Sounds like Grayson's got the tactics wrong again. Too bloody negative in a game where we have nothing to lose. Lets hope he makes up for it in the second half.

Let's hope for a second half like last week's, attack after attack and lots of goal attempts on target and hitting he back of the net.

My guess is he'll keep things as they are, defend for another 25 or 30 mins and then put one or two creative players on to try for a goal.

But they have done something with it, they've peppered our penalty area and the pressure/possession they've had has resulted in a goal for them and a need now for at least two from us to get the win we want.

Or have I got that wrong?

All due respect, the Bees are an entirely different proposition to the cannon fodder we faced last week!
 
There's not really anyone on here thinks we can make it automatic so we should be enjoying the fact that we have the play offs to look forward too and making sure our best 11 are fit for the final were going to win . Otherwise were like a bunch of moaning Minni's putting our self's through the ringer for no reason . 1 dodgy pen is all that stands between us and an automatic side on there own patch with 45 to play , we can't be that bad .
 
Im having a laugh about it but seeing many messages from supporters at the game who are really puzzled by our negative approach to this game. Seriously need to be getting into creative mindsets as we head into the playoffs.

I think you have it wrong there penalty was a botch by the official and your putting yourself through it when you should be relaxing with a pint .
 
My half time opinions from the game.

First off, North End have been very poor. Slack defending, poor passing no attacking threat. Hopefully there'll be a change at half time.

Anyway, that was never a penalty - Brentford seem to love diving and certainly have the ref on their side. Like every other ref we've had this season, he's a clueless prick.

Improvement obviously needed but come on you yellows!
 
Alan Smart quite positive about our chances. But we need to start positively for sure. No subs. Late start, are they delaying things with Rotherham running 15 minutes late? Bee's 45 mins from auto promo or PNE 45 mins from the possible dream? COYW
