VAR ruins football, and we saw a glaring example of how. But as Jon Mates tells us, that second half was some of the most inspired Brentford play of the season so far. Never has a goalless draw filled me with as much pride. Greville Waterman is in studio as well to discuss the ins-and-outs of a very busy week in West London.

Leicester next, managed by....err. Here's to Jon Mate's prediction and not to Greville narrow victory!

Nations League, huh? It's been too long since Bournemouth. Way too long. It's good to have a Saturday of football up in Liverpool to look forward to, in the form of a once-again struggling Everton.

Glenn Houlihan and Greville Waterman discuss the Bees on international duty, with some frankly shocking trivia pressure put on Tim and Glenn. See if you can name the Brentford all-time Danes and full internationals better than we do!

Everton can be beat. They should be beatable. But Sean Dyche just does something to us on a regular basis.

...It's good to be thinking about football again.

...and then we talk about Fulham. A bit of PTSD, but healthy to get it out and discussed, they say.

We are one crazy team at home, the most entertaining club in the world right now. Sometimes you watch between your fingers, but it's never dull. Long may it go on.

A happy return to podcasting for the whole crew here at Across the Seas but Forever Bees. Thanks for being patient with our hiatus.
