Show Notes
On this week's episode, Mike, Craig and Dan are joined by former Bees captain and Brentford Hall of Famer, Pontus Jansson.
Pontus joined the club in the summer of 2019 and was quickly made captain by Thomas Frank in a season that saw Brentford finish 3rd in the Championship, but eventually miss out on promotion in the playoffs. Pontus, however, was a key member of the squad that, in the following year, returned Brentford to the top flight for the first time in over than 70 years.
Captaining Brentford on their maiden voyage in the Premier League, Pontus quickly became a cult hero and club legend, making over 100 appearances for the Bees, and being involved in some of our most iconic top flight games to date.
We chat about what led him to sign for Brentford, his favourite memories in the Premier League, the current squad under Keith Andrews, and how his future could lead him back to the Gtech one day.
