I’ve supported Brentford for 40+ years. For most of that time we were indeed rubbish… a third / fourth tier team with no hope of reaching the Championship, let alone the Premier League. What Matthew Benham has done is phenomenal. I’ve never seen him open up like this before… I’ve actually never seen him interviewed at length before. Brilliant interview. Absolutely fascinating. Credit to the interviewer too, who is both engaged and engaging (love the comment about Beto 😂). Brilliant, insightful interview. Thank you.

What an insightful interview. As a Brentford fan all I can say is thank you Matthew for saving our club and taking us on this incredible journey.

I’m a Bournemouth fan. Brentford have always been similar to us. As much as I hate them for being our bogey team and beating us in the playoffs, I am amazed by their success. I always write them off and get proven wrong.

one of the best run clubs in Europe and also one of the best recruiters in the game ....They pulled off the coup of the century in Caoimhin Kelleher a world class goalkeeper for 13 million OMG

Funny that he mentions bringing Frank in helped implement a friendly culture at Brentford when people say that’s perhaps the reason Frank failed at Spurs

When he gave the examples of 6M. Dwight Gayle transfer to the lost opportunities of Eze and Olise there's plenty of Crystal Palace connections...🤔😉 Perhaps Crystal Palace it was his benchmark...😅❤️💙🦅
