It’s Christmas. Almost. And The Beesotted crew met up for pre-Christmas drinks at the George IV pub in Chiswick to try and muster some merriment as the Bees looked to the Bolton game at the weekend for three festive points.
The festive discussion included the ongoing Thomas Frank discussion. Where is it going wrong for him? Lounges at Lionel Road. Brentford. The club seems to have forgotten their history – with some randomly-named Lounges pencilled in for the new stadium. Highs and lows of 2018. The crew think back to the last year. Plus we get the lowdown on Bolton from Eddie Skelly from Lion of Vienna Suite blog.
