It was a strange feeling waking up last Saturday morning. I genuinely had to think about where I was after spending the previous eleven nights in a tent; a tent in a field on the outskirts of Glasgow.
An article I wrote for http://www.wearegoingup.co.uk…nothing new for Brentford fans, just a general news roundup. I may be writing this over a month since we were promoted, but it still hasn’t quite sunk in. Little old Brentford are a Championship club. Wow. I have been supporting the club since I was nine-years-old and could never… Read More Brentford Pre-season Summary
Here is the most recent piece of work I have had marked by the university (another Brentford article…). It was given 69% – a 2:1 – which I am pretty pleased with considering I wasn’t wholly happy about it and it takes quite a long time to get to the point of the article. Anyway, hopefully posting two pieces… Read More The Sports Science Revolution
WWWWWDWWWWWWWWD Well, who would have guessed Brentford would be in such a comfortable position at the start of the season? After being tipped for promotion early on after last season’s heart-breaking conclusion, the Bees started the season lethargically, peaking in a disappointing 2-1 defeat away at Stevenage on 12 October.
A plane crash threatened to put an end to Mark Devlin’s career in professional football, now he is overseeing a revolution at promotion-chasing side, Brentford.
I haven’t written for a while mainly due to the fact I broke my both of my wrists back in July. So now, having regained most of the movement and having attending four of Brentford’s opening games, I thought it was time I wrote a little piece.
So, we’ve reached the end of another rollercoaster season and had our hearts broken at Wembley yet again. Oh the joys of being a Brentford fan! But where do we go from here? Can we really keep up the momentum and make this year’s dream, next year’s reality?
Original article can be found here. Surely Sam Saunders has done enough to earn a new contract now? The pocket-sized winger undoubtedly won the points for Brentford versus Swindon Town on Tuesday with his introduction when it looked as though an underperforming Bees side, still recovering from the knock-on effect of the FA Cup replay… Read More There’s Only One Sammy Saunders
Simon Moore owes a lot to his idol. Growing up on the Isle of Wight in the 90s, Moore used to religiously watch his father’s team, Brading Town and particularly goalkeeper Steve Lawton. “I just wanted to be like him. He’s probably the reason I ended up being a goalkeeper.”
Just an old article… Thursday 26th August 2010 is a day that will go down in football history. This was the day that the world was introduced to one of English football’s brightest prospects: Nathan Redmond.
