On this week’s episode, Mike, Craig and Dan dissect the 2-0 defeat away at Chelsea last Saturday.

Brentford were left ruing missed chances following a positive performance that unfortunately ended with Liam Rosenior’s first Premier League points in charge of Chelsea.

We chat about the multitude of spurned opportunities in front of goal, whether Kevin Schade is being unfairly scapegoated, and if Romelle Donovan needs to start seeing more Premier League minutes after his debut at Stamford Bridge.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Craig and Dan look back on a SPECTACULAR night of football at the Gtech, as Brentford beat Sunderland 3-0 to climb to FIFTH in the Premier League table.

Two more goals from Igor Thiago, as well as Yehor Yarmolyuk’s first senior goal, secured all three points to Keith Andrews side in a statement victory at home.

We chat about even more penalty heroics from Caoimhin Kelleher, Vitaly Janelt’s continued inspired form, and Igor Thiago making history by becoming the highest-scoring Brazilian in a Premier League campaign.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Callum and Dan reflect on a HUGE away win at Everton, and a point at home against Spurs.

Thomas Frank returned to the Gtech and gave us a very Brentford performance… against Brentford. That culminated in a boring 0-0 draw, but there was nothing boring about Keith Andrews’ side’s win away at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Igor Thiago’s hat-trick meant the Bees start 2026 in SEVENTH place, just a point outside of the Champions League positions.

We chat about the Vitaly Janelt remontada, Mikkel Damsgaard’s inspired return to the XI, and Sunderland at home on Wednesday night.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Dan and Callum reflect on the 4-1 demolition of Bournemouth at the Gtech.

A Kevin Schade hat-trick, as well as a fortuitous Bournemouth own goal, sent Brentford into eighth place in the table, with the result meaning we have accrued the most points ever at this stage of a Premier League season.

We chat about Schade’s 10/10 performance, January targets for Phil Giles and Lee Dykes, and a different kind of performance from Igor Thiago.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Craig and Dan reflect on a huge 2-0 win away from home against Wolves.

After a fairly uninspiring first half, Brentford - and Keane Lewis-Potter in particular - ensured Bees fans would go into Christmas with three points.

We chat about KLP’s performance and why it’s an important period for him, the league table ahead of Christmas, distinguishing between playing style and the managerial appointment, and Brentford’s upcoming run of fixtures.

Dave Azzopardi of Talking Wolves joins Mike ahead of Brentford’s trip to Molineux on Saturday.

Rooted at the foot of the table, and having only amassed two points all season, Wolves come into the game on Saturday desperately needing a win to keep their slim hopes of Premier League survival alive.

Dave highlights concerns from the Wolves support over the current ownership structure which led to protests at Wolves’ last home game, Rob Edwards’ start to life as manager, and how he expects Wolves to set up against Brentford.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Craig and Dan dissect the 1-1 draw at home against Leeds, and talk about the future of Keith Andrews at Brentford.

It was a frustrating afternoon for Andrews’ side at the Gtech, but it looked as though we’d gotten away with it when Jordan Henderson slotted him his first goal in red and white. But Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s header meant the spoils were shared in West London.

We chat about our style of play regressing under Andrews, why we keep dropping points from winning positions, and the project under Andrews in the long term. We also talk about our upcoming games against Man City in the Carabao Cup, and a MASSIVE trip to Molineux on Saturday.

On this week’s episode, Mike, Craig and Dan reflect on two more defeats on the road, at Arsenal and Spurs.

We answer all of your questions, talk about the horrendous away record with important games coming up away from home, and preview a visit from Leeds on Sunday.
