Borehamwood AWAY. FA Cup 1st round

On Saturday the 3rd of 'Movember' Brentford traveled Borehamwood FC.

This was seen by many as good draw for the Bees but fans also kept in mind the 2nd round loss to Wrexham at Griffin Park last season...

Both sides approached this game with reason to believe they could win as they are both near the top of their respective leagues and and arrived at the ground off the back of weekend wins.

As this was my first trip to Meadow Park I decided go check out what I could see...

My first point of interest was Elstree Studios where Eastenders is filmed. Sadly you cannot get anywhere near to the set...

After this I felt I saw it was approaching 12 o'clock AKA lunch time so I decided to go grab a bite to eat from what turned out to be a rather elaborate menu...this menu has to be one of the BEST menu's I have ever seen at a football ground...



As you can see by the photo above I was rather lost for choice on the food front!

So once I have finished my food [have a guess what I had] I headed to the 'Away End', when I got there I got my first view of the Meadow Park ground and I have to say I was rather impressed, I had a quick wander around then got to my standing position and it was game time...

Brentford lined up with a familiar line up of Lee, King Kev, Legge, Craig, Bidwell, Forshaw, Douglas, Adeyemi, Hayes, Forrester, Donaldsons and this experience would prove pivotal as this game was over in the first half as Brentford took charge and scored 2 early goals from Clayton Donaldson and Harry Forrester .
After the 2 early goals, Bees fans may have been expecting a large win but no, Brentford could not get passed an inform James Russel in the Borehamwood goal.

FINAL SCORE: BRENTFORD 2 Borehamwood 0.

The Buzz man of the match was James Russel [Borehamwood goal keeper] who kept the Wood in the game.
