The Beesotted Brentford Pride of West London Podcast

The morning after the defeat to top of the table - and Champions elect - Norwich, the Beesotted crew Billy TheBee Grant and Dave Laney Lane dissect the match. And ask the question - can Brentford still get automatic promotion?

A fairly long and deef debrief in which they discussed Canos. Is he trying too hard? Is the season catching up on him? Why does he blow hot and cold and how much does that affect Brentford? Have Brentford solved their back up left back problem? Will their defence have their work cut out against more agile forwards? Brentford lost the xG battle once again against Norwich. 

Is this a worry that they seem not to be creating as much as they did before? This seasons Brentford v last season's Brentford what is the comparison? Which is the better team (not taking into account current league positions)? Can Janult and Norgaard play together? Would this team (no additions) struggle in the Premier League if we were to get promoted? Plus Swansea featured once again with their 90th plus 2 minute penalty that the cheated out of the referee

Plus they were looking forward to the Rotherham match with Matt Laxx from The Rotherham Podcast before it was eventually postponed due to COVID.

Brentford went to Loftus Road hoping to avenge the defeat up at Oakwell against a sprightly Barnsley side.
