Brentford prepare for their game with Notts County today having been the beneficiaries of some stunning news courtesy of Wolves. Kenny Jackett, the man in Molineux hot seat, has been named Football League manger of the month for March.
You may have seen the column only yesterday on the ‘omens’ and then this story came along to blow it out of the water.

Could play-off contenders Peterborough help provide a further demonstration of this today?

We’ll struggle to get another point.”
