I was too exhausted after watching the game on Sky to write anything, so I would like to credit the Brentford FC website for the match report: Keith Andrews made one change to the Brentford starting XI with Aaron Hickey replacing Kristoffer Ajer at left-back, with the Scotland international making his first Bees start since the 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in west London at the start of October. The first real chance of the game came after 17 minutes, when Brentford were won

I was hoping after two victories in the last week, we might pick up a point at Palace but that was not going to happen. We had a strong team out but on balance probably didn't deserve a point. They took the lead in the 30th minute with a goal from Mateta whose excellent header looped over Kelleher. They increased their lead in the 51st minute when we succumbed to a long throw and it flicked off Collin's head for an og. Later in the half Palace should have got a third when a m

Keith Andrews made nine changes from Saturday’s 3-2 Premier League victory against Liverpool for the Carabao Cup tie away to League 2 Grimsby Town.

Despite Liverpool’s poor league form, they smashed Eintracht Frankfurt during the week in the CL. So, I was expecting a resurgent Liverpool team and was praying that we might be able to nick a point. We had an unchanged side from our win against the Hammers on Monday night, and the squad contained four ex-Liverpool players, Henderson, Kelleher, van den Berg in the line-up with Carvalho on the bench. It took The Bees less than five minutes to open the scoring. Kayode launched

The PL returns after the international break with the Bees having a must win game away to West Ham United. "Must win, but it's still October?" I hear you cry - yes we desperately need more points at this stage of the season. West Ham will be out to impress their new manager and in the first 10 minutes they looked like they were going to overrun us, then for the rest of the game we were the only team in it. How we didn't get a cricket score, no one knows. Over the whole game w

Could we play as badly as we did at Fulham? Would the manager make the same mistake by playing five at the back? A resounding "NO" to...

With Damsgaard out, I was thinking the worst, but Henderson played a blinder. At 90 mins it was deja vu from a couple of weeks ago away...
