Bees v Hoops match thread 10:58 - Nov 27 with 44025 viewsdublinr

Let me start this one.

I'm sitting by the sea in Dun Laoghaire in beautiful sunshine - and there's no wind. THAT NEVER HAPPENS.

Today is going to be a day of miracles. Things that never happen are happening. We will win on the telly. We will win a London derby. We are going to beat Brentford.

Bees 2 Rs 3

I didn't say I was being silenced, far from it. Just strange that anyone who disagrees with the general tone of the board is automatically assumed to be the same poster because 'how very dare they????? '

I haven't been on here very long but I will certainly post whether we win, lose or draw. I'm certainly not a doom-monger either but for me there's something very wrong with the culture at the club when we're losing 19 out of 20 higher-profile matches like that going back over five years - i.e. it's not a statistical anomaly.

I think one person has said it. I wouldn’t be so precious.

As for losing 19/20 high profile matches I don’t think that is accurate, but if it was I’d take it as an indicator of our genuine station in this league. There is a big difference in losing 6-0 and 2-1 though so I hope you appreciate the progress we are making.

Welcome to the board 👍

More than happy with the performance and our ongoing continued improvement. At the end of the day, there has been another influx of new players having lost some serious quality and experience from last season. I was pleasantly surprised by Willocks first half display last night and am more than happy with Dieng, Dickie and even LTC looks the part. I honestly believe we won’t see the best of this team until the latter end of the season which, imo, bodes well for a strong start for the following season. BOS will be a big loss unfortunately.
Definitely going in the right direction having put a team together on a relative shoestring....under the circumstances, great work.

19 out of 20 is a statistical anomaly as the thing that connects those games is that they happen to be played on a Friday

Disappointing to be so badly robbed by the refs in a couple of consecutive games.

Pr!cks. Nothing ever changes.

Nowt to do with QPR, I'm afraid.

They've played it after every home win at GP for as long as I can remember (just like eg 'Hey Jude' before k.o.)

And they've now transferred the whole matchday routine in turn, to try to replicate the whole day as closely as possible at Lionel Road.

Anyhow, thought QPR were a good bit better than in recent games against Bees - on another day you might have got a draw had the breaks gone your way.

As for Warburton, though I'm not one of those who turned 180 degrees against him as soon as he left the Bees - imo he's a decent enough coach who took us to a higher level - I thought his post-match interview was embarrassing, tbh.

Where you've badly mistimed your run and there's clear daylight between you and the defender, you can expect to get flagged, no complaints.

But when you're offside by a big toe, as IT was, you often get the decision. Esp when there were bodies between you and the linesman, and officials aren't supposed to give what they can't properly see.

And in case of doubt I always think that it's an easier call for an official to err by disallowing a valid goal, than by allowing an invalid one.

In that sense Toney was "unlucky", even if it was the correct decision.

Oh do give over. With VAR we’ve seen offside given for a hairs breadth. He was offside end of.
Well spotted by the Lino

Strong and stable my arse.

"Give over"?

I was merely responding to one of the many posters on here expressing their own opinions with one of my own.

Namely why, even if correct, Toney was somewhat unlucky for it to be given against him.

(Clue: they don't have VAR in the EFL)

yeah, the replays showed the lino had a great position and was looking along the line.
He saw it was offside and gave it as such.

Well if you do it for Wycombe and Rotherham too that makes it even worse.

Next time someone I know needs a low budget wedding DJ I’ll send them Brentford’s way!

As the financial chasm continues to grow between the top two tiers, sadly, this will be the norm season on season.

Can we go out yet?
