    Agreed. If we don't bring anyone in on time I thought Redwood looked more than capable.

    I thought Logan did well at left-back in the second half when Redwood moved further forward, plus O'Connor put in a good performance at right-back. They'd be my 2 full-backs for Saturday if we can't get anyone else in by then. Redwood does look encouraging though.

    Such a shame. He was playing very well and looked a bi improvement on Taylor. Hopefully it's nothing serious or long term but here's hoping Jake still signs

    Was impressed with what I saw before he was injured, solid and played some nice passes, it was when he ran past the Wtcombe player that he pulled up, it seemed he had reasonable pace

    Redwood also did well in my opinion at LB and when pushed forward in the second half showed some nice touches and combined well, would be reasonably confident if he started on Sat

    He's got a very good pedigree so let's hope it's just a pull rather than a tear and he can fulfill his potential with us.

    It all seems to have gone quiet regarding Mr Vignal. With no word on Bidwell, I would like to know how long before this chap might be fit again, and whether we are still interested. He looked very promising until his brief cameo came to it's unfortunate end.

    Oh dear. Thanks for the link. That's not to say we won't review things again at some point in the future, Uwe seemed impressed.

    Agreed. Fortunately for us (although not for him), we seemingly haven't signed him on a contract (yet) &/or paid a large fee.

    There is always the risk that a fantastic new signing might get crocked the minute they step on the pitch (as has happened in football over the years)

    This is a real shame and Vignal must be gutted to be seriously injured while unsigned at this stage of the season. Still it's a positive he's interested and hopefully we can review things when he recovers later in the year. Looks like we need a loan signing at left back in the meantime.

    Does anyone know how long he was training with us before the game? Did Uwe get a good look at him, or just the 30 mins match time?

    Has signed for Dundee United. I fear his unfortunate injury at the Wycombe friendly caused us to miss a good 'un there. Of course it won't matter if Bidwell stays.

    If you have looked into his career record, I am not sure if you have or not.....then I doubt he will last until December before getting another injury or another club.

    Don't reckon you're going to be on Greg's Xmas card list with comments like that.....let's wish the fella well.

    Smiffy loves everything Brentford and can never see any wrong in anything that they do, he's an absolute **** to players who aren't ours though. Nasty.
    Vote BLUNSTONE - maybe out of touch but closer than what we already have.

    You have nailed me in one attempt there.
    Can't think of any Brentford player who didnt have any redeeming qualities

    Except Paul Davis I suppose - but he could be the exception that proves the rule.

    I've seen it mate, I've seen you throw burgers at Stimson, punch Paul Roberts, wait outside to deal with Julian Alsop, get tooled up (burger flipping utensil) to deal with Gary Owers and spit at Martin Rowlands.

    The former agreed, the latter certainly not on the evidence so far I'm afraid.

    except we have bought a left back on a long contract by our standards.

    We had not signed Barron at the time of the Wycombe friendly. From what I saw of Vignal there, admittedly extremely briefly, I know which one I would prefer. I accept the comments that his injury record is not good and it would have been a risk in that regard.
