Meanwhile under the radar...

...the Bees are buzzing. Fantastic manager, fantastic captain and fantastic team spirit. Never mind the Baggies and Fulham, this team is getting better by the week. They hit the post 4 times in the game against Fulham.
Watch the highlights, and the interview with Pontus that follows it. Then read the comments about Pontus. Guess who they play on Saturday? The Baggies. Is this where the Baggies lucky streak runs out?

Brentford area consistently decent side but I didn't have them down as promotion candidates.

However, if we're going to screwup autos and meet a team in playoff I would put money now on that team being Brentford, just as last season it was going to be Derby.

Brentford are in reasonable form but there are teams playing better (Wednesday, Blackburn).

In my mind, seems a good time to be playing Fulham. they've lost three on the bounce, probably means we will come a cropper.

Derby are poor and will get nowhere near the playoffs.

Forget that Stoopo. I want top spot.

I want 100 points.

Fantastic manager? Come on now. Let's not be hyperbolic.

I hear they've got a rather good Scandinavian CB!!

( I know a Brentford fan who keeps thanking us profusely for off loading him)

A sidenote to this game, here's what Scott Parker says about Fulham's next opponent:
."We've got a massive challenge ahead of us now against Leeds but as long as we keep trying we'll be okay."
Keep trying what, Scott? Sounds like you are in the middle of a losing run and don't know what to do next. One thing is for sure. Bielsa will learn the lesson from Cardiff, and won't be short of ideas about how to beat the Cottagers. If there was ever a good game to play after Saturday, this must be it.

If as you say Leeds will learn lessons from the game
v Cardiff does it follow that Fulham will have learnt
lessons from their last game? Or does just apply to
Leeds about learning lessons?
If all the Championship teams learn their lessons and
not just Leeds we are very well placed for automatic
promotion in 2nd place, everything being equal.

Your manager gave our team talk tonight. Nice try saying we were scared of you but ....

Enjoy your defeat next game

I think the possession, shots and general performance was 65% in Leeds' favour but in front of goal we looked as toothless as Brentford. But to get over that shocking goal error by Kiko took a lot of character. Everything considered, taking a point at Brentford is a good result.
