to lose in the long run.
When we entered the Championship, it was the same teams like Brentford narrative. Not long before we got promotion, a manager of one of the clubs whose fans thought that way said that if they had played an open game, we would have cut them apart.
We will not make that transition in this league, but we still have potential to develop in style as well as substance. If we hang around long enough, genuine, if grudging respect may come our way; but I do remember a time when we were a little snooty about teams based heavily on strength, directness and parking the – ahem – the low block.
One day gravity may notice how high we are floating and get the hump, but until that day I am just enjoying the flight and smirking at those who sulk when we dare to beat them.
I’m glad to read an article that gives voice to something that’s irked me all season, the announcers and pundits treating Brentford’s every win as nothing but some kind of deficiency of the other side and at best, giving only grudging credit to the Beas’ efforts. I never thought of the Premier League as “Deficient” in any particular way but I’ve enjoyed watching my adopted team take advantage of those deficiencies week after week and will continue to cheer their efforts, hopefully, to a top four finish. Maybe that’ll quiet the doubters. The Beas are a talented, hard working team. And if beating Liverpool by two without their main striker doesn’t make that clear they’ll just have to keep on going til it is clear. Come on Brentford !
There were no sour grapes from Pep when he put his hands up after our brilliant victory at the Etihad. Klopp and Moyes are both under pressure and they represent the views of their fans, who hate losing to Teams Like Brentford. Let alone being blown apart. Conte couldn’t even put his finger on a map as to where Brentford is. We still offer great novelty value to the global PL world, who are loving seeing the Brentford story develop. It is the jealous ‘has beens’ who especially resent our current top 10 place. Clubs like Sheffield Wednesday, WBA, Derby.. who feel their name, badge and fan base deserve our place. Sometimes to be ignored and not talked about is the greatest form of flattery. There is absolutely nothing negative at all to say.
