Brentford vs. Bradford City. A game of 4 halfs

Brentford vs. Bradford City in the F.A Cup 2nd round replay was the game many thought should never of happened but we won't go into that...

The game went ahead and what a game it was. Both sides began strongly but it was Bradford City who took the lead in 34th through Reid but this seemed to motivate the Bees and Brentford equalized right on half time through Marcello Trotta.

The second half was a close one and was a goalless one.

So it went to the extra 30 minutes.
This extra period started badly for Brentford as former Bee Alan Connell put a penalty away past Antoine Gounet  in the 94th minute to make it 2-1.

This once again only spurred Brentford on it was loan striker Trotta who fired home again in minute 102 and then just one minute later Clayton Donaldson somehow slotted home from a difficult angle to make it 3-1 to Brentford.

Just after the small break at half time in extra time the Bees once again capitalized through inform Harry Forrester to make it 4-2.

FINAL SCORE Bees 4 Bradford City 2

Brentford go through to the 3rd round of the F.A Cup Sponsored by Budweiser to play Southend United

Brentford vs. Bradford City. Here we go again...

So tonight Brentford replay vs. Bradford city for a place in the F.A Cup Sponsored By Budweiser 3rd round and a trip to Southend United.

This game is the game many thought would not happen after events at Valley Parade when Bradford played a un-registered player and then got thrown out of the cup but won an appeal so here we are...

Bradford City come into this having beaten Arsenal on penalties in the Capital 1 Cup and then drew 2-2 with Southend United on Saturday.

Brentford come into this unbeaten in 9 NPower League 1 matches and on the back of a 2-1 win away vs. Notts County on Saturday, the Bees sit joint 1st in the league.

I'm predicting a 2-0 Brentford win

Scorers to be Donaldson and Hayes

Notts County 1 Brentford 2

Brentford traveled to Meadow Lane in good league form but contrasting cup form of late.

The home side took the lead after a momentary and uncharacteristic loss of concentration from the Bees back line as Tony Craig unfortunately put the ball into his own net.

After this the visitors seemed by all reports to be in control of the game.

This dominance drew the opposition level through Adam Forshaw in the 36th minute.

This control continued but the Bees couldn't get passed the County keeper until the 88th minute when Clayton Donaldson bundled home to continue the Bees fine form of late.

Bees cup drama

This week Brentford have had a busy last week or so with the F.A...

To start off, the first team had a replay with Bradford City in the F.A Cup 2nd round. This game finished 1-1 so a replay was arranged but the F.A took the Northerners out of the prestigious competition as Phil Parkinson's played a loan player which they did NOT have permission to play. 

This decision was appealed, this appeal was surprisingly won and a replay has been arranged for at Griffin Park next Tuesday.

Next off the young generation of Bees players took to the hallowed turf of Griffin Park in the F.A Youth Cup verses Reading in the 5th round   

The week at GP. [+MK Dons match report]

So this week was eventful...

We will start with last Tuesday's match away at Southend United in the JPT.

This was a game that most Bees fans would have wanted to win but then again may have thought of the JPT as a distraction to the club's hope's of going up to the Championship.

Those fans who doubt the need for the JPT will now be happy as Brentford lost 2-1 at Roots Hall and are out of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy

Next we get on the road to Wembley [for a short time] as we talk about the whole Bradford situation, are they in or out?

To sum the story up briefly, when Bradford played the Bees in the F.A cup 2nd round the game finished 1-1 and a replay was arranged for next week.

However Bradford have been kicked out of the competition for fielding a loan player who should not have been in the team as he did NOT have the correct forms handed in to the F.A.

Bradford have appealed this but no team has ever won an appeal.

Now we head back to Griffin Park

Brentford vs. MK Dons was seen as a genuine 3 pointer and it did not dissapoint...

MK took the lead through Lowe in the 14th minute, but this seemed to spur the home side on and the Bees upped their game and hit home a equalizer through Clayton Donaldson just before half time.

After the break it was the 'Dons' who scored next through Gleeson in the 53rd minute but after that it was the home side again who raised there game and in truth controlled the game until.

This domination saw the Bees begin to open up Milton Keynes and it was inform Harry Forrester who leveled the scores in 72nd minute. Harry is bound to be being tracked by clubs in leagues above. There where representatives of Ipswich Town at Griffin Park for this game.

After this the game was controlled by Uwe Rosler's men and they scored and won in the 89th minute through hit-man Donaldson to continue a phenomenal run of form and moving them up to 4th, just 2 points off 1st place...

Get down to Girffin Park tomorrow night to support the Bees youth team vs. Reading...

BRENTFORD through to F.A Cup sponsored by Budweiser 3rd Round

Bradford City have been thrown out of the F.A Cup for fielding an ineligible player.

The club did NOT have the permission needed in time to field  on-loan player Curtis Good.

To field the player, Bradford needed to have had written permission sent in to the F.A by 12 noon on the day of the cup match, they failed to do this so Good was ineligible to play.

This decision is subject to appeal by 5pm today.

If Bradford fail to submit an appeal then the 2nd round replay at Griffin Park will NOT take place and the Bees will play Bury or Southend AWAY in the 3rd round.

Brentford vs. MK Dons preview

On Saturday Brentford entertain MK Dons at Griffin Park.

Both sides come into the game having had a weekend break from the league. Both sides played in the 2nd round of the F.A Cup sponsored by Budweiser and then Brentford played Southend away on Tuesday night in the JPT. The Bees lost but I and many other fans are glad to be out of the competition as it gives us the chance to focus on our campaign to get to the Championship.

Both sides are riding high in the NPower League 1.

MK are in 3rd place

Brentford in 5th but just 1 point splits the sides.

There are a few former Red and Whites back to Griffin Park as Dean Bowditch and Charlie MacDonald will return.

There are also 2 former England international players in the Dons setup as Alan Smith could well line-up against us and Arsenal legend Ian Wright is a coach at Stadium MK.

This will be another tough test for Brentford but we have played really well recently so we have a good chance...

I'm going for a 3-1 Bees win with Donaldson, Forrester and Hayes on the score sheet
