Got to admit I couldn't see much in Buckley when he first got into the team. However, the more I see the more he impresses me. Comfortable in possession, always looking forward, finds good space and always has his head up. The lad really has a chance if he gets game time next year and stays clear of injury.

So Walton shouldn't play then

Get in Gallagher, a proper brave header that.

Holtby our stand out for me. Always on the half turn and looking to hit feet quickly. Injuries permitting the team needs to be built around him next season.

I was optimistic on Brereton and thought it was a real statement of intent. I was very disappointed we signed Gallagher for what we did and said so on here.

You not seen The Damned United Amo? You should, Michael Sheen is bloody brilliant in it as Cloughie.

Yes it's a figure he's made up to help him actually make the point he was arguing against.

Where did you pull 6 million from? No way they are paying him over 100k a week, it'll be less than half of that.

Blimey Gav, you can't on the one hand say we need to wee with the willy we've got and then describe 9 million net spend wasted as 'chump change'.

Brentford are actually 8 million in profit on transfers in and out yet have managed to improve year on year. Good recruitment and good coaching/management not only works on the field it makes sound business sense too.

I really don't know where to start with that so I'm leaving it to someone else to find the words. I'm almost speechless.

Hope this European scouting network is looking at up and coming managers.

I don't know about all you guys but I cannot wait for this European scouting network to bear fruit. We'll be unstoppable I tell thee.

Pay offs not play offs.

Always nails it this fella. Bravo!!!

Great post. This should be pinned as a tick list during the close season.

I actually laughed out loud when that happened, especially when the camera panned on him looking so hapless after he did it.

No no no, this is when the much vaunted European scouting network kicks in.

Dreadful. At least go out all guns blazing, we never laid a glove on them.

Elliott Bennett is a truly appalling footballer. I'd be embarrassed to walk off the pitch having played as he has.

No, this is literally season over if we don't win.

First must win game of the season and the lack of intensity is frightening.

What a terrible performance so far.

Agreed, refer back to Beckham's sending off in '98. I don't think anyone would disagree that he deserved to walk.

I thought it was pretty ironic, bearing in mind he's got the phrase completely wrong.
