It was always thus Dave – at least in recent years. The ‘little’ teams get plundered by the bigger ones…who in turn get plundered by the much bigger ones in the fullness of time. Whether this will continue to be the pattern in years to come depends very much on the club boards and how much they’re prepared to allow their own greed and that of players’ agents to hold sway…. Innit…?
This is also our model – we have embraced it and that’s why we’ve been clever with the year extension, and why we’ve been able to cash in on the likes of Andre Gray and Scott Hogan.
We know we can’t play the big boys at their own game and that’s why we make the statistical, bargain basement signings.
I’m quite happy for us to keep doing what we’re doing and then, hopefully, an opportunity will arise for a shot at the big time. This season will be a big ask (with or without Jota) and we are better placed cutting our cloth accordingly until we’re in the new stadium, I reckon.
That’s not to say that we give up before the season starts – if we end up in the top half come January, I’m sure Matthew and the team will be checking their formulas and making a few calculated gambles. We just don’t want to go for broke and end up bust as a result. Here’s to another top 10 finish!
A good read Dae, it is a shame that it is all down to Money at the end of the day, not just at Brentford, its the same in all the Leagues, that is how Manchester City got into the top ten a few years ago, unfortunately even for them, once you spend Millions of Pounds on Players you have to Pay even more Millions of Pounds to stay where you are and it is the smaller Clubs that have to struggle, unless they themselves get taken over by somebody who has Millions of cash just laying around …all very nice for those who can afford it, but in reality it is the fans who have to suffer the cost and sooner or later it will only be possible to possible to watch what the TV Companies Sponsors want you to see, Money Rules the World, gone are the days when Football consisted of Amateurs and Professional Players who were a lot more loyal to their Clubs which vanished when the maximum wage of players went from £8 to £100 a week, and on now to infinity , i used to be a season ticket Holder for many years, but find it impossible to be one these days due to being a senior citizen whose income does not allow it, but for what it is worth i have supported the club since i was born in 1941 (my 1st words (thanks to my Uncle a Bees season ticket holder no longer with us ) teaching me to say “Up the Bees” whenever i saw him, which i still say today 76 years on. once again thanks for the read
Jota is an important part of the team,with the current squad we have a great opportunity of making the premier league,he could sign a 2 year deal if we haven’t made promotion move next year.
Don’t know what to think I be more gutted if we lost dean or woods
Sad but true in this day and age all you can do is appreciate what you have in the moment bacause when big money calls off any player goes jota ,o’mara hurlock the list goes on but we are bees and we will go on
I’m a regular listener to the pod cast and remember the discussion when rumours started flying around that a recall on the King was a possibilty. The talk was that if he came back would he be the same, would he ruin his previous reputation by not being anywhere near as good as he was the first time, will we get a transfer fee from him as he wasn’t performing for Eibar? So IF he does go and we get £8m + and unlike Scott Hogan he actually does move to the PL (and therefore we don’t have to play against him…yet!) then again in the cold light of day that is a good deal for the Bees. I appreciate he’s a special player, not just in ability but how he galvanises the team and fans alike. I thought long and hard about getting “Jota” printed on my shirt for Christ sake!! But if we invest that money wisely like we seem to be doing more often than not then this King might be dead (to us), but as the saying goes, long live the King (anyone seen a Youtube of Marcus Maddison at Peterborough?). As a matter of interest i went to see the Bees v the Shots (pretty local team to me) and i thought Dalsgaard in particular looked a v decent addition to the squad. Roll on 2017/2018 regardless of what happens in the next few weeks. CoYBs.
Yes the deredided window !! A time for Bees fans to hold their breath and then relize the inevitable, jota is a special player and one of the best I have seen wear the Brentford shirt ! And on top of that the rumours going around about a bid for Woods almost on the table it would be easy to get angry and disillusioned about the direction of the club ? but over the thirty plus years I have watched the mighty Bees, I have come to expect that players will come and go! Brentford have bought well over the last few years and a few diamonds have emerged, so hopefully when jota moves on, a hidden gem can be found again, keep the faith ! And just lastly I would like to wish Peter Gillham a speedy recovery !he is a great man and a Bees legend, we are all with you Peter. Up the mighty beeeeeeeeeees.
