[Rossi the Robin]

We can still do this- need a good period of press and right decisions

So glad we weren’t interested in Toney. 

Got to be honest Fordy - I watched him a few times at Peterborough last season and his performances up a level have been much better - he looks a far better player this season than he did in L1 !!

[Alessandro]

This is the point where all too often in games this season the opposition just seem to be able to find another gear against us as we just chug along with the feeling you’ve seen all we have to give.

Brentford really are a joy to watch. How can you not be jealous at how they play and the players they have 

Are their players that much better than ours other than Toney?

It’s Owura, and he really wasn’t ffs

Yeah agree with you here. He did ok, but neither him or Massengo were 'incredible' 

[Buster]

We are so easy to play against 

[054123]

We’ve been much improved this game, that’s all I wanted to see.

I expected nothing points wise, just some hope that we’ve still got it about us to stick to most other teams.

And all with no prem parachute payments how come they can do it?

[Cidre Monita]

Whilst Toney is very very good, Kalas has to make it far harder for him.  

We signed Wells and Martin 2 near to or 30 year olds, they got 24 year old Toney.

And Brentford still have the ability to identify it. 

[Fordy62]

I’d like us to bring on Wells, because I don’t feel I’m angry enough with our performance.

I’m a fan of Fammy, but he needs to come off now. His hold up play ain’t working

Hope you're right Tone, how's life with you mate ?

Plodding on and trying to get on with life. Retired but have been offered a contract on Jersey building a new hospital. Am finding retirement a tad boring so could be interested.

They are targeting our left side snd we have a major problem there

Yes we have a stop gap full back, who should not be playing there.  It's not his fault, it''s the managers, for not planning ahead.  Shame.

[Carey 6]

Mariappa can’t afford to get too close cause of how slow he is on the turn.

Honestly ***** me off how we didn’t get a left back.

Massengo was excellent Edwards I thought was out of his depth.

[Red Exile]

Unfortunately we don’t seem to be able to get hold of the ball or retain possession.

How many of our players get into Brentfords team?

Kalas switches off far too often for my liking. Mariappa can’t be bothered to stop the cross

It bugs me too how often we seem quite content to allow teams to get crosses in. Not just Mariappa, we seem to do it consistently. 

[cityexile]

Starting to get sloppy with the ball now. The rare times we get it.

[WarksRobin]

They’re bossing it now. Needs a change quick or we’ll be out of the game

[Sturny]

Feels like we’ve run out of steam

Their ex goalkeeper maybe...

What, Bristol City? Are you sure? 

[Red Army 75]

The imbalance of not having any left footed players in the side is really hurting us

If you look at who we have signed and how much they cost in the last year or so, and look what toney cost, it doesnt look pretty.

[LoyalRed]

Do we have a midfielder that can actually hold up the ball and pick out an intelligent pass rather than try to get rid of it as quick as possible !!!

Who knows havent seen half of our lot play this season

 

[Fordy62]

Ghoddos looks like Theo Walcott.
