We pay our first visit to the Champo today, & a mouth-watering clash is in prospect.
Brentford sit 4th & are nearing the end of their Griffin Park residency, as a new stadium awaits. West Brom meanwhile are the surprise Champo package, being joint leaders with Leeds United, and are managed by the charismatic Slavan Bilic.
Brentford v WBA @ 7.45pm
How can anyone not love Slaven? Incred character.

Brentford are currently managed by Thomas Frank, who is Danish. I'm struggling to think of any other Danish football managers in UK senior football. I'm sure there are 1 or 2 around, but doubt there are many.

Here's how Sporting Life see this panning out;
MATCH PREVIEW
Here's the Bees new ground, Brentford Community Stadium.
It's not exactly a looker, but if it does the job, happy days.
Three Goals
Please
Pretty built up to say the least, and I couldn't believe how they managed to fit a football ground in that space, especially being used to Hillsborough.
I was glad when I got digs just up the road from Twickenham Stadium, and I bought a pushbike that I could cycle to work on..... got an extra 2 hours in bed
Brentford and 4 please
