The Beesotted Brentford Pride of West London Podcast

Off the back of a disappointing draw to second-placed Swansea, Billy the Bee Grant and Dave Laney Lane discussed the 1-1 'battering' of the Swans by The Bees the night before

With Swansea notching only 2 chances to Brentford's 21 and an xG of 0.25 to Brentford's 2.65, they asked the question should Brentford have put this game to bed no problem by half time? Or were they just unlucky and another day would have seen them bury three or four?

Plus we asked were Swansea's 'aggressive' tactics effective? Should Brentford be doing more to try and combat teams playing this way? And will that type of football see them over the line at the end of the season?

Plus Phil from Ringing The Blues Podcast gives us the lowdown on Wycombe Wanderers before the big match at the weekend

No frills. No gimmicks. In fact all gimmicks were banned.

There’s plenty to discuss this week, with the VAR affected League Cup Semi Final match with Tottenham to look back on, as well as further controversy surrounding Bristol City’s timeline ahead of the ‘suspension’ of last weekend’s match with the Bees – events that are more of an outrage than a Covid outbreak on the face of it. We discuss City coach Dean Holden’s recent quotes as well as a letter that has been sent to the EFL. The January transfer window is now firmly open, with the Bees sending some of their starlets out on loan, so we talk about how that knows back to cover for our first team, as well as thoughts on whether we will be sellers, or buyers during January. There’s also the matter of an FA Cup Third Round clash with Middlesbrough to look forward to this weekend, so we catch up with Jonny Bullock from the Boro Breakdown Podcast who gives us an insight from their camp. Enjoy this week’s podcast.On the podcast are: Dave 'Laney' Lane, Robin Hood and Liberal Nick.

Brentford came from behind at Cardiff on Boxing Day to secure a fine win to see them 15 games unbeaten.

After going behind to a wonder goal from Volkes, Sergi Canos upped the ante in the second half - scoring a hat trick in game where he could have possibly scored five.
