From League One To The Premier League | Beesotted Reloaded - The Years That Shaped Brentford
Whenever people talk about how well Brentford are doing in the Premier League, it’s easy to forget just how far the club has come.Not so long ago, we were playing in the third tier. There was no Premier League football, no fancy new stadium and no worldwide attention. Just a club trying to find its way - and a whole load of twists, turns, disappointments and big decisions along the waySo we thought it was a good time to look backOver the years, Beesotted has recorded some brilliant interviews and podcasts as these things were actually happening. We’ve gone back through the archives and pulled together 11 of those podcasts into a special series - Beesotted Reloaded: The Years That Shaped BrentfordYou can check out the full series here, with links to all 11 episodes:https://beesotted.com/beesotted-reloaded-the-years-that-shaped-brentford/Some of the archive podcasts are also now available to watch in video format on Apple Podcasts, as well as being available as audio podcasts. So, where the video is available, you can actually see some of these conversations as they happened, rather than simply listening back to themIt’s a chance to revisit some of the moments and conversations that helped shape the club’s journey - from the heartbreak of that Doncaster match, promotion to the Championship and the plans for the new stadium, through the Uwe Rösler and Mark Warburton years, Matthew Benham’s arrival and vision, the creation of the B Team and eventually the arrival of Thomas FrankAnd in this podcast, Billy and Laney look back across the series and discuss the podcasts, people and events that shaped this incredibly important period in Brentford’s historyThey talk about what those old conversations tell us now that we know how the story turned out. Matthew Benham talking about the lessons he had learned and where he wanted to take Brentford. The changes to recruitment and the growing importance of data. The decision to scrap the traditional academy and create the B Team. The transition from Dean Smith to Thomas Frank. And the development of the ideas that would eventually become so central to Brentford’s successThey also revisit our conversations with Thomas Frank - including his involvement in recruitment, what frustrated him about the Brentford model, players who didn’t work out and whether the club ever regretted selling players such as John Egan and Romaine SawyersFrank also discussed the development of Josh Dasilva, the importance of the B Team, the players he thought could make the first team and those who might not quite make the step upAnd then there’s the data - xG, statistics and the infamous “Justice League”. How much should you trust the numbers? And can Brentford just be top of the real table rather than the statistical one?Looking back now, that’s what makes these old interviews so fascinating. They knew they were talking about important things at the time - but they didn’t know how the story was going to endThese were conversations recorded before Premier League football, before the worldwide recognition and before Brentford had become the established top-flight club we see todayThey capture a club experimenting, taking risks, getting things wrong, learning from them and gradually working out what Brentford could become.So this is Billy and Laney looking back at The Years That Shaped Brentford - and at the podcasts and conversations that captured that journey as it happenedIf you want to go back through the whole series, all 11 podcasts - including the episodes now available to watch in video on Apple Podcasts - can be found here:https://beesotted.com/beesotted-reloaded-the-years-that-shaped-brentford/ Hosted on Acast.

Beyond The Breakdown is back for its first episode of the new season, with Jacob "The Gowler" Gowler and Matt “The Allard” Allard diving into the stats and tactics behind Brentford’s unbeaten campaign so farHow good were Brentford against Spurs? Were Tottenham simply poor, or did the Bees completely dominate them? And what do the stats say about Sangaré’s impressive start?Then it’s on to Leeds, where Brentford produced an excellent first half before things went wrong after the break. Sunderland also comes under the microscope - how did they disrupt Brentford, and what did Keith Andrews change at half-time?Was Brentford lucky to escape Bournemouth with a point? And with Yarmoliuk, Jensen and Damsgaard all options at number 10, who plays when - and which option best suits different opponents and game situations?Then there’s Chelsea - a brilliant 3-0 win, but were there still warning signs in an imbalanced attack and the problems defending down Brentford’s right wing?The lads also look at what the stats tell us about Jannik Schuster and how he has settled into the Brentford sideLooking ahead, Aston Villa, Liverpool and Hull are next under the microscope - their strengths, weaknesses and where Brentford could cause them problems. And will Hull’s good fortune continue?Plus - the all-important question...How many points will Brentford pick up from the next three games?Don’t forget to check out The Gowler’s Substack for even more Bees stats and tactics: beesbreakdown.substack.comAnd don’t forget to join the brand new Beesotted Prediction League: beesotted.footballscoreline.com🎧 Beyond The Breakdown - Brentford Stats And Tactics Hosted on Acast.

Chelsea Your Boys Took One Hell Of A Beating! Bees Still Buzzing After 3-0 Victory | Brentford v Chelsea Review Podcast
Billy ‘The Bee’ Grant and Dave ‘Laney’ Lane are back with another Beesotted podcast – and there’s so much to talk about after a memorable 3-0 victory against Chelsea.A game of two very different halves… Chelsea arguably had the better of the first half, although xG had it even, but after the break the Bees absolutely owned it with Brentford celebrating a comprehensive victory.We look at Schuster, Schade and the very Brentford way that produced the second and third goals, as the Bees turned the game around in style. And finally, after all that waiting, Thiago gets his goal.But was 3-0 actually a fair reflection of the game? TalkSPORT’s Jason Cundy didn’t think so - so who really controlled the game, and did the scoreline tell the whole story?We’ll get into all of that, before turning our attention to the EFL Trophy, where Brentford secured a 1-0 win away at Bromley. Ollie Shield was the hero, scoring with a left-footed strike from outside the box that found the bottom corner.Now it’s international break time, with 14 Bees heading off on international duty. We’ll take a look at who’s away, where they’re going and the matches coming up.Plus, there’s a brand-new Beesotted Prediction League - you can get involved at beesotted.footballscoreline.com and your chance to get your name in the new Brentford Remembered book via www.legendspublishing.netAll that and more with Billy and Laney - and there are plenty more Beesotted podcasts waiting for you over at prideofwest.london.And don’t forget the Beesotted quiz at The Steam Packet for the Liverpool match Hosted on Acast.
