    Brentford Irish

    Five Irish players and another couple eligible, so why not?

    Alan McCormack off the mark for Brentford this afternoon. They are on course for a fourth league win that will have them hovering around the playoff positions.

    Brentford was made famous by the the lunatic alien in the advert, he's DJ Alan Freeman and he actually had Brentford Nylons on his bed, paid for with his own money, so he claimed.

    Who has been looking up single Muslim? Do we have a jidhadist in our ranks.

    I know we never hear from our meeja friend anymore but I wouldn't have suspected him.

    Funny he was always going on about the independent and INM having an agenda yet he seemed to be on a one man crusade against them. Ironic really.

    Huh?

    Brentford players probably too low profile/not good enough?

    It's there in black & white!

    Saw their game yesterday, they have a no. of young quick lads who caught the eye, but be surprised if any of them are eligible...

    The 5 Irish are Judge, McCormack, Douglas, O'Connor and Bonham and the eligibles are O'Shaughnessy and Hogan.

    Only Judge belongs anywhere near the senior set up and I wasn't touting anyone for a senior call up.

    They have just enough Irish players - while perhaps not high profile enough to warrant constantly updating their own thread - to warrant a grouped thread instead.

    Brentford could be a nice little club within the next 5 years. They've committed to playing a nice brand of football, and they're starting to work hard on the underage setup. They'll be moving to a brand new state of the art stadium in two years time I think, in a nice catchment area of West London. I think if they keep up their current trajectory there is no reason why they cannot become established in the Premier League by the end of this decade

    They were very unlucky not to get promoted automatically to the Championship the season before last when they'd an amazing last minute encounter with Doncaster. I don't think it's the worst club a young Irish player could end up at.
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    They currently play at Griffin Park. They'll have to hand back their Irish credentials if they leave such an obviously Irish stadium.

    The sad bit is he has probably posted it in this thread as intended.
    Relevance of reply and sense of content in the reply has probably been affected by too much meths over the years.
    Can't somebody help him?

    Third goal of the season for Jonathan Douglas. Brentford on course for a fifth league win and the playoffs in touching distance.

    An Irish midfield goalscorer! Stan was on to something...

    I didn't even realise he was at Brentford until I heard his name watching the Football League show.
    Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?

    I'm still traumatised by his miss one on one with Cech a few days after the Cyprus calamity.

    Last season's supporters’ player of the year, Alan McCormack, has provisionally been ruled out until February.

    Talks over a new contract for joint top scorer, Jonathan Douglas, have stalled.

    No Irish namechecked but interesting article nonetheless on how Brentford is being run. The tie up with Uxbridge High school bit particularly interested me.
