    New ground that received mixed reviews. People miss Griffin Park and its pubs between each stands but how is it for anyone that has been? Plain terrible or not that terrible?

    Great little ground tucked between a load of apartment blocks and friendly home supporters. Good view from the away section. Drank in the The Exchange Tavern before the game about 5 minutes walk away. Nice pub with lots of craft beers. Mixed pub with both supporters allowed in with colours on.
    Down side they didn’t sell beer in the concourse.

    Is small though.

    What if Brentford got into Europe? They'd have to play home games somewhere else wouldn't they because of the capacity?

    I think the Club have missed a trick if I'm honest, yes they do now have a new stadium for the size of their fan base but I would worry as a fan how they continue to keep up with the Premier League pace. Considering their from London they should of tried to maximize revenue streams with a bigger capacity to attract tourist football fans as you have seen with both West Ham United & Fulham, unfortunately for them their not going to be able to extend on that site.

    Could keep ticket prices high though.

    But ticket sales are pretty small to income from elsewhere.
