Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.

[Gav]

You can tell these lot have had some down time, much sharper all over the park.

We look like we're running through treacle. 

[Fraserkirky]

We haven’t played a lick of football yet

[OldEwoodBlue]

half hour

at home

zero shots

[Aqualung]

Can't view I'm afraid... Sounds awful. Is it actually that bad?

I genuinely don’t think we’ve stringed two passes together. Let alone had a sniff at goal. Horrendous all over the park. If they go up a gear they’ll be out of sight by HT.

[JohnD]

They're so much better than us 😂 n every department it's embarrassing.

How many extra players do they have?

[Tom]

Still not convinced by Douglas.

Well I am, I’m convinced he’s not very good.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

This has been piss poor fare.  

Brentford going to win this comfortably.

How have we regressed from the last two games, other than TM talking up the opposition?

The cynic in me would suggest that it's not so much regression and more that Brentford are just playing a lot better than our last two opponents.

Away commentators much better analysts on our team than the home commentators. They're picking apart some of the ridiculous tactics, including pinging balls forward to little Tyrhys in the middle while 6'4" Gally is out wide on the touchline.

Pretty damning stuff, it's obviously plain to see to all not swallowing the injuries/journey/possession/not a good-enough-squad bs that the likes of Kevin Nolan have swallowed lock, stock and barrel so as to play down expectations and take the pressure off our Tone.

Their left back looks the weak link. Need to get at him more.

We were the better team against third.

He was extremely lucky with the misplaced pass he made which hit the ref. Ref gave him the ball back, Douglas took a quick one and nearly hit him again!

Buckley gets cleaned out - they get the free kick.

This ref might as well put on one of those drab grey shirts.

[Stuart]

We aren’t just five years behind Brentford in recruitment, we are inferior on the pitch as well. Billionaire owners Venkys must surely be wondering why/how.

Quite embarrassing to think that ten years ago we were a PL club and Brentford were barely out of the fourth division.

Now that’s progress. Meanwhile £200m later, here we are.

[BigBar]

Any talk of keeping Douglas for next season should be a punishable offence!

[Fraserkirky]

Men vs boys here

[Tormund]

We’ve been poor but Brentford don’t look that special, only threat they’ve had was the attack for the penalty. 

[simongarnerisgod]

nice one bucko,get stuck in lad

By playing a winger there would help.

No idea how that was a foul against Buckley, he clearly won the ball first and the other guy got absolutely no where near it.

Terrible decision

More fool them, more suffering us.
