The Beesotted Brentford Pride of West London Podcast

 It’s a absolute BUMPER edition of the Pride of West London podcast this week with loads of deadline day stuff to talk about and also being the pre-Stoke City podcast too. 

The Beesotted crew met up at One Over The Ait pub in Kew Bridge - a stones throw from Brentford’s new stadium - to discuss the comings and goings of the transfer window.

Except the transfer window hasn’t really shut - the real closing date being Aug 31st. 

Ryan Woods was a hot topic of conversation. He didn’t go during the window. But with the loophole in the regulations, Swansea City still have three weeks to tie him down if they want to via the rather iffy “loan with a view to buy permanently” rule as explained in this article (https://beesotted.com/deadline-day-loophole-brentford-could-lose-key-players/).

Will Ryan Woods still be at Brentford come Sept 1st?

Who are all these B-team players Brentford signed up this summer? Some look rather good.

We talk to bloggers and podcasters from West Brom, Birmingham, Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday, Nottingham Forest and Leeds about their transfer window. 

Plus we look forward to the Stoke match at the weekend and chat to David from The Wizards of Drivel podcast in Five From The Hive.

Brentford got a well deserved three points at home to Rotherham - demolishing them 5-1 with goals from Maupay (2), Watkins, Canos and McLeod. 

Billy Grant, Dave Lane and Gary Paul linked up with Aaron Paul in the LoveSport studio to discuss the match. Who stuck their head above the parapet?

With Ryan Woods on the way out to possibly Swansea, who looks most likely to take his place. 

With the transfer deadline on Thursday, will we be able to hang onto our other players - with Mepham and Watkins getting shown some love.

Looking back to our Championship bloggers feature on Beesotted (click here for part 1 and click here for part 2) where all 24 championship bloggers gave us their views on their team and how they would do this season, we look at how they are looking after playing their first game.

Football is back. Brentford faced newly-promoted Rotherham. They scored five goals with only one reply.

The new season is almost upon us. And the Beesotted crew met up at The Distillers Pub in Hammersmith - in a beach hut in the garden - to discuss all things Brentford.

And there was plenty to talk about including the rumoured courting of Ryan Woods by various clubs including Swansea. Will he stay or will he go? And if he goes, who will replace him from within Brentford? And from outside?

Plus the rumour of Nico Yennaris being sold has been circulating. But we have locked down exactly what club seems to be tickling his fancy by going on a stag do route of Eastern Europe before going farther East.

Then we hear it from the horses mouth. Alfie Mawson himself. Out on a night at the boxing in Manchester. His pathway to the first team was blocked - hence he decided to make his moves away from the club. But who was it at Brentford who blocked him getting any first team action?

We have a new feature - Games Gone! - looking back at the good olde days. When the game was absolutely perfect.

Off the back of the Beesotted poll, where over 60% of the 500 people who responded felt that The Bees would finish in the Top 6 - we look back at the pre season reviews by the podcast guests who reviewed Brentford’s last season and made their predictions for the forthcoming season.

Then we look forwards to the first match of the season with Rotherham fan Axholme Miller who gives us his thoughts in Five From the Hive. 

And the Beesotted crew give their predictions on the Rotherham game.
