FRIDAY NEWS .......


It feels like I was mugged yesterday, Green Bay having somehow managed not to cover the spread, despite 19 first downs and 319 yards of offence, the Vikings "amassed" just 104 yards and a team history low, 3 first downs. The hosts just couldn't produce the goods in the "red zone".

Brentford have announced their new manager, who is, infact, the old one, or at least the caretaker appointment, Scott Fitzgerald ( that's him in the centre of the photograph), who has been given the job on a permanent basis. Must be the only temporary coach, who has "earned" the position, without winning a game during his tenure.

I heard through the grapevine that three people were offered the post and turned it down ! These are individuals that applied for the job, so it just goes to show the size of the task at hand. When they had a close look at it, none of them fancied the big blot on their CV ! Oh dear !

Anyway, I wish Scott luck.

Wide range of fixtures today, hopefully we will have a little more luck and find a few winners.

Back later.
