It's the heaviest last home game defeat since we lost 0-6 to St Augustus Priory in 1601.
Even that defeat was in part mitigated by the Rs having Tom Tinker and Will the blacksmith sent off in the second half. |

Remember that song - I wouldn't change you for the world, or all the pearls in the sea.
Who did the spoof version “ I don't want to go to work, on me bike in the rain “ |

What was the season when the school end briefly became the home end ?
I remember our fans singing, to Those Were The Days, “it's nice and warm in 'ere, it's nice and warm in 'ere” |

Brunel was the first to build very big ships, as alluded to in a folksong:
Down below the cargo hatches
There was room for football matches
With fans and referee
Oh! what a sight to see. |

Mr Nourry is a firm believer in a place for everyone.
And everyone in his place. |

Thanks mate - Brentford was always famous for pubs, there's a book called The Town Of Taverns which describes them and their history.
I think it's available to download which I did years back. Never seen it in hard copy. |

Seriously though…can anyone remember the names of the two Fullers pubs on the south side of Kew bridge ? Both gone now sold by Fullers for residential and office development.
I bet Fullers got a fair old whack.
Edit - north side of the bridge. [Post edited 23 Apr 21:01]

I rarely take much notice of what managers say. They tend to be very guarded and predictable which is understandable really. They have to avoid any statement that may be open to misconstruction, so stick to the book. |

I had a night shift job in Brentford and we used to go in a Fullers pub at the foot of Kew bridge.
Strange drinking Pride at 6 in the morning and watching dawn's early light shafting through the windows. The pub's not there anymore but ther's a new Fullers pub just along the towpath with a boating nomenclature. |

I worked for an engineering firm once.There was a bloke called Ted Bunce who had a big St George's flag on his bench April 23rd.
He would sing Onward Christian Solidiers, but he always put an H at the start of words starting with a consonant. So it was “ honward Christian soldiers, marching has to war”
Don't suppose it would be allowed these days. |

I'd like to see them stay up. I dunno why, but I've always had a bit of a soft spot for 'em
Similarly, Ipswich, Shrewsbury and poor old Carlisle. |

As I always say, we're all teetotal on here, so hope you don't drink too much pre-match….. |

If that game today had been played in front of an audience circa, say 1970 I think most of the crowd would've walked out. |
