Brentford v QPR

Playing Brentford at Griffin Park just never bodes well for us, it really is a bogey match for us.

We haven't got even a point at Griffin Park since 2004.

Our comeback win earlier in the season was our first win in 6 games against them at either ground!

In terms of the line-up he would be silly to change anything really. The only possible change could be Wells up front who didn't really perform on Tuesday. But Hemed was woeful against Boro so he's likely to stick with the same team.

I will be there too!...but in the with home fans

I would like to see Lynch come back at centre back, push hall up to site behinf Freeman and Luongo, Wozleck and BOS out wide and either Smith or Wells up front

Lumley

Furlong Lynch Leinster Bidwell

Hall

Freeman Luongo

Wozleck BOS

Smith or Wells

With Hall in front of him he has less pressure. Plus I would rather freeman play central rather than our wide. Halls means we can play Luongo and Freeman higher up the pitch.

All right for you lot - I have a brother who supports the Bees! We have to win!!

Thought you all might be amused by this snippet from the Brentford FC website:


Next year they can say that about Fulham too I suppose.....

P.S. Late news in today is that Geoff Cameron is thought to be fit for selection (although I cannot see him anywhere but the subs bench) and Angel Rangel is about 1-2 weeks behind him. So both should be serious contenders for at least the last 8 games.

I must admit the thought of Ollie Watkins down the left wing and Benrahma down the right does worry me, particularly as Furlong (and to a lesser amount) tends to give those attacking on the wing far too much room. Football London is guessing we will play 5 in defence - Wszolek, Furlong, Leistner, Hall & Bidwell. That will help, but a lot depends upon how Steve approaches this game. If we let Brentford press us back in our own half then we will be under the cosh (and it makes breakaway goals that much harder). It may be that Eze is suited to this game and should start, but McClaren needs to be ready to sub him if he proves ineffective again (and introduce BOS instead). I have gone for a draw and see nothing to change my mind, although I would remind everyone I have been relegated in the Prediction Leagues.....
