Brings back good memories of our first season back in League One, with Leon Knight’s goals at Griffin Park in the second leg. Remember him scoring the second and thinking we were off to the final, then looking at the scoreboard and seeing 80 minutes still to play.
 
Brentford had 2 gift wrapped chances to get automatic promotion and blew both of them.

when a team is so close to going up automatically and doesn't make it, they usually fluff the play offs.
 
It's only three days away and we have a young team who need more recovery time than that. Don't do any training, Cooper, just tell them to stay in bed for the next 48 hours.

And, equally, the team that finishes 6th hardly ever gets promoted. But 'hardly ever' is a lot, lot better than nothing.

Since I just about live in Brentford I'll stop wearing my Swans shirts for the next few days. :D

Yes indeed.

They play some nice football, we are in with a shout. Regardless its good experience for a young squad/

Very true - on paper they have a stronger squad with a couple of really top clash players & have already given us a football lesson twice this season but as we saw last night football is not played on paper.

We cannot afford, in my opinion, to lose on Sunday as wouldn’t want them to rebuild their confidence - clearly a big win at home would be preferable but even a draw would keep us in the tie as we’ve shown all season we win as many away as at home.
