Who are Brentford playing today?

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:39 pm

Cornet is sexy.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:39 pm

What a finish

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:39 pm

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:40 pm

Cornet is so good. Never been as excited by a Burnley player since Glen or Robbie.

Brilliant

Paul Waine · Post by **Paul Waine** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:40 pm

I'm remembering Jan (?) 2016 at Griffin Park - when Tarks decided to withdraw from Brentford team. Some beautiful football and 3-0 before half time.

UTC

Has to be Jan - transfer window was still open.

ClaretEngineer · Post by **ClaretEngineer** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:40 pm

Absolute scenes at the Turf.

It’s 3-0 and Matt Lowton has scored with his head, whatever I’ve been drinking I’m gonna have more of it.

Another chance. Close.

Frank is fuming. New keeper in January I think, with Raya being out until March.

Conroy92 · Post by **Conroy92** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:44 pm

Lowton has become a real player, two fingers up to the haters!

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:45 pm

Steve has to take credit for reintroducing the TFC.

We may even get a mention on MOTD tonight.

Longsidebovril · Post by **Longsidebovril** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:45 pm

This keeper is hilarious

3-0 up at half time last time we played Brentford were we not?

By January they could find themselves in the relegation mire based on this 45 minutes.

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:47 pm

Lowton has been outstanding, back to the form of the back end of last season when he was probably our best player.

joey13 · Post by **joey13** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:48 pm

Good first half

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:50 pm

Absolute breath of fresh air. What a half. Absolutely brilliant.

derryclaret · Post by **derryclaret** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:51 pm

Bloody hell that was some half!

Devils_Advocate · Post by **Devils_Advocate** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:51 pm

Well thats about as good as it gets. Great save my Pope at a crucial moment and a good block from Tarks but other than that we could have had 5 or 6 and have played some brilliant football

Shout out to the clowns for belittling anyone who suggested Cornet could play up front

claretandy · Post by **claretandy** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:51 pm

It should be 5, they are awful.

Don't be daft

It will all be about what went wrong for Brentford.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:52 pm

What a half. Best we’ve played in a long time. Could / should have been 4/5. They simply can’t cope with Wood/Cornet, Lowton has been absolutely outstanding too.

Mrpotatohead · Post by **Mrpotatohead** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:53 pm

Fantastic first half and exactly what we all wanted to see. Proactive, forward-thinking and entertaining.

I said on Wednesday that I couldn't remember the last time I enjoyed watching a Burnley game, well barring a second half from hell, I can remember now!

SalisburyClaret · Post by **SalisburyClaret** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:54 pm

Usual hoof ball - exciting isn’t it!

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:54 pm

Great first 45, now let's keep a clean sheet, and hopefully add another couple in the 2nd 45.

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:54 pm

How close was the offside goal? It was hard to see on the screen here.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:54 pm

Absolutely brilliant half of football. I believe best half of football with Dyche, rivals the Forest home game from 13/14 season.

For some humble pie, I have been waiting for Roberts to be fit to get Lowton out of the team, but Lowton was superb in that half of football.

Gnulty · Post by **Gnulty** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:54 pm

Brentford just met a premier league team that knows all the tricks from the championsship....

Cornet was fine, it was Wood who was offside by his head, possibly a couple of inches.

KRBFC · Post by **KRBFC** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:56 pm

As many have said over the years, we look a considerably better side when we pass the ball. Without Cork and Barnes we are a dramatically better side

Sorry I was being ironic of course.

The headline will be City losing at home no doubt unless they turn it around 2nd half against Palace.

jos · Post by **jos** » Sat Oct 30, 2021 3:59 pm

I think I might just grab a beer for the second half and relax and enjoy this, Burnley are all over their defence, Wood and Cornet are breaking through with ease.

Thankfully without Vydra we don't look half bad either, so something in reserve at least
