wfc-2uk has been unable to make contact from the ground, so this is a summary of the WM point of view.

We did start 4 4 2, but with Atieno on the right wing and James up front. Whatever Merson’s intentions with this, it didn’t work, as Brentford went two up within ten minutes.

The rest of the half was completely dominated by Brentford, who could have had more goals, with Oakes, at fault for the first goal, from Rankine, making one great save.

The Saddlers have had no possesion in midfield and have created nothing. Brentford right winger Tabb is having a field day as first Fox, then Smith who move to full back when Fox had to take over from the injured Westwood, got nowhere near him.

Unless we put things right at half time, this could get embarrassing.
