The Brentford capacity problem

I've been mulling this problem over & I think I may have a solution.  My inspiration comes from Scotland, Motherwell (I think) who allowed Celtic & Rangers to fund a new away end to house their travelling support.  I'm thinking we call the fund something like 'Brentford (who are destined for the Premier League apparently) have a shamefully small ground & need our help'. Nurse.

Is their ground much smaller than ours?

Capacity at Griffin Park is just over 12750 So yes a tad smaller than us and we were classed as small back in the days we were in the top tier.

Less than half the size of ours!

My money is on them finishing bottom half and us giving them a spanking on Friday week.  082.gif 049:gif

It is just crazy that they are turning away good money and not filling their ground because they are nervous about our fans getting a little too close to their fans. Surely they can re arrange some of the partitions so that all those empty spaces we saw in the earlier match are filled.

Last weekend Brentford sold out their entire allocation away to Millwall, will we do the same ?

We've played twice at the New Den and sold our entire allocation both times, I don't see why we won't do it again.
Never ever bloody anything ever.

Done Millwall plenty of times over the years but being held in a tunnel for an hour after the game really doesn't appeal.

Hmmm. Seemed bigger when I watched us play years ago - although i was only 7
