OutByEaster? Posted October 21, 2022 Moderator Share Posted October 21, 2022 Danks in charge then with a smattering of youth team coaches. Usually when a caretaker steps in for a game it's a free hit in a way, whereas this is one where we could really use the points, having gotten rid of pretty much the entirety of the first team coaching squad, this is big step up for Danks. He's a Brummie and has a lot of experience in coaching, but seemingly in quite specific technical areas, this is a big change for him in what he's being expected to deliver. I wonder if Austin McPhee is currently our assistant manager. There's an U21 game this evening, I'm guessing those coaches will also be on the sideline on Sunday. It'll be ramshackle, and given our current position in the table, it'll be important. Deep breaths and crossed fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The U21s have really struggled recently, they've been on the wrong end of some damn good thrashings. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I think the fans will be bang up for this and will see us to a win. Do need a big performance from Ty and Konsa against Toney though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 Let’s not dwell on the past and let’s look forward. Just a solid 90 minute performance and a clear plan on how to beat the opposition would be nice. No more magic moment nonsense please. Martinez Cash Konsa Mings Young Dendoncker McGinn Ramsey Buendia Archer Watkins Subs: Olsen, Bogarde, Bednarek, Chambers, Nakamba, Sanson, Coutinho, Bailey, Ings. I just can’t see Nakamba or Sanson starting as they’ve had zero minutes and think it would be suicidal to start one or both here. Bring them off the bench and build up some minutes into them that way if we think they can offer something. Let’s just see a change in attitude and show some fight and quality. 1-1 and something to build on UTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 We never beat Brentford at home. Frank will show us what a properly managed club is like. 1-2 Brentford with us flapping about trying to bring in someone to fix this utter mess.

duke313 Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 No idea how we will line up for this one. At least we won't see a midfield of McGinn, Luiz and Ramsey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted October 21, 2022 Moderator Share Posted October 21, 2022 In our excitement over the change of manager, can we please not forget that Ivan Toney is a complete prick who insisted on showing a Zulu Z sign last time he visited us. I for one will be doing my part to make sure he knows he's a cock. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBOB Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) Can't imagine Danks changing it up too much and he will recognize a point, no matter how dour it is, will be valuable. Don't expect a gung ho side. Seeing as how we have no idea who Danks will line up - I will pick the side I'd expect if you were playing a tough Brentford team with good spacing and danger on the counter. Brentford have either played a 352 or a 433. We need to clog the midfield and make them play around us. Fight and scramble and maybe we can get a point just out of effort. Emi Cash-Konsa-Mings-Young Buendia-Dendocker-Nakamba-McGinn-JJ Watkins Ugly on paper but let's not fool ourselves into playing free flowing possession football. We need to make them go around and not through and fight through this one. Edited October 21, 2022 by DJBOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't underestimate your chances, With Gerrard gone that could be a bonus for you, He seemed to be going backwards with you, Plus we have 4 core players missing and have a poor away record so far this season, Anything could happen, Hold on to your hats!!!
