A couple of new famous fans. RGIII..now that's cool. Maybe more of a Gatorade moment

Famous, you say, hmm

 

[bee1958]

Ironic singing of Bus Stop In Hounslow in the West Stand around 85’ when we were nailed on to win. Perfect timing and tone.

Who are they?

 

[Andrelux]

Who are they?

What's a roster? Is that another word for a cockerel?

 

[ChesilB]

Who are they?

I'm glad you asked. No idea.

 

[aslan]

Who are they?

American handegg players who moved into punditry/broadcasting

 

[CTBee]

Who are they?

Former NFL players

I don't know what was going on in the game at that point, but I can't imagine it's a reference to Hendersons slow walk at Anfieldc last summer?

Henderson ran to the ref to grass on Thiago for moving a couple of inches closer to ball from a Chelsea free kick (over the temporary spray line).

This pissed Thiago right off and he gave a Henderson a mouthful.

There’s a US college football thing at Wembley this weekend and one team is staying at the Syon Park Hilton so possibly over for that. Funny that Brentford is on the list of things to do as a famous or famous(ish) person visiting London

Bloke from Canada next to us in West Stand yesterday
Flew in on Wednesday.
Goes home tomorrow.
Said he just had to get to see our game.
Also said he couldnt have chosen a better one to go to.
F**k knows how much he paid for his ticket......

Particularly love the reaction (or rather non-reaction) of all the other players around, of both sides,

 

[To Bee Someone]

Sorry Torbay. Robert Griffin III was a bit of a thing about 10-15 years in the NFL draft.

Yes, one of the most famous players in that period IIRC

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

It’s what you have with your beef and Yorkshire puds on a Sunday.

 

[Wooburn Bee]

The once mighty Chelsea and the poetic left foot of Cole Palmer hoofing their first possession into the North Stand, Saracens style. Is this what it has come to?

That was frankly bizarre.

 

[Wooburn Bee]

History repeating itself - Carvalho free at the back post in injury time, just like last year.

And from a Schade long throw from about same position albeit this time not directly. Quite Deja vu! Was probably about same minute as well!

 

[horshambees]

After a controversial beginning

Controversial to some yes,but not too all.

 

[horshambees]

Yep. Mine took great delight in wearing his kit to football this morning and asking everyone he saw in a Chelsea top if they enjoyed the game last night

My youngest hasnt taken his shirt off since he got home from school yesterday.
He is asleep in it now for the 2nd night running.
Crawley Bowl got an eyeful of it this afternoon at his mates 12th B'day celebrations.

This has been deliberate tactic for some teams. PSG did it a lot in 2024/25. Push the opposition back and press them hard.

Not cute what Chelsea’s plan was though. They were sh*t.

Haven't we done similar too??
Along with a big boot up in the air......

 

[Beelated]

On field: Schuster beating Rogers(?) in a foot race to put the ball out for a thrown-in.

Off field: I saw this on the big screen after the game. A moment this young boy will never forget, especially when he saw himself on the screen, too.

That’s what it’s all about. Truly memorable. Just love it.

I have just found out via the Futbology App that the win against CFC was my 500th Bees win that i have seen in all my years watching this great club.
Not a bad one to notch up 500.

Assume you keep good records of every match you attend. I used to but let it slip years ago which is a shame.

I'd love to know for me. No records kept. Missed very few home games from 1970 to now except circa 75 - 79 when I played Saturday afternoons. A load before 1970 too. First game circa 1962 when mum worked at the club and got complimentary tickets from Malcom Mcdonald for the family. Dad was a supporter too from the 1930's.

Time to close this thread, I reckon.
