The Beesotted Brentford Pride of West London Podcast

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Brentford finished off the season on a high - beating Preston 3-0 and pipping them to 11th place in the Championship. A topsy turvy season for The Bees who showed some signs of potential for the future with B-team graduate marcus Forss scoring a 25 yd goal. Josh DaSilva causing more problems and reinforcing his position as a valuable new addition to the squad. Canos finishing the season on a high. And Neal Maupay showing how he is the best striker in the division scoring 28 goals despite being banned for three matches and not having a match against Bolton to get the chance to up his tally. 

We spoke to Bees and #PNE fans in the pub after the match

Brentford’s game at Bolton was called off due to Wanderers players boycotting the match due to not being paid. The Beesotted crew made their way up to the North West regardless as they - as had a number of other Bees - had already made their travel arrangements. 

And the day panned out to be one of the most random away-days in a very very long time. 

Starting off at Bolton’s stadium, the day moved onto the town of Chorley where the Beesotted crew met up with morris dancing crows. Drank in a bar in the middle of an outdoor market. Met up with Wigan. Man City. Blackburn and Bolton fans. There was a mini love-in with Bradford Park Avenue fans. Plus they took a tour of the local Chorley bars.

Bank Holiday Monday. Leeds came to town desperate for a win to get back on track for automatic promotion. But Brentford were having none of it - knocking the wind out of their sails with well taken goals from Maupay and Canos.

The Beesotted crew met up at One Over The Ait on Kew Bridge to shoot the Breeze over the Leeds game. Peruse Norwich who came from nowhere last season to win the league this season. And look forward to the Bolton match at the weekend - chatting to Paul from Proud Wanderers.
