Villan_of_oz Posted December 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2023 He's brilliant!!! Just like I have been saying all along Can't wait fir him to be rightfully our leading PL scorer...

flamingsombrero Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Felt a bit odd and out of character. Did seem at the time there must have been an individual or small section that had massively overstepped. All makes complete sense in that context. Wasn't even like he did all that much, hardly Adebayor was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshVilla Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Why do fanbases get so ridiculously rattled when we beat them lately? Weirdly, the only ones that didn't were City fans. Had a look at the reaction of some Brentford fans online and on social media, and the vitriol that they're throwing at Ollie is a bit baffling. Some even suggesting that he's trying to tarnish the reputation of their club (I didn't realise they were such saints?). We don't yet know what the fan in question was shouting at him. He probably gets some level of abuse every game, as pretty much all players do from some opposition fans, but this guy must have been saying some really nasty shit for him to react like that.

Was mentioning his mother apparently. I dread to think what was said/how he said it. Fair play Ollie. Edited December 17, 2023 by Tom13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its maybe something to do with their 5th defeat in 6 leaving them clutching at straws. But their responses as you say are borderline insane. That he is just trying to deflect away from celebrating in front of them. That they made his career and that he isnt as good as he thinks he is... mentalists the lot of em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panto_Villan Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Hilarious overreaction from the Brentford fans (at least the ones on their forums). Bunch of whiny crybabies. I even saw one poster claiming Brentford have a “no dickheads” policy - how they square that with having Mee and Maupay in their team I don’t know. Anyway, should just emphasise to Ollie that he should stay where he’s loved. Here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's over 3 years since he left the club, for large profit, which helped them reinvest and get promoted. He didn't even start his career there, it was at Exeter.

Popular Post mjmooney Posted December 18, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted December 18, 2023 18 hours ago, His Name Is Death said: Brentford fans over at Griffin Park Grapevine being proper nobs about this. "Watkins ain't the brightest. Watch some of his interviews. Thick as cow dung" Of all the comments, this one is the most hilarious. Ollie is far and away one of the most intelligent and articulate interviewees in football. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I can see a problem or two with the Brentford fans' attempts to paint Ollie as an evil monster... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBOB Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Ollie's generally a quiet and reserved guy - that's noted among even his own teammates and other staff interviews. So they must have been saying some vile shit to get him going. All players hear a lot of things - and he's probably going to hear it more if he continues his red hot form and as if we continue in this title race. But I back him doing a point in the crowd after scoring the winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Excellent all-round performance at Brentford. Had everything. The sort that was lacking at the start of the season. He's been scoring throughout them all which is just really really lovely stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
