Merson08 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 To slate Brentford after he left but not highlight that there new manager has also turned them around into good form with 3 wins on the bounce. Brentford with their 8 losses are now only 6 points behind us with a game in hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is an average mid table championship manager and that exactly what he will turn us into if we keep him beyond the summer. I disagree, this club does have the pull to attract a better calibre if manager. I think you're wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted February 4, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted February 4, 2019 16 minutes ago, Avcol said: Bournemouth were bankrolled by Maxim Demin. Brentford to my knowledge don't have a sugar daddy. Not to say Eddie Howe hasn't done a fantastic job but Bournemouth did have plenty of resources. Didn't need to sell their players every summer. Benham (their owner) has put in millions of his personal fortune and is currently half-way through building a new stadium for Brentford. I’m not sure what the tipping point is to change someone from being and owner to a sugar daddy but I’d be fairly sure Benham passed that mark a long time ago. Highly unlikely Brentford would even exist without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he massively improved you from where you would be without him. He hadn’t won in his last 5 before joint us. Hardly promotion form and suggest they were already on a downward spiral.

Hasn’t worked in over two years, no experience of managing even in Europe let alone England, what do you think qualifies him for the job? He could play a bit though, slot nicely into our central midfield. May not exactly fit the lowering of the average age of the team though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villabromsgrove Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Smith has an attacking style of football which needs younger, fitter, ambitious footballers to make it work. We have to get through the next three and a half months as best we can and then start to build a Smith team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also a dead ringer for John Terry which would confuse things a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avcol Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 He could bring Zinho with him to plug the gap until Grealish gets back. Romario off the bench for Tammy in the last 15 if things aren't working out would be a useful option too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
