Leeds..boro..Derby all losing so on what weve seen so far this seaon no reason why we cant challenge ,but with indiscipline and odd team selections then mid table at best.Now 2 down…..I’d be happy with a mid table finish, and push for the play offs/promotion next season.
It was always going to be a tough time today tbh but we didn’t have to make it easier for them. COYL
I’d be happy mid table..but so far no outstanding teams ahead of us so just give it a go..Watched Brentford lose at Rovers and they went for em straight from the off and were very comfortable. My mate text Morsy’s challenge was ridiculous and deservedly sent off.Cook is starting to become a bit of a tinkerman ….we really need to play a settled team but are these loan player requirements throwing a spanner in ?
There will be changes for Tuesday. Cracker and Will need to be back and an attacking midfielder on the right. Connolly can then slot in with Evans in defensive midfield. Vaughan isn’t a lone striker so he can bench warmer with Windass. Suppose out of this run of games the next two were more winnable on paper anyway.
Bad day against a good team but we are still well placed. Forget it and move on. Not many will get anything at Griffin Park so on we go,COYL
Looking at today’s game.their definitely the best team we played….so mid table would be good this season.due to us being a mile off to compete with teams like this .absolutely second best today from start to finish.hull won’t be a easy game either.

Just got back home.
As said, a poor day, but hey ho. Brentford are good, but we made it easy. Nothing to do with team selection im my opinion, the players just didn’t get going. They should have been strong enough. Connolly actually had quite a good game, but you know what it was like when we lose 2-0 but everyone’s MotM was Walton – it could have been far worse but for a few great saves, particularly from one-on-ones.
I like Chey and Cedric, but today they were being pulled wide which left a motorway through the middle. Bees controlled the ball first touch; we failed to do that. If they got the ball when facing their own goal they turned; we passed backwards.
Morsy’s challenge was a clear red, he led with his arm. Yes, the Brentford lad had been niggling all game, but Morsy’s a professional and international, team captain, he should be able to take that.
But the game was pretty well lost by then. At half time we were saying we’d snatch hands off for a draw.
One of those days.
Two home games that if we win and have 6 points out of 9 it will have been a good week.Brentford are the best team we’ve played for a while not just this season. Worthy winners.
Thought Cook should have made changes at half time personally as we were totally outplayed in first half. Midfield had no ideas and playing wing backs that don’t get cover when going forward made it so easy for Brentford.

Pretty well agree.
Personally would have gone to a back 3 to give either Chey or Cedric responsibility for the centre channel. As it was there was a space wide enough to drive a bus through with 4 across the back, and as you say the wing backs just weren’t getting back, although Reece had a fairly good game.
Anthoneeeeeee looked a bit tired, and I think I would have taken him off. Jacobs was stripped off ready at one point, and he might have made a difference running at them. As it was we lacked teeth today.
