cambridgeshire canary 6,866 Posted May 20, 2023 Incredible season, and fantastic result today given their lack of players and Toney right now.. Quite the uptick in fortures for them given they were in League two back in 2009 and only gained promotion to the Championship in 2015. Fair to say they're really showing how its done 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yobocop 1,105 Posted May 20, 2023 Just now, Danke bitte said: Why the hint of bitterness buddy? Can’t argue they’ve done blinkin’ well No bitterness at all, fair play to them but with Toney out until January and the fact they’ll lose players in the summer you struggle to see where they’ll get the points from. Hope they do well as it’s good to see a club like Brentford do well a similar size club to our own. also don’t be fooled by the OP’s true intentions of the post after yesterdays interview with SW where he mentioned Brentford - he thinks he’s being big and clever whilst trying to get the attention he craves. No mention of the fact they played spurs who have been dreadful for months? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No mention of the fact they played spurs who have been dreadful for months? We’ve played 4 games without Toney this season. W3 D1 and in each both Mbeumo and Wissa have scored (really ought to have been W4 but for a goalmouth scramble 95th minute OG equaliser at Forest- includes wins v Liverpool and Spurs). Raya will be a big loss but should be for big money after being bought for £3m. I think we’ll be OK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,325 Posted May 20, 2023 They have a very good Head Coach and a system that everyone understands and buys into. We lost our way when we had the same opportunity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Foggo 1,122 Posted May 20, 2023 And they invested £51m last year and will probably do so again this coming season. They seem to understand the sort of players you need to survive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope we don’t lose Phil Giles our DoF to anyone but I think if we do it’ll be to one of the top clubs. He came to the club with no background in football as one of Benham’s data scientists at his main business and got offered the job after a casual chat with his General Counsel in a lift on the way to a meeting. So you just need to find the right guy with a Maths PhD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
