The virus has certainly not put these fans off, looks a full house Brentford v Arsenal & live on tv and a Friday night.

The truth is it’s not hurting football now at all , full house tonight :thumbright: :thumbright:

Watched it on Sky.

Great atmosphere and Brentford were brilliant. Fully deserving of their win :thumbright:


Arsenal's defending from set pieces is awful though. They wouldn't be able to defend set pieces in the Championship, let alone the Premier League.

Somewhat special circumstances. Great for Brentford. Who deserved win. Not sure its should be a sign that football will be sold out everywhere from now on mind. Brentford will be though!

Spot on. Playing Arsenal in the Premier League in a 16k stadium and Barnsley in the Championship in a 33k stadium is hardly comparable.

I know people who have reservations against going back to the CCS for a few weeks/months. No doubt Brentford have equally cautious fans but the difference is their seats have been sold to day trippers, glory supporters and “special occasion” fans.

Really was a great atmosphere and Brentford did deserve the win, but thought Arsenal were generally awful apart from Tierney and Smith-Rowe. Plenty of the ball and created some chances in the second half, but their shooting was awful and their defending even worse.

Not that impressive a crowd. We had a bigger crowd against Barnsley.

todays attendances are going to be interesting and i think a better guide...... couldnt read a great deal into last weeks tbh... most were a bit down and the few that were higher than average you could make a case for... Coventry 1st game back in the city and 4k away fans... etc..
