    New Season, New Hopes

    WE ARE BACK! Across the Seas but Forever Bees returns for a 6th season, all gloriously spent in the Premier League.  What a long, strange trip it's been. The brilliant Glenn Houlihan and Greville Waterman come in to ASFB Towers to discuss what may prove to be our most successful season yet.  Or not.  There are no easy seasons in the PL. What a difference a year makes.  Everyone had us picked to go down last year at this time, and who could blame them.  But 2026-2027 is on paper our strongest squad ever, which coupled with the giddy good feelings around the squad suggests this could be a season for the ages.  Or not. If you would like to take part, or if you have any thoughts on this podcast you'd like to share, please do not hesitate to contact me at timsearls@hotmail.com.  We could use new voices such as yours!   Text the pod! I'd love to hear from you directly as well - please email me at timsearls@hotmail.com.

    Draw Specialists Strike Again!

    If you're hunting for a place in Europe, it's definitely two points dropped.  If you watched the match maybe you're wondering how we got the one.  Crazy days at the Gtech as Brentford's last home match ends with a wimper, then with a bang. Sorting out our stumble to the finish line is Greville Waterman and Glenn Houlihan.  Absolutely a fascinating conversation about the ups and downs of a sometimes difficult spring. Text the pod!

    Seventh Heaven

    We apparently have an apartment leased out for the year in 7th place, and we move back there this week with a convincing win over relegation threatened West Ham.  The end of the year is always fascinating, as little events become blown out of all proportion as the points left dimish. Greville Waterman treks into the studio to talk about where was are and where we might be going, with a strong finish.   Text the pod!

    Drama at Old Trafford!

    This is why we enjoy this great game!  Chances at both ends, a howling crowd, a match with ebbs and flows of dominance.  Sometimes in the Premier League you're quality isn't there, and you win somehow anyway. Sometimes you play one of your best matches of the season, and get nothing.   Here to help Tim and Greville figure out a match with with more twists and turns than the Maine coastline is Abhi Goyal (he of the Red Lion Massive).  Abhi is so well informed and his opinions so smart that this will entertain and inform.   Text the pod!

    Brentford at Fan Fest in Tampa!

    Instead of trying to unpack a dismal morning at home to Fulham, we focus on the glorious events of the latest Fan Fest.  Our correspondent in the field Michel Cowdry has come back to ASFB Towers to report on the impressive show that Brentford Football Club put on at Fan Fest.   Worth a listen this week not only for Michel's stories from Tampa but also for the outrageous picks our resident 'expert' on all thing football makes regarding next weekend's game?  Is he right??  We'll see.

    Every match is a battle

    ...and eventually if you only have a small army that takes its toll.  Greville Waterman and Tim Searls are in the studio to talk about an Everton match that will live long in the memory.  Somehow we're still seventh (it seems we've been 7th since Christmas!), but with what's left of a depleted side running on fumes, can we stay there?   The small business of Harry Wilson and F*lhum next!

    The Break comes at just the right time

    A beleaguered Brentford gets a point at Elland Road - a remarkable feat of some brave and determined athletes at the end of their limits.  We get to that match eventually, but first lets have a wonderful conversation with Bruce Muni (he of the Church of the Red Lion) about his history as a Brentford fan.  Greville Waterman and Tim Searls can't help but going down some memory lanes along the way.

    A Cup Hangover

    Brentford appear to be staggering a bit, with an injury-hit squad and some weary legs after a grueling season.  But not here at ASFB Towers, where we have the luxury of bringing Glenn Houlihan in off the bench, which strengthens us incredibly (he really should be a starter here).   All is not lost after a difficult month or so, and if you'd offered us 7th by mid-March we'd have be more than happy back in August.  We take such positives as there is from the Wolves match and we move on. A really interesting conversation as to who plays and where for the Leeds match follows, which is alone worth the price you've paid for this podcast. Text the pod!
