It'll be on TV - London derby, Battle of the Bees, winnable (they're really struggling in the Championship since Dean Smith left for Aston Villa) and a decent crowd at The Hive.

Could have been worse - Middlesbrough away? That would have been shocking. Been there in 1997 and a shite town.

COYB'S! Glass is half full!

It could have been worse, at least it's not away to Accy. But it could have been so much better.
Will just have to play like we did yesterday, beat them and get a good 5th round tie.

and Dean Smith may well be picking some players to join him at Villa Park. Their form is very poor

Screw it. Forget what we could have got. We are Barnet in the last 32 of the cup at home. Let's win it.

We won 6-3 at Griffin Park in the Football League Trophy as well that season!

Better to have a chance, whatever chance it is, to progress than to get tonked by some kids who will never play a league game for Oil Money FC I guess

I was initially frsutrated, given what we could have had, but as above, this is winnable. We're at home, playing with confidence, they are struggling, might rest some players. Decent crowd without the scramble. I'll take that.

And also Adam Devlin, guitarist of the Bluetones, one of my preferred bands of the 90s supports them. His twitter feed is always good value when they are playing, would be fascinating to see what he makes of the real bees.

Striker Neal Maupay - he'd weaken Brentford somewhat.

Two years ago, National League Lincoln City were drawn at home to Championship side Brighton - and turned them over. We can do something similar.

Positives.

1. They are 20 points worse than Sheff Utd
2. They rested players against Oxford in previous round
3. They havnt won away all season
4. They ain't very good
5. Their fans are already talking about who they will draw in round 5
6. No such thing as red and white bees

If you said Brentford at the Hive before the draw then I would have thought ok it not a great draw but is certainly not the worse draw, especially when think it could be Accrington, Newport, Gillingham...


It was just gutting with the teams that was left.

I like the sound of that. Winnable tie.
