Everybody did well. But what really killed Brentford was the high press. So the accolades go to the strikers and advanced midfield players. Brentford had to resort to long ball. Even when subs came on it was seemless. We kept our shape and energy. Team performance yesterday when everything...

Disagree. We have been too nice a side. Hyam andO'Hare picked up necessary bookings today. We are learning. Hamer doesnt always get it right , but he has brought a bit of bite and needle into the team.

Great shape, great press, energy, great team performance to a man. Superb

Toney is obviously like a vibrator to this Brentford commentator

It is the high press that has worked for us. We need fresh legs to continue it.

Rueing Mcfadz miss and Walkers scores Good finish

Joe Royle had a couple of mid table finishes due to injuries but Oldham kept faith and he got them promoted. Also the bounce factor Grendel refers to is a myth as an 18 year study of German football showed. Sacking a manager may not improve results at all and can get worse. Any improvement...

So considering he has won a cup final and gained two promotions it has helped him succeed. Considering it is his first season in the Championship he has only had two transfer windows on a very limited budget to succeed. Plus there is the lag of contracted players leaving who were bought for...

So are you saying stability actually helps Managers succeed?

Agree with your observations until I read "sell"! They are not the sort of players you can sell- it is let their contract run out and let them move on. Fans are not on the page of how difficult it is to build a good squad.

Never rated Hughes or McKenzie. None events amongst the great players we have had.

Hi Grendel. How many accounts do you need to say you don't rate Robins?

On the run in form will go out of the window. Teams just above will start losing, teams at bottom will start winning, teams in top two and top six will start losing. The pressure effect of last eight games. We have a lot of fans who have unrealistic expectations - and when things get tight...

Manchester United's training regimes must have been dire then. Brian Robson was plagued with hamstring problems.

When Oggy joined I wasn't that keen. But actually think he is quite good. He is knowlegeable from a tactical point of view, makes some interesting observations and is pretty fair. Clive makes mistakes but lots of commentators do. It is not an easy job and most of us could not do it. We are...

Having a bad run when fixture list is pitching you against sides mainly in the top six is not a disaster. We need to regroup and go again

It was always going to be a scramble to safety season. We are still in a position to survive but it will be tough (no different to when the season started). There are probably 8 or 9 teams that can be dragged into it.

Amazing how some fans bang on about our players not being at Championship level (and they are not wrong). But can't accept that the top six or seven sides have players way above the quality of our side.

in fairness it has been a common theme. Practically every player has been responsible at some point - whether gift goals or missing easy chances. It doesnt matter what the tactics or formation is - a lot of it is just basic errors, poor decision making or lack of character. All the signs of a...

As I said Grow Up
