Today, according to the bookies. I know we have no fit centre backs but this still surprises me. Ipswich 2/1 to win a home match seems a big proce to me. Still not gonna bet though on ipswich though! [Post edited 19 Aug 2017 11:56]

It's about how much money has been bet - not what the bookies think. They couldn't care less either way.
They just adjust the odds to ensure they make a orofit
That's why they are called bookmakers |  | | |

That's not entirely true
Before any market came down, we were 7/4 and Brentford were 7/5. That decision wa did the football odds compilers |  |

I know how the bokies work, thanks. They set the initial price then, as you say, the price fluctuates depending on bets taken. Either way it seems bookies/punters fancy Brentford more than us, which I find surprising. | |

We have no fit centre halfs, are missing about 5 central midfielders and Brentford have been very unfortunate in all 3 games.
I can see Mick playing Iorfa, Spence & Knudsen in a back 3 with Ward and Kenlock as wing backs with Skuse, Downes and one other in the middle, possibly McG and Garner plus Sears or Waggy upfront. | | | |

I wouldn't say we were heavy favourites at all today. Given the injury list I'd take a draw here and now. |  | | |

I would too Brogs
Though with the way the fixtures have turned out, (1st v 2nd, 4th v 5th and 6th v 7th) a win today would make the table look nice. Early days or not, it would make for very nice reading if we could win.
I can't see it being anything other than a goalfest.
Score draw.
2-2 I'll go for. | |

If we line up and attack, we have more than sufficient fire power to beat a below average Brentford side. If we defend then I agree we could be in trouble. But I don't think we will. | | | |

I agree that all-out attack is likely to be the best policy in these circumstances. At least we know that our 'keeper is one of the best shot-stoppers in the League.
Brentford may have been "unfortunate" to only lose or draw so far, with some considering us "lucky" to have won all three - but what that actually means is we have siezed our chances and they have not.
We certainly now have a chance-siezing set of forwards. |  |
