Happy with that, would've taken a draw beforehand. First half was crap, but the changes worked out and we looked much better afterwards.

Got to be pleased with that point.
Farke very proactive with his subs. And they worked.

Agree, I'm ok with Aaronson but he should never start



Stach went with the cross and didn't come off..

1-1 final

The worrying thing was the original set up... which Farke got wrong, fair play on rebalancing but it was obvious.

Good point in the end considering how poor we were in the first half.
Brentford put in so much work in the first half closing us down they tired visibly towards the end and we were able to nick one.
We played the get out of jail free card today.
