Not sure about the next 4 games tbh, very tough, although after that have burnley, norwich, newcastle, would very much like some points from them games which i think we are capable of
Totally agree. I'm starting early at the pub tomorrow before the game, so by the time I get into the ground I will be well oiled and just pleased to be watching bees playing an amazing team. Can't wait

Melman - I haven't watched the Bees since I left London 20 years ago. Brothers are both season ticket holders...

If I wanted to come up for a weekend and see a game with them - which fixture would you recommend?

Bearing in mind I have exceptionally limited knowledge or interest in football (I do understand the offside rule though!)!
To be honest you will struggle to get a premier league game. We have 17200 capacity 12,500 season tickets 1700 away tickets and the rest go to members on a loyalty basis. I've been taking my Mrs and my 2 boys to The EFL cup games as they don't sell out and are open to the public once members and season tickets get the opportunity to buy. My boys are also season ticket holders but It gives their mum a chance to go, and she's hooked. I hope you get to go to a game the atmosphere is amazing. And I hope this helps maybe not

It does, thanks!

I might well be able to wing it if one of my brothers can't make a game, borrowing his season ticket - but it'd be nice if the three of us could get together.

The atmosphere was what always took me back to GP even without much interest in the actual sport - can't imagine what it's like now it's premiership and not Division 2!
Griffin park was special and always will be but we have taken it to another level it's amazing. Also going from 11,000 at GP we now have close to 17000 it's unreal and I hope continues

An amazing game the atmosphere was incredible, just getting over the hangover smile. Roll on West Ham next weekend, II think I will drive and stay off the beers. Normal service will resume at the Chelsea game. Come on you Bees

Just found out trains aren't stopping at Kew and Brentford, also M4 shut from junction 3. Going to be fun being a local derby. Well done TFL your timing is impeccable looks like I will need to get to the pub earlier than usual 😃

Poor first half today, better second half but I think our injuries are starting to show. Also seemed really flat in the stadium which doesn't help. Anyway on to Newcastle away

Great game today but I'm worried about the keeper and we're missing Ajer big time Well deserved point, roll on Everton next Sunday.

Another great 3 points cool
For sure we didn't play well but the atmosphere was great, the 12th man was in full effect. My next game is Southampton away, will miss the port vale game unfortunately. COYB

I would say we are both mid table teams and if we had played like I know we can I think it would have been a close game. You are right we didn't turn up and we were well beaten. Anyway every team has an off day and that was ours. On to Liverpool tomorrow.

Been a bit of a struggle lately but if we can get the Eriksen deal done it would be amazing fingers crossed. We are also looking at Brennan Johnson (Forest winger) who looks decent but not sure he's worth 20 mill!!

I went to Arsenal and it's the first time I've seen bees fans arguing with each other about certain players. Yes it's been a tough run but six points from the next 3 will put is in a great position.Saturday will be massive but if we all get behind the team and be the 12th man we will be fine. COYB
