After the 1-1 draw with Leyton Orient yesterday Brentford manager Leroy Rosenior described himself as 'relieved' with a point coming away from Brisbane Road.


Once more the red and whites found themselves behind but thanks to a goal from Sam Tillen Brentford headed back to West London with a rather fortunate point,

"I was delighted at the end because it was a funny game in which we did not play well."

The point also extended Brentford's unbeaten run from the start of the season and kept the club in fourth heading into the re-match from last year's play off semi final with Swansea. The manager added,

"To be fair, Orient held the ball up well while we did not hold the ball up at all and put ourselves under pressure. They got into some good positions around our box, culminating in their goal, which was a good goal to be fair."

"But our lads are a fit bunch and they showed some resilience to come back and get a result. I cannot fault their attitude. If you come away from home don't play well and earn a draw you have to be pleased."
