Brentford Community Stadium

Fourth Official : Keith Stroud
Swansea City will visit the Thomas Frank care in the community stadium this week occupying second place in the EFL Championship. Brentford have only ever lost one game ever in the history of football at home and that was to PNE who are an I away from being wood. They lost that game 4-2 and although people didn’t dance in the streets of PINE afterwards they did venture out for a jig. Brentford are long time contenders for being not very good at getting promoted which means they are quite good, but not good enough. They get players cheaply and then sell them on for loads of money and nobody asks any questions where all the money goes. Brentford supporters are quite polite. A few seasons ago the Brentford hooligan group of around thirty people attacked a small club on the outskirts of Swansea or not that close. They were beaten back by four sixty plus year olds and a woman. Brentford are not hard.
Frank Thomas
Frank is originally from Denmark but he doesn’t know Jan Molby, he is 47 years of age but acts like he is 12. He twists his face around like a Danish gurner and makes up stories, like the person you know did something but even though it’s obvious they still lie. He is married to his grandmother which is something people called Frank do in a Denmark.
Frank Thomas, Brentford Manager.
Brentford, so what do we know ?
Brentford is in Hounslow which is in Brent, or maybe not, where there’s a river, it used to be called David but now it’s called Brentford which used to be in Middlesex. You can imagine how confused the locals are, especially with Frank banging his gums all the time talking a load of toilet. The only people in Brentford two hundred years ago were the Hardwick family, they interbred and made Brentford what it is today. Brentford is boring, in 1682 it is duly noted it rained and in 1642 there was a battle there, no doubt all the local hard men turned up and got battered by the Pensioners Militia ( over 65’s Walking sticks brigade) Brentford has to be the most boring town in Britain bar Motherwell and Kidwelly, both of whom are in Ireland.
This man fell asleep in Boring Brentford in 1986, he is still asleep.
Proof of how boring the town is ?
Well, Pocahontas lived in Brentford for about six months in a house on the site that is now the Royal Mail sorting office (next to Pets at home). Of course that’s the clincher, next to pets at bloody home. I mean Pocah bloody Hontas lived there for six months. The winter nights must fly by when that comes up in conversation. Oh hang on, William Shakespeare used to call in to some slummy old pub there on his way home apparently. I mean how much scraping of the barrel do you need to do ? One more ? Nell Gwyn ( MAY) have visited once. Joke place, joke town, joke manager, joke everything, Joke on the pitch, joke off it blah,blah,blah.
More later, I bet you can’t wait.
The more literate of the side have done a pre match day spread, no cheese sarnies though.
 Brentford v Swansea City : Ends 1-1, Referee Steve Martin's Comedy Encore 3rd Nov 2020 22:47Swansea had a stoppage-time effort ruled out as Brentford took a share of the points in an intriguing 1-1 Sky Bet Championship draw. Referee Steve Martin took centre stage when the last touch of the game gave the swans the three points, but once again Swansea found themselves on the end of another bizarre away referee decision. Thats four points snatched away from Swansea in the last minutes of an away game in two outings.  0
Ryan Bennett returns to the Swansea City defence for tonight’s meeting with Brentford, in the only change from the weekend win over Blackburn.
The defender comes into the side at the expense of Kyle Naughton, who drops to the bench.
The Swans are otherwise unchanged from the 2-0 win over Rovers, with Freddie Woodman in goal behind a back three of Bennett, Marc Guehi and Ben Cabango.
Connor Roberts and Jake Bidwell continue at wing-back, with Korey Smith and Jay Fulton paired together in midfield.
Yan Dhanda is given the chance to continue his fine form at number 10, with Jamal Lowe and skipper Andre Ayew leading the attack.

I like it
Not forgetting Brentford Nylons. A local factory making tights for ladies. It’s what Brentford is famous for, that’s it. The Brentford manager Frank Thomas called in there and asked for discount on a pair of tights . He was told to do one. He almost resigned from his post due to this knock back. 👠|  |

Brentford tomorrow and Norwich on Saturday are both fancied by the bookies to beat us, gaining 2pts from those two matches might be better than gaining 3pts from those matches, time will tell. | |

Both teams will be a lot different in their line ups from the play offs and trying to predict results under the present sad conditions is a lottery.We look like we have replaced Watkins goals with Toney coming in and others who have come in are just starting to get up to the level required in the championship.In all honesty don’t think we are as good as we were last season yet but hopefully we can keep our players injuries down to a minimum,Norguaard our best player is out for a few more weeks along with Pontus and Baptiste and push for top six.I find it hard to get too excited watching on tv as I rarely miss a game home or away but I can take it or leave it at the moment and have stopped watching on ifollow.Let’s hope this virus is under control ASAP so we can all get back to watching football in our stadiums it’s frustrating thinking about how tonight’s game would have been played in front of a capacity crowd under lights with a fantastic atmosphere in our new stadium and sure you would have sold out your allocation especially being a new ground.Hope we win but going for a 2 2 tonight. | | | |

Your lot must be desperate to get to see the new stadium.
It won't be the same as Griffin Park though.
Shame.
Anything could happen tonight ... Cooper has realised everyone in the squad is able to do a job not just his under old England 17s and his favourites, and he is allowed to use substitutes before the 89th minute.
I,m hoping for a game worth watching. |  |

Yes it’s been a tough time not being able to get to see games there and say goodbye to Griffin park but at least I was there for as it turned out the last game v Sheff Wednesday.Our old ground was on its last legs and we were very lucky to get a new ground built just down the road.I agree it’s a hard one to call tonight. | | | |

My favourite away day of modern times is Brentford. Old school ground, pubs everywhere and we managed to nick a win after a cracking start.
Won't be the same at the new place. Be a tough game for us tonight, would snap your hand off for a draw. [Post edited 3 Nov 2020 14:35]

Yes there are many away fans who say the same about the whole day experience at Griffin park where all pubs are away fan friendly both before and after the game something that is sorely missed at the moment.Hope that is maintained at the new stadium as there will be an extra 1000+ seats for away fans. | | | |

Yes definitely Keith.
We are better than last season and they arent the free flowing goal scorers they were last season that's why I am quite confident about tonight.

I don't know about not free scoring, they have scored 16 and Toney has 9 already.
They are conceding more, if we can keep Toney quiet, we can get something out of it | |
