MartinTyler Posted May 30, 2021 Posted May 30, 2021 Very pleased for Brentford...went to a very friendly Griffin Park a couple of times in the 70s....plus they had to sell Maupay and Watkins in recent seasons and still prevailed. Smoggy 1

Yeah I went to Brentford old ground. Wooden stand I recall, planks on the terrace. Pub in every corner of the ground. Def no probs with away colours there, family kind of place....

Used to be a few social housing areas but very gentrified , parts have always been very posh. I used the travel lodge hotel by Kew bridge a short walk from Brentfords ground for all away games in London as good price and easy walk to the tube, so know the place well.

MathyouWSW Posted June 10, 2021 Posted June 10, 2021 Probably not the right thread for this but...Harry Kewell has been appointed by Barnet as their new coach: They were very lucky as they were reprieved from relegation due to Macclesfield Town folding and Dover Athletic refusing to play for the rest of the season due to a lack of funding.

StringerBellend Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 I remember going to Barnett away supporting Southend Utd. Was last game of the season, southend finished safe but lower table div 3 at the time; a bunch of their fans had hired an open top bus to take them from Southend to Barnett they turned up at pub like FA Cup winners Barnets ground was basic to say the least. we spent a chunk of the game singing “Does the council, does the council, know you’re here? Does the council know you’re here?” There was also a secco who looked like Frank Butcher from eastenders so the chant became “are you Frank butcher? Are you Frank butcher in disguise” lower league football is ace pseudonym, MathyouWSW and WSWJACK 1 2

Yeah, got some great players this season. Kyle Wootton is a gun striker, I fear he'll get signed to some English One or Two club next season. The same applies to the Portuguese striker Ruben Rodrigues. Both have had a great season Jack Reeves is a great midfielder in his 30's Connell Rawlinson and Adam Chicksen are great defenders. Rawlinson was the star player last year. I was want Notts back in the in the English Football League and not the National League anymore.

Smoggy Posted June 13, 2021 Posted June 13, 2021 Hoping Hartlepool can do the job away at Stockport tonight and get to the final. Tough game for them.

Smoggy Posted June 14, 2021 Posted June 14, 2021 Well done the Monkey Hangers on making the National League play off final against Torquay. Hope they win and do it! Final to be played at Bristol City ground which is MUCH closer and easier for Torquay. Should have been played in the midlands / Birmingham area. MathyouWSW 1
