It was calm after after the Leeds United moan-fest storm. The Beesotted crew – Billy Grant, Dave Lane and Gary Paul – hooked up with Aaron at LoveSport radio studios to discuss the Leeds match plus more.
As for that penalty … was it a penalty? We’re Brentford’s changes effective? Was Leeds’ fans reaction against the referee, the Brentford players and … well just about everything … a bit of an overreaction?
Plus we catch up with ex Bees Stephen Hunt as he reminisces of his days at Brentford

The Bee Job Question

Well I can see how our love-in with the Bees can separate us from opposition fans but seizing the opportunity to criticise ridicule and humiliate Leeds fans for emphasising the rearrangement chaos that SKY coverage requires and huffing over a dubious penalty does not endear Brentford to anyone with your sarcasm and superiority. By the way it would be an honest observation if you published facts not opinions such as the number of penalties awarded to each Championship club. Leeds would not be half way up the list. I as it happens have a fondness for both clubs and take the view that without opposition (even unsporting bench behaviour) there is no competition and the better the opposition the greater the kudos for achieving a result.
