Will be good from a footballing perspective, I watched Swansea the other week, they were poor, but still won against Barnsley.
Bees going up it seems - good for them, they deserve it.
I don't think it's been a vintage year in the Championship, lets hope it's the same next season.
Swansea's style of moving the ball about looks very familiar to: me! Sideways backwards and occasionally forwards .
Not watching the game but hoping the Bees choke again.

Saw a couple in the Brentford end just after their second goal went in singing "Bees up Fulham down"! Sadly it looks as though that will indeed be the case!
Go Bees! They deserve their chance. We wasted our time.
Come on Brentford
The Bees are basically the Danish National side

My only hope is they get the living daylights kicked out of them next season and finish 20th as we finish 1st.
It's so bizarre for people on here to be backing Brentford. I cannot get my head around it. They hate us and are gloating and singing Bees up Fulham down. It's as bad as it could get for us today, and maybe Chelski will compound it later. Need alcohol to numb this pain tonight

Yeah ok then. Just like they did/have when we got promoted.
There should be a massive turn out for their open top bus victory parade, perhaps they'll take a diversion via the Cottage so the FoF Brentford appreciation society can join the celebrations? The huge 'Bees Up Fulham Down' banner will go down a treat.
Let's be honest, they deserve it. They're a good side and play football the right way. The PL will be better for having teams like them in it rather than another Burnley who have no interest in playing football. They're well run, not like QPR and other clubs who've just thrown money that isn't theirs at big name players. They're a small club that we should be able to relate to. I expect and hope they'll now get spanked most weeks and I will celebrate their relegation in 10/11 months' time but at this point I don't mind giving them a little bit of credit.

I kind of agree but with the team they had last season they shouldve been promoted a year earlier?
Let's all calm down and be a bit realistic.
When we went up last time, Brentford were probably the best team in the league and maybe should have been the team to go up. We all knew, if we were honest, that we would struggle in the Prem regardless of who we bought in. OK the loanees didn't help until well after Christmas, but tbh, did anyone really believe we were a squad strong enough to holder own.
I've been a fan for over 45 years and most as a STH so I think I have the experience to pass relatively unbiased
Opinion. Yes, we had many chances to save ourselves this year but sadly, bottom line, we were not good enough. Now is the time to rebuild from the roots we stil have. With a first class academy and a few of the existing squad, let's build a squad over the next 2 seasons that will gel together as one with obviously a few changes on the way and come back better equipped. Am I a Parker out fan? I'm not too sure, but what is very clear to us all, the current management is not working. I agree with most on this forum, TK has to give the manager, whoever it may be, the reigns to pick and choose his squad. It is without doubt at the end of the day, that the manager will take the ultimate blame or credit. Going back to Brentford, we'll done to them, a good squad, well managed and a unit well run. It will be very interesting to see how they do next season, but they will need to get 3/4 experienced premier league players in to have any chance of staying up.
It's rare that the team that wins the play offs will stay up. So Brentford still have it all to do? Well done for today but it means that we do not have to play them next season. I wish them luck but on crowds of 17000 I don't see much success for very long.see you soon

I don't want to see Brentford , QPR, Chelsea do well. I said to my son as he went out to watch the champions league final tonight that a Chelsea victory would finish off a thoroughly miserable day. He agreed !
That said you have to give credit where it is due and you have to admire their structure, quality of personnel and decision making over a long period of time. Well done to Brentford. I hope they come straight back down but I have a feeling they won't.

Every club in the world has it's quota of idiot supporters, sadly that includes us. Brentford have got to the PL on their ability, we got relegated we didn't. Get over it. We were lucky to get promoted last year. Over past 2 or 3 seasons Brentford have played consistently good football. Good lick to them. Hope they make a better fist of it than we did

Brentford won 1 more than us yet lost 2 more than us admitting they did score 20 more goals than us, we got the points to get in the play offs, same as Brentford got the points to get in the playoffs this year, are they lucky.

I'm not sure if loathe is the correct word, more like "jealous" maybe as we've always been more successful, it's their turn now let's see what they've got, we had a 13 year run in the prem and went all the way to the Europa cup final,

Your comment regarding Spurs is exactly the point a few of us were trying to make. Whilst we are all Fulham fans there are other teams results we look out for, either hoping they will win or they will lose. It doesn't matter where they are located or why, we all have our reasons for doing so.
