Think Barnsley made them look good. They kept going down the right and getting round the back.leon wrote:Brentford looked good. Fantastic cross for their first goal.
A common misconception. They’ll find someone else to replace the mould of Watkins, before selling them on for a profit in a few years and repeat...im sure people would have said similar things after losing Dean, Egan, Maupay, Jozefzoon, Sawyers, Woods, Jota, Vibe, Colin etc etc...Old Man Andrews wrote:When Brentford lose Ollie Watkins in January they will sink without a trace.
Sink without a trace in terms of any promotion push, didn't mean sinking to League 1. Brentford's business model is a very good one providing they are content with playing Championship football forever, they must be very financially secure.URZZZZ wrote:A common misconception.

Their model is good but only to a certain extent. It’s clear they’re not reinvesting enough of their profits because they’re constantly finishing in the same position. I’m not sure any owner would be happy to be stuck in the Championship for a long time. I thought the signing of Jansson could help but it hasn’t really made a difference yetOld Man Andrews wrote:Sink without a trace in terms of any promotion push, didn't mean sinking to League 1.

From where Brentford were and have been the majority of their existence I don't think being stuck in a Championship is necessarily a bad thing.URZZZZ wrote:Their model is good but only to a certain extent.

Do see your point but the underlying argument is that they’re not making progress. Even if they went from 20th to 17th to 14th etc, they’d be achieving progress at least. Finishing 12th each season isn’t progress and whilst it’s a completely different case, rotting in the Championship will often lead to relegation, like with Ipswich last yearOld Man Andrews wrote:From where Brentford were and have been the majority of their existence I don't think being stuck in a Championship is necessarily a bad thing.URZZZZ wrote:Their model is good but only to a certain extent.

What message does that send? They should be paraded around the pitch at half time shackled together and have rotten fruit thrown at them by the crowd, nothing more.Hound wrote:So Keogh's career is basically over. 15 month injury apparently
Bizarrely Derby sound like they are considering the other 2 goons to play on Wednesday. Not sure how that is going to go down
