Brentford win 3-0 away to Reading tonight although Ollie did not get on the score sheet. They are now 2 points behind West Brom who are away to Sheffield Wednesday tomorrow night themselves currently mid table and 9 points off the playoffs.

If Brentford continue to perform like this and Ollie becomes a serious target for any PL Club he could yet prove to be great money spinner for the Club and help us to attract and bring in a higher standard of player.

If Brentford go up, I’d say it’s long odds on Ollie will stick with the Bees next season - all the more so given they’ll have a spanking new ground and any contracts negotiated this summer are likely to be heavily impacted by COVID-19.

True but one way or the other Ollie will be in the shop window and as the old saying goes “money talks”. Leeds slipped up tonight only drawing 1-1 home to bottom of the league Luton so the Bees are now 6 points behind with both still having 7 games left to play.

Not quite right there Sexton, Yes Leeds are 6pts ahead of the Bees, but both have only 6 games remaining. WBA are 2pts ahead of the Bees but have 7 games remaining. The Bees do however have a double digit lead in goal difference over both the other two however

Five points gap again between Ollie’s Brentford and WBA after the Baggies 3:0 win at Sheffield Wednesday last night.

In a game that had mannequins as fans, and someone managed to get a flare on to the pitch :)
