URZZZZ Roy Beerens has retired at the age of 33

Underrated player, another one of a growing list who spent some of his time here being used in the wrong way but was clearly a fairly decent player


Agreed
Always had time for him
Not much of a tackler tho

Am I missing something here?

Wasn’t today his first goal for Brentford?

This season maybe. Pretty sure he scored for them last season.

Very interesting read. Funny that the Dai's viewed their offer in the summer as a promotion for him, but many would say manager is the most prestigious job (though certainly the most insecure).

Maybe it's not as chaotic as it appeared at the time though; a clear plan which unfortunately one of the most important stakeholders couldn't buy into. Would still like to see us fill the DoF role.

Did they see it as a promotion? Or did they say they saw it as a promotion.

Bit odd to hire a replacement for a guy you want to promote before you have apparently offered him the role / had him accept.

Came on at half time with the team already 4-0 down. There were no more goals. He put a couple of good balls into the box. Commentator kept calling him “Jordan” (rather than “Holsgrove”).
