The new stadium is just half a mile down the road, so the pubs could have a future with the bfc supporters. (Unlike the Hammers pubs around Boleyn Park. You feel such pity with Hammer fans to leave such an intimate stadium for the horrid Olympic stadium).
I'm a saints supporter, have been for a long time. However, my aunt lives very close to the ground, and I now live in West London too, It's a proper club, with proper support. I was gutted to see the wet blanket of a club, Fulham, promoted to the prem over Brentford. Hopefully they'll get automatic this season.
As a Charlton fan, when in England I would always go to Griffin park to watch the Super Bees play, when my lot were playing to far away. I always had a soft spot for the bees and loved being able to park up with no hassles and wander in and sit/stand wherever I wanted. I have some wonderful memories of going to Griffin park and always loved the humour, banter and love/loyalty the Brentford fans had for their club! I hope they take a step further this season and make the big time and stay there for a bit! Good luck and thanks for the memories!
As a (rather young) fan from Belgium I’m really glad I’ve seen all the pubs and Griffin Park in its glory at least once, it was a really wonderful experience 🐝
Went Brentford a few times as an away fan. Blinding stadium. People bang on and on about shit hole stadiums - the best stadiums as an away fan are the 'worst' ones because they're all so traditional and fun, proper away matches.
@@coloneldecker it’s way more fun . The sanitised premier league is awful. Now the championship is turning into it and the games are dull as the support is not bouncing
as a middlesbrough fan i always loved to come to brentford for away games the stadium was something special. it brung a different atmosphere than many of the other championship stadiums, i will really miss going there. i really hope the new stadium will be just as good. But best of luck from Teesside
Find it hard to believe that you can go out with the players at the end of a season. At least at a professional club. That is fantastic. What a brilliant thing to have! Hope Brentford fans can have that experience for many years to come. We're only fortunate to have experience as our club is semi-pro. The start of season cocktail parties is fantastic fun. Ended up going down a bar with a few of the players after last year's function.
This music is amazing. Fantastic showcase of a fan culture which is just the way it should be. Great work. But sad to see Griffin Park gone. I managed to get there once, got a ticket for the standing terrace and it was amazing. The fans around me welcomed me (as a german "tourist") and it was such a great thing to be able to stand in an english stadium. It is the right way to watch a match when you want to be passionate, no doubt about it. Bring standing back man, look at the atmosphere in other places like Germany, it has got something to do with being able to stand

Brentford fan, grew up in Brentford a few streets away from Griffin Park. Proud of how far the team has come, hope in the year ahead we can continue our good form and finally win the promotion to the Premier League we narrowly missed out on last year!
Great video. From a Luton Fan here we also celebrate with the players in the pub when we win promotion and recently avoided relegation . That’s when you know you have a club that has strong links to the supporters and the community. You would not see that sadly and any prem Club.
For a Coventry fan this hits rather close to home... Especially with London Irish playing their games there, didn't know that was the case. At the end of the day the fans are what make a stadium a home, corporate or not- and seems like these have it in droves
11:07 Funny thing is, my club play at a modern 30 000 seater built in 2013 and if I want a beer at half time I have to go around 35th minute as well. So I guess all stadiums have that problem. But that's ok, you kinda get used to it!
@@DC42087 I am a fan of old fashioned grounds such as Griffin Park, the way it’s tucked in the houses of west London and the fact it had 4 pubs on the corners. The ground was the only ground in the top 2 levels of football with standing terracing and the floodlights especially at night made it feel so special.
Been to Griffin Park a few times over the years with Watford, always enjoyed it. We had a bit of a rivalry back in the late 70s/early 80s but happy for them getting promoted to the PL and the new ground.
One of the best grounds I've ever been to. Was there in 2018 for the last game of the season, baking hot day and great football in a proper old ground.
and i was fortunate enough to be on the right side of this result... was a fantastic atmosphere that day, i don’t think anyone would have thought it was the last game for nearly 8 month :(
@@EjvindGEMDark I didn't realise that. Pretty sad... these new stadiums are full of promise but I'm yet to see many that deliver (for the fans, anyway). I'll miss it as an away fan, even though we very rarely won there. Love the fans on the video as well - that's what football's all about - real people :)
I live just outside of Brentford but I feel more at home there than I do my own town. I can sit on a corner with my mates in the summer with a bottle of cider and just feel safe and relaxed, I'll bump into other fans walking around even when it's not match day. I'm glad the new stadium is just around the corner. The soul of the club will remain even once the stadium is gone. It's a chilled out place with such a good buzz on match day.
Im so glad I had the chance to visit a game om Griffin Park when I was in London a couple years ago. So much football history is getting destroyed there. Griffin park, White Hart Lane, Upton Park.. Griffin park was a classic English stadium, I absolutely loved it. The atmosphere, the fans, the ground with the stands so close to the pitch. Amazing!
Bournemouth fan used to love our frequent visits to GP me and my mates used to do the gallon challenge, 2 pints in each pub before the game and then into a good old fashioned proper ground and after 5 years in the Prem still would prefer to go to GP than most of those soulless Prem stadiums
I think that will be intresting to talk anbout Beerschot. Relegated to the 5th division and in 7 years back in the 1st ! And many other things ! (Beerschot VAV, Germinal Beerschot, Beerschot AC, Beerschot Wilrijk and Beerschot VA) The club has an amazing fan base and an wonderfull team ! I miss the fans in stadiums...

Quality vid. Remember when Cambridge United got promoted free bar at the ground after match at Wembley in 2014 singing and drinking with all the players and staff
Early 1950's...watching Tommy Lawton on my dad's shoulders in the gutter at the Brook Road end. Late 50's...selling programmes in the rain to the away fans on the Ealing Road terrace. 1960's...working in Essex and having to make do with Southend on a damp evening at Roots Hall. Happy memories. My uncle was on the players' gate at Griffin Park back then and got me the job selling programmes.
was a guest down Griffin park a couple of times when I moved to Park Royal for a bit in the late 90's. nice little old school club. lively atmosphere and surprisingly they turned out quite a few game lads that used to knock about with qpr's mob as well if I remember correctly with a shared passion of slapping Luton about haha
This was the first club i supported as a youngster. My first match was 59-60 season against Bradford City. cannot remember the score, but i think we won, it was an evening game. Then i became a member of the supporters club. They gave you a lapel badge. Sadly i don't have that now.
We, Grimsby, have mooted a new ground for the best part of 30 years but there's now a bit of light that it could actually happen. When the day eventually comes I know I'll be devastated to leave Blundell Park, as you guys are to leave Griffin Park. But that day needs to come. We've not played each other for a number of years and I feel sad I never got to Griffin Park. Always seen you guys as a kindred club, similar heydays (30s/40s) both got proper old skool grounds, similar-sized fan bases. I hope we can replicate/emulate what you've done, however unlikely that feels right now. UTM PUB
Hope they manage to make the ground feel like home. My side Barnet moved to a new stadium, half the fans no longer go and we are bottom of the conference... New grounds are crap!
That's another one we've lost. It's inevitable - you can't halt the tide of progress. Glad I made the midweek trip to GP a couple of seasons ago to watch my team. I mourn the passing of every old ground. Hope things work out at the new place.
They don’t deserve to be in the premier league you have to earn promotion plus Brentford are a nothing club we don’t need small clubs in the premier league

Joined the supporters club 1964/1965 all over England in the coach what great times we had. Only player I can remember by name was Mark Lazarus he played for QPR as well which was a local derby then. Loftus road ... what a dump compared to Griffin Park.
Nice to see a Brentford story on you tube. I've been a fan since the early 70's...went first with my grandad and then went soooo many times after. Drank in the new inn as i got older, loved GP. Sad to go but we needed to modernise. Haven't been in a while owing to living in Penzance !! However when all this crap is over will go to the new ground.Can it be the same ? No , but it will be mecca to the new generations I hope. Heads up to ALL my fellow Brentford fans , odd, aren't we ??
As a Swansea fan I can say, Brentford r class. Last season, a match day in the championship against Brentford was like playing Man City in the prem. I would go “omfg pls let’s not get torn to shreds by Benrahma and Watkins.” U guys deserve to be in top flight, it will come surely
Guys I'm gonna have to fly to London, England when the pandemic is over and watch a Brentford game at Griffin Park in person. This is my dream!! This is soccer in it's true salt of the earth form. No nonsense, no glitz and glamour, just pies and the smell of football :)

I'm still gonna visit and get a picture outside of Griffin Park!! I wish they would play 1 final game there to allow the fans to say one last goodbye :(
Could they maybe play one final game at Griffin Park in the Premier League, just to say farewell one final time fittingly for the first time in the top flight???
Starting off the video with the local pubs how you know it's going to be good. Also, anyone got a song id for the track that plays in roughly the 13-15 minute in the background? Catchy
Would've liked to have got down to Griffin Park, but the away end is so small I could never get a ticket. As a Leeds fan, the only people squeezing into an end like that are the ones that go to every game. Maybe we'll meet again and I can try my luck with the new place
If you can find it read "Griffin park brentford" from "the soccer syndrome"by John Moynihan,fantastic book of essays on English football published in 1965.

Sounds great and friendly fans - will have to go to the pubs - hope they don't go when the ground is inevitably demolished for flats.

Massive respect from an Arsenal fan
Would love to go to a Brentford game
I bought tickets up to Brentford v. Charlton but Covid ruined that for me. Will forever be bummed I didn’t get see a game at Griffin Park.
