Think we will improve a lot at Brentford

[Live by the sea]

Think the result and especially the manner in which they lost, will hit the team hard. I think we will see a much better performance, high energy pressing game at Brentford and I don't think we will lose there.

 

[whitelion]

Hope so.

 

[fleet]

I will decide on that late afternoon on Sunday

 

[clippedgull]

It can't get any worse, we need a positive reaction. Brentford are going to be well motivated and so should we.

 

[stss30]

I doubt it to be honest, banking on getting back to winning ways against Burton and expecting another torrid game on Sunday. Hope I'm wrong, though.

 

[Surf's Up]

If we're not at our best Wood, Judge, Jota and Vibe will rip us a new one so it's another very tricky away day. But a loss up there will not be the end of our season. We're definitely going through a slump in form atm but we'll turn the corner, possibly after the Brentford game.

I think a good show on Sunday is vital because if not it will heap loads of pressure on us to get 6 points against Burton & Ipswich

 

[Clive Walker]

Are Brentford really all that?

 

[pasty]

Lets face it, after last night's performance we surely can't get any worse.

Yes, they are. They beat us soundly at the Amex. We won't be able to put our best team out against them, either, so I'm not expecting anything.

Are Brentford really all that?

Maybe, maybe not, but they go into the game having smashed Villa 3-0 and we go into having been thoroughly abused by Huddersfield, I'd imagine they'll be confident.

Just feeling that 1st v 13th says a lot

This part is wishful thinking, with the game less than three days after chasing shadows all night at Huddersfield, with 28% possession.

Another game where Bruno had a total brain fart.

I always believe you play as well as the opposition allow....Hats off to Huddersfield they did not allow us to play..Brentford are a good side who with Newcastle are the only team able to get six points off us.

I hope for a win but would be content with a point.

 

[kingcole]

I also think we will improve. We have a decent squad and a decent manager who know what to do.

On other threads where we were predicting results for upcoming fixtures not many were expecting us to get much out of last nights game, so any meltdown is a bit OTT in my opinion. In a funny kind of way, this emphatic defeat might help to focus minds a to what we need to do to sort it out, where as a poor performance we we scraped a draw might not have done.

Still saying we need 8 more wins and possibly just 7 (as long as we overcome Reading and Leeds in those 7). Looking at our remaining fixtures we will be just fine.

Exactly....

They are very average with a couple of good players. They've just lost their best player.

We should be beating teams like this comfortably if we think we're good enough for autos

It's the Championship, it's a lottery. On any given day any team is there for the taking. Our lot aren't used to getting beaten, and certainly as badly as they were last night. We'll find out a lot about our team on Sunday, may they Stand or Fall.

 

[Foolg]

Extra 2 days rest, and having won 3-0 at home whereas we travelled up to Huddersfield and got done 3-1 chasing shadows.

Goldson/Hunemeier to step in, neither of whom played well against non-league Lincoln. It won't be easy.

Then again until Villa, Brentford had only won 1 in 8 at home and blow very hot and cold.

It's 13th. v 1st. which is a rather different thing. Three defeats on the bounce away from home now - habit forming!
