Seriously, how good were Luton tonight?! Pressing so aggressively, endless energy, first to every ball & absolutely no let-up all game. Brighton never stood a chance. I will never tire of Rob Edwards' side continuing to respond so emphatically to being written off #LTFC #LUTBHA

It’s certainly not a lap of honour, lad. It’s about mutual appreciation between the players and fans, particularly given where we’ve come from. Quite embarrassing for a 50-year-old ex-pro to admit to being angry about something he clearly knows nothing about. #BrentfordFC

Totally understand the reasoning, but still really sad to hear Sergi Canos could be on his way out. I just hope Thomas gives him one last appearance to take him to 250 and the chance to say goodbye properly. Whatever you think of him, he’ll forever be a club legend #BrentfordFC

Brentford have beaten Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd & secured a top 10 finish with one of the lowest budgets in only their second season in the Premier League, but there’s not even so much as a Manager of the Year nomination for Thomas Frank. Incredible. #BrentfordFC
