The Beesotted Brentford Pride of West London Podcast

With Thomas Frank’s departure to Tottenham Hotspur all but confirmed Billy The Bee Grant and Dave Laney Laney got together in the Beesotted Emergency Bunker to discuss the head coach situation at Brentford Football Club. The press has been in overdrive the past few days and the inevitablity of Frank’s move from West to North London seems a matter of when rather than if… As Brentford fans we are focussed on how developments affect our club, but the two Beesotted editors also discuss how they feel the likeable Dane will cope under Daniel Levy compared to Matthew Benham; who may come next at The Gtech, will it be Justin Cochrane or Jurgen Klopp; as well as whether Frank’s relationship with the Brentford fans will be compromised by the way the departure has played out so far. Thomas Frank’s track record at Brentford can never be questioned but, at these moments, all Bees fans share a mixed sense of concern, fear and uncertainty about the future… we hope this edition of the podcast reflects the views of most fans.
