How can I be blind to the fact that "Brentford have continually replaced good players with yet more good players, have built a fantastic infrastructure " when that is precisely the type of slow building that I am praising them for ?
They have invested in the infrastructure and lived on the pitch on what is basically an 'eat what you kill' policy. Sound familiar ? Yes, they have done it brilliantly and so far we have failed miserably but the tactics are the same.
But the fans at nearly all clubs, us included, are too impatient for that approach. Maybe it can only work at a tradiitonallly small club with low expectations where the fans do not have a feeling of entitlement to higher things because of their history like Sunderland.
Others agreed with my post ... the fact that you had a personal go at me rather than them makes me think you are attacking the poster rather than the post. If you want to debate the point I am making then do so (but try to do better than saying I am blind to the point I am making) but I can't be bothered to engage in personal attacks.
