Brentford 0-3 HerefordArticle Date: 26 Apr 2008 Full text commentary throughout the 90minutes here at a sunny Griffin Park... 91 - GOAL! Johnson fires The Bulls 3-0 to the good! 3 MINUTES ADDED TIME 88 - SUBSTITUTION Theo Robinson is replaced by Simon Johnson for United, again he is given a great reception from The Bulls supporters. 88 - Just a few minutes away from full time here at Griffin Park, The Bulls are seeing this game out, and although Brentford have had large amounts of possession United's victory has never really looked inany doubt. 86 - Wayne Brown tips a fine shot from Brentford's Wayne Brown over the bar. 84 - Barnet have taken the lead for a second time this afternoon, if they can hold on United will be promoted! 81 - A low cross from the left into the Bulls penalty area causes confusion, but Brown manages to gather the ball at the second attempt 79 - SUBSTITUTION: Guinan replaces Gary Hooper for Hereford. Hooper receives a standing ovation from the travelling support. 78 - SUBSTITUTION: Craig Pead makes way for Matthew Heywood. 77 - Glenn Poole sends a volley, from the edge of the area high and wide. 75 - A free kick into the box is wasted for the hosts as Osbourne heads well wide. 74 - United almost lose possesion at the back, but instead they break up field, before a fine passing move breaks down. 72 - Shakes fires a right footed shot just wide of United's goal from the edge of the area. 70 - It's mostly Brentford at the moment, but Robinson has just broke away down the left and fired a shot inches past the left hand upright. Today's attendance is 6,246 with 1,418 supporters from Hereford 65 - Connell fires an over head kick narrowly over Browns' cross bar from the edge of the area. 59 - Shakes sends a tame effort in towards Brown, but the United 'keeper claims with ease. 58 - A great free kick from Easton finds Hooper at the back post who heads the ball back across the face of the goal, unfortunately it doesn't quite reach Robinson and Hamer collects in the Brentford goal. 57 - Toumani gets a great challenge in and the ball breaks to Robinson who picks out Hooper superbly. Hooper takes a touch to control before trying to sidefoot the ball into the bottom right hand corner of the net, however it's just off target and roles wide. 55 - SUBSTITUTION: Gary Smith is replaced by John Mousinho in Brentford's first change of the game. 55 - Gary Smith sends a low free kick into the area, but United clear their lines. 54 - Stockport have equalised at Barnet. 52 - United have a corner, taken by Igoe, but it's headed clear at the near post. 47 - News coming through here that Barnet have taken the lead against Stockport - if the scores stay the same Hereford United will be a League 1 side come 5:00pm. 47 - Easton plays Hooper in down the left hand side of the 18 yard box, Hooper pulls the ball across the face of goal, forcing Hamer to save low to his left. 4:04pm: We're underway here in the second half. HALF TIME Brentford 0-2 Hereford 2 MINUTES ADDED TIME 41 - Brentford have their first corner of the game, it's swung into the area and finds it's way to former Bull, Alan Connell at the back post, but he heads wide from 6 yards. 39 - Ryan Dickson's back post cross looks for one moment as it might trouble Brown, but it sails wide and out for a goal kick. COME ON BARNET! - That's the cries coming from the Bulls fans away to my left, who, it has to be said are creating a great atmosphere here at Griffin Park. 35 - GOAL! Robinson makes up for his miss moments earlier, rounding the 'keeper before firing into the back of the net! That's how to make up for a penalty miss! 34 - IT'S SAVED- 'keeper Hamer saves Robinsons spot kick. 34 - Theo fires the ball into the back of the net, but the referee wants it to be taken again. A player must have entered the box. 33 - Another Bulls attacking move ends in a Bulls corner over on the far side. The ball enters the box, and Beckwith is felled in the area giving the referee no choice but to point to the spot. 31 - Gary Smith pounces on a misplaced pass from Diagouraga, but fires his left footed shot just over the bar. 29 - A fine spell of passing football, in which every pass is cheered by United fans, comes to an end with Robinson unable to get to an Easton through ball. 28 - Glenn Poole sends a left footed strike a yard or two wide of Wayne Brown's left hand upright. 26 - Diagouraga releases Robinson on the right flank, but Robinson's attempted cross/shot gets blocked on the edge of the area. 25 - Easton almost doubles The Bulls' advantage, but sees his left footed shot tipped around the post. 24 - Igoe wins the Bulls their third corner of the game, Easton sends it in left footed, it's headed clear with Beckwith waiting to head home. 22 - Brentford win a free kick on the edge of the 18 yard box - it's struck low and into the wall, and The Bulls clear. 18 - GOAL! It's Hooper who breaks the deadlock, latching on to a Robinson flick on to fire home from just inside the area. 16 - Igoe sends a right footed corner into the box, but Hamer collects in goal for the hosts and sends Brentford away on the counter. 12 - Hooper flicks the ball on to Robinson, but the onloan frontman gets upended and the referee pulls play back for a free kick on the half way line. 9 - Hooper wins The Bulls the first corner of the game. Easton swings it in but it's flicked clear by the Brentford defence. 5 - Igoe sends a free kick in towards the back post, but the home 'keeper manages to claim it. 3 - Another attack for the home side, but Alan Bennett volleys high and wide from an acute angle. 1 - Brentfords Wayne Brown sends in the first cross of the game, but it's overhit and goes behind for a goal kick. 3:00pm: We're underway, with United shooting away from the travelling support in the opening 45minutes. 2:57pm: The two teams make their way out onto the pitch, greeted by over a thousand, very vocal Bulls supporters, all of whom will be hoping for not only a Bulls victory, but also a defeat for Stockport. 2:45pm: Just 15minutes to go until kick off here at Brentford's Griffin Park. It's a nice sunny day here, and the away end to my left is filling up nicely with over 1,000 Bulls supporters. The players will be heading back to the changing room in just a moment.
