Bummer, 5-nil cup loss.

Montana Moe · 01-06-2013, 10:26 AM

Meh, I'd rather they be focused on the league at this point.

Ok so I am not very happy with the result, but I was at the game today. It was a really good game which i guess is what you would expect for a top of the table match. Not sure Tranmere deserved to win it as much as Brentford deserved to lose the game. Anyway, here are some pictures:

What the pitch looked like at 9:00 am this morning when I got there to help shovel the snow off of the frost covers:

Anyway, good game tough result. I am going to head to bed because I have to get up early. I have my first chance to get FA Cup Chelsea tickets tomorrow at 10am and there are only a couple thousand left. Need to get in the queue first thing before they sell out. Hope you enjoy.

I noticed many League 1 matches were postponed so you did a really good job clearing the pitch!

carom · 01-19-2013, 05:14 PM

I've spent a lifetime shovelling. These Brits don't have the same skills, but its not their fault.

cam_wmh · 01-19-2013, 05:19 PM

Awesome pictures.

So, you're not a Brit, but you're helping clear the field at an English League 1 match? What's your story? I'm curious how this came to be.

We rate a 'Qatar Air' ad? Sweet! When does the Royal Oil money start flowing in?

Is this why Swindon has two games in hand?

GirlySports · 01-26-2013, 02:39 PM

I can explain more later, but right now I am on my way to the Brentford Chelsea game.

carom · 01-27-2013, 09:02 AM

I moved to west London last May and Brentford is the local team so I have been trying to go to as many games as I can. I think I have been to about 7 games so far this year now.

Back in December I saw a post on the team's website looking for volunteers to help out with forking (working the pitch) during the game so I emailed and volunteered. I was on the pitch during the MK Dons game when the players were coming out, during the half, and after the game. Quite a cool feeling. So I know the head grounds keeper now and help out when I can. For the Tranmere match I saw they needed help clearing the pitch, and because I live around a 25 minute walk from the stadium I decided to help out.

Brentford have been a fun team to support this year, and with plans for a new stadium in a few years will continue to push for more status from the other west London clubs.
