It will have been 16 days since we saw what football at the top end of things could look like by Arsenal, who made us look second class citizens in footballing terms.

This game is unusual this season, in so far as the bookies have us down as favourites to win.  Monday nigth, under the lights....but how empty will the bowl be.  With a boycott planned, kids for a quid, general sale tickets up for cheap, and Nuno's first home game, the atmosphere and attendance is anyone's guess.

Injuries wise, our Big Fucking German is big fucking injured again...reducing the options up front to the two Callum's.  Nuno chose to save ~86k in wages last time out, preferring the pace and mobility of Marshall over Wilson, and it will be interesting to see if he does the same thing here, or goes for a 'makeshift' centreforward.  And of course Soucek is back.

Other than that, there are no fresh concerns reported going into the weekend.

Predicted Starting Lineup:

Areola

Wan Bissaka   Mavropanos    Kilman    Diouf

Magassa

Fernandes             Soucek       Paqueta       Summerville

Bowen (c)

Subs: Hermansen, KWP, Igor, Potts, Guilherme, Marshall, Rodriguez, Wilson, Scarles

Predicted Score: 1-0 (Soucek)

Just not good enough 

Thanks Sullivan for not spending any of your own money  

[nychammer]

That’s it. Forget going down with Christmas decorations we’re coming down with the Halloween cobwebs 

[Takashi Miike]

that midget cսnt has managed to employ a collection of the most dire, negative, tactically inept managers in history. what sane cսnt would willingly employ grant, allardyce, moyes, pellegrini, moyes, lopetegui, potter, and now this cսnt. it's sickening how little he knows, or cares about the game

[threesixty]

I wonder how I’m gonna forget this game? I can’t keep this in my memory. It’s just sad. 

[Massive Attack]

Shocking what Nuno did with tonight's tactics. Hung some players out to dry.  

[collyrob]

Brentford only had one shot

What?

[Sir Alf]

Paquetas shot sums us up.  Awful

[Pub Bigot]

Anyone know what the record is for the least amount of goals scored in a premier league season? 

 

 

Probably Derby in 2008. 

[El Scorchio]

This is awful awful stuff. Comical even. 

[pdcwhu]

Brentford only had one shot

[goose]

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a team so bereft of confidence.
1-0 down at home and they’re strolling around like it’s preseason.

its fucking pathetic.

[Mr Logic]

Is their confidence shot? Have the protests helped?

[Vexed]

Relegation looks a probability now I think. 

[nychammer]

1 shot on target. New low.

Another dud.

We are going down, good. Start again with new owners and players who give a shit.

 

 

No we’ve had games without shots on target 

[Maverick180180]

Anyone know what the record is for the least amount of goals scored in a premier league season? 

[nychammer]

Is this what the death of a football club looks like ?  Forget relegation, that’s  nailed on, but who’s going to go that hole to watch championship or league one football. If we goo can see us staying gone. 

[Sir Alf]

Bowen will be off too end of season

[Pub Bigot]

1 shot on target. New low.

Another dud.

We are going down, good. Start again with new owners and players who give a shit.

 

 

We won’t get new owners if we go down. We’re stuck with him until he croaks it. 

[Nick QQQ2]

Nuno has managed to to erode any good feeling towards him in 90 mins.  This is our worst performance of the year.  I genuinely didn’t think that was possible.  Turgid

[Sir Alf]

Relegation without doubt and fully deserved

[El Scorchio]

Great. Down to 10 men. Cant even fucking send a physio to Mav. It feels that amateur

[Sir Alf]

Nuno aint the saviour or Messiah thats for sure. Any positivity from his first game has long gone.  Now Stavros is crocked

[twoleftfeet]

1 shot on target. New low.

Another dud.

We are going down, good. Start again with new owners and players who give a shit.

[Keep dreaming]

The stadium should be fucking empty until now.
Fucking pathetic from owners, managers, players to fans.

We deserve absolutely nothing
