Brentford

One game away from the Premier League now.

Remembered they decided to use data / statistical models to develop players and run the club - not sure if they used it for tactics too but, 5 years later, they're on the verge of making it to the PL and are making some serious profit on players.

Got a smashing new ground too, been past it a few times whilst it was being built.

73 years of hurt in this case, may be about to end. But given their past play-off record, perhaps not.

would love to see them in the premier league next year

Yep would like them to secure promotion. Bored to death of the likes of Swansea and Fulham.

Miss the Forest fixture too. Shame they just lost out .

And utterly entirely and totally their own fault tbf

Anything that pisses off that fat odious @#%&! Martin Samuels is fine by me.

He used to love taking the piss out of Brentford and their footballing model but he's been very quiet on them recently. Still happy to support City and their owners as well.

holy $#*!.....what an absolute howler by the brentford keeper in the 105th minute with the score nil/nil

down 1-0 going into second period of extra time

Should be relegated for that

Soft from the keeper, but great spot and effort from the Fulham lad.

Ugh.

Another £#%&!ing boring yoyo team again.

If you told me Fulham were already in the PL, I'd just believe you.

Gutted for Brentford tbh.

£#%&!ing Fulham

Another good goal from the lad tbf.

Bombing forward from left back with 128 mins on the clock.

£#%&! Brentford, don't even know where it is...

Dreadful game. Tho the keepers dive when that first hit the net kinda made up for it

Keeper

Teams go into these play off finals now paralysed by the money involved in getting promoted.

Football clichè:

When scoring a late goal and retrieving the ball from the net to run back to the centre circle, a small fight with the keeper MUST break out.

Brentford have never *ever* won a play-off, that must have weighed on their minds. And of course, they still haven't

Fulham offer literally nothing to the PL and are very likely next season's Norwich
