So basically you're saying the footballing equivalent to 'if my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle'
It's a game of football, either team can score and at any point. Because we won convincingly, were in control and never looked like losing isn't a reason to say that we were hanging on because...
The one where Stockdale collided with Dunk whilst trying to catch the ball and their guy kicked it into Wilson (who had completely blocked any view of the target meaning the striker had nothing to aim at) - nothing mysterious about the corner being given. It was about the only think of note...
Such as when...? (please describe examples of what happened to make you think that way)
I can't think of a single example when they threatened in this period
It's funny, but listening to the post match interview by the Brentford manager, even he disagrees with you - I guess he was watching with blue and white glasses on too
I guess BG thinks that conceding lots of possession to the opposition, even if that is only allowing them the ball in non threatening areas of the pitch and still stopping them from getting any shots on target away is hanging on
We've seen over the years that possession means very little. The...

Press reports include:

(from Sky sports) secured a comfortable 3-0 victory at home to Brentford on Friday night.
The match stats...
And equally we could easily have been 6 or 7 goals to the good by that point too with the 2nd half tactics we employed - I suppose it depends if you are always negative and fearing the worst when it comes to the team or whether you trust a vastly experienced manager who has a track record of...
I was at the Brighton vs Brentford game last night. I don't have a clue which match you went to see from that description, it can't have been the same one as me
Just after he was clattered when in the box and the defender slid in to deny him a goal?
It was a well timed sliding block / tackle by the defender (and never a chance of it being a penalty) but Wilson then collided with that defender and looked in difficulty after that for a while
We were playing a team that likes an open game so that they can attack with pace and in numbers, we denied them that space and the ability to use their pace in the second half and looked to break quickly by releasing Wilson, Knockaert or Murphy with the long ball for them to run onto. - Did...
