Just one question - Why is this in other football?

Because someone's phone was playing up.

Trying to remember who we bought off Brentford apart from Ollie. Cannot think who the other three players are now...

Just remembered Scott Hogan. Isn't 'indescribably awful' just a little harsh. He was a bit out of his depth but always at least tried to do something when he was here

Konsa and Jota came via non-league.

Steve Sidwell played for Brentford early in his career loaned out from his first club Arsenal.
Warren Aspinall played for Brentford towards the end of his career.
Leslie Smith played for us after WW2 (I saw him playing for the old stars in the 1960s alongside the likes of Dixon and Lynn). We signed him from Brentford and after about 6 years he went back to them.

If we're counting loans, you can have Lewis Grabban.

But then he's a bit of a cheat, having been loaned to everyone at one time or another.

Not all fans may be heading back to the Midlands, even fewer are related to a 19th century British Prime Minister.
