The downs of football

The hope does not take long to disappear.

A poor performance and the opportunity to control their future and possible promotion has gone.

The reason- pressure and anxiety? Lack of fitness after so many game and loss of movement and style? Poor passing and no real pressure on the opposition.

So back to likely play-off process after the last round of games next Wednesday unless wild things happen.

COYB.

Lockdown Football and Hope

Possibly the biggest goal in Brentford’s history:pic.twitter.com/iqIZSwpQfB— Essential Brentford (@BrentEssential) July 17, 2020

As the saying goes currently…”we live in strange times ‘.

Football in the Championship as well as the Premier League has restarted behind closed doors as a result of the pandemic.

Brentford have come back after the lockdown break so well with eight wins. They have slowly pulled in WBA and this is the round with 2 games to go. It started .. and ended.. with WBA one point ahead with the Bees having a better GD.

But the Baggies have screwed up by losing to Huddersfield – so now Brentford have the future in their own hands. Four points needed from their last two games. One tomorrow v Stoke away and then home to Barnsley who a rooted at the bottom of the table.

So now a big, big game tomorrow.

Down to the Globe in Windmill Road to see the outcome.
