Final Score MK Dons vs Brentford (EFL Trophy)

[Banana]

Even this U21 have 8 staff on the bench. And that's without those attending to Bentt.

 

[Jim Rourke]

Been down a while and Luka has not moved at all. This looks very grim

Over 10 minutes.

 

[Untouchable]

Charlie Goode was down comforting Bentt which tells me i) what a decent pro Goode is and ii) it’s going to be a very nasty injury.

2 sets of medical staff and St John’s Ambulance is a very worrying sign.

 

[ChesilB]

Over 10 minutes.

Very worrying. Only good news is the players don't seem overly distraught.

 

[ChesilB]

Charlie Goode!! FFS!

St John’s Ambulance will be just there to carry the stretcher.

 

[Untouchable]

Some decent applause from the home fans as Bentt taken away on a stretcher.

 

[Jim Rourke]

Straight off into the onsite ambulance

 

[Slabs]

Looks like Luka's leg got trapped under the defender as he slid through.

Take Luca off by the shortest route and a trek around the pitch. Meanwhile the kit left behind gets carried off by the shortest route.

 

[Bigbee]

that did not look a good delay , must be serious

 

[Jim Rourke]

Straight off into the onsite ambulance

Forget that. Off to the dressing room

 

[BEEcool]

The players that went to check on Bentt after it happened were looking away and pulling their shirts over their face. One of the medics also signalled to the bench by crossing his arms. Its clearly something bad.

Doesn't quite explain a 12 minute injury however.

 

[Brentford Bob]

So. Charlie Goode not only scores but also puts our best player in hospital.
Oh, and Nunes doesn’t seem able to get past him either.

Tremendous.

Crossed arms just means "substitution required"

He did mark Ronaldo out of a game once remember.

Yeah, can only assume some sort of break/dislocation. Hope he recovers well whatever the issue.

 

[BEEcool]

Not when it's a St Johns ambulance bloke doing it

 

[Beelated]

Second goal given after the MK winger gets a handful of the defender’s shirt, but the ref allows play to continue. Ridiculous non-decision.

 

[bexleybee]

A dry bumming from the franchise

 

[stevil]

Oof.

 

[JANORAK]

A bad evening. Let’s pack it all in for the night and go home.

 

[Bigbee]

turned over to England V a country I cant spell's B team , this is crap too

 

[Jim Rourke]

Been really disappointed with this display. These boys are better than this.

Gifting the ball time and again playing out from the back.

Apart for a few minutes before their third we haven’t got out of our half.

Sure Luka’s injury will impact them. Many of this team can be so much better

 

[JosephBFC]

I reckon there’s about 100 bees in the away end here. A very challenging half for the young bees but we’ve still managed to fashion a few very decent chances. MK have put a good team out and we are getting bullied in the middle of the pitch. Thoughts are with Luka, who has only just come back from an injury. Unclear what the injury was from here, I presume broken leg?

 

[Ghost]

Saunders out

 

[Bigbee]

you dont see balls of wool and knitting patterns in shops any more .Or patterns to make clothes

OG ,silly sausage

 

[Jim Rourke]

A few moans about Gustavo. He has been involved in many of the few (yes a contradiction of terms) positives.

That said, tonnes of work to be done on the defensive side tracking back

I’m in the very back row. Don’t want to upset anyone if I stand

Against a professional league team, it's exactly as expected.

Year after year, PL teams richer than us put their kids out and they get turned over as well. It would be awful if a PL team got to the final of this competition.

Part of me thinks it's good they get the experience of playing a men's team. The other part of me (3rd division Brentford) thinks that PL teams should have no part in a cup that should be reserved for lower league clubs.

 

[VML87]

You don’t want to go up Brentford

 

[busheybee]

Our best opportunities have come when we've attacked with pace and got in behind them. A lot of the time though, when we have had possession, it's been slowed down. Possibly not wanting to risk further loss of possession and a tonking.
It's very definitely been men vs. boys so far.
Loads of stewards around which is a bit weird when there are so few here. And they were giving everybody a completely over the top, full-on pat down and searching on the way in. Far more than I've experienced in a long while. I told them it was all a bit overkill and what were they really fearing when we're about a 100m from the next batch of fans. All unnecessary though they did say it was compulsory for every away fan at every game. Certainly not something I've experienced on my travels of late.
Scummy club.

 

[Jim Rourke]

This is becoming embarrassing

Yes agree. The team we put out is capable of better I would suggest. Some of the closer watchers of the B / U21 I am sure could provide a more accurate opinion and maybe destroy mine

All PL U21 teams losing currently…

 

[Banana]

We're going to win 5-4.....

 

[Banana]

6-5

 

[North London Bee]

It’s really what you expect when a weakened team with no forwards comes up against a decent, strong Division One team.

Nunes certainly didn’t look up to it unfortunately.

 

[Bigbee]

can we have the first two minutes back , we looked good then

 

[bexleybee]

5-0 to a roundabout

Hooked at ht. what do I know

 

[South Acton Bee]

Is this turning in a nightmare and shows why no u21 side won this competition

 

[Beelated]

The young boys are getting a bit of a battering, but this is a great test for them; not just physically, but mentally as well, especially at the injury to Luca and now down to x10 men.

It takes a lots of effort to keep focused in these circumstances with MK continuing to play at a pretty decent pace which will take its toll.

They’re going to be very disappointed, but they will come back stronger after gaining the experience of this evening.

 

[Untouchable]

Not really. This is what happens. Ipswich have conceded 4 tonight and Liverpool are losing to Doncaster.

 

[A Real Mysteron]

I remember when he joined he said he wanted to win many trophies.
Well the Freight Rover won’t be one of them.

Well it be a very important lesson for the young bees
