Stewards criticised over incident with Leyton Orient fans during Carabao Cup tie at Brentford

There was trouble in the stands as with stewards criticised over an incident with Leyton Orient fans during the Carabao Cup tie at Brentford.

Chaos erupted with Brentford going on to win the Third Round fixture 3-1 on Tuesday night (18th September) through goals from Fabio Carvalho, Mikkel Damsgaard and Christian Norgaard after League One Leyton Orient, took a shock lead through Brandon Cooper.

@kyle_sk1 tweeted along with a video: “Full grown men man handling and throwing punches at 16yr olds at a “family friendly club” atrocious #orient”

@QuoteOrient did the same, writing: “This smug obese mess of a Brentford steward thought he was James Bond covering up his mouth so all the lip readers couldn’t disrupt his military precision £12 an hour operation. #lofc”

Brentford boss Thomas Frank, per Sky Sports: “It depends on the strength of other clubs. It’s been 11 years in a row of one of the top six winning it, so it’s difficult. But I think we’ve got enough depth in the squad.

“We just need to be less unlucky with injuries. Right now we have eight of our first-team players [out], normally you’d have two, three or maybe four. If it was only four then no problem. If we have them available, I think we have a strong squad.

“The aim is to go as far as possible and in the best case to win it. We played with great tempo and intensity. Big respect to [Orient], they started the game well, we couldn’t get on top of the game at 1-0.”

Leyton Orient boss Richie Wellens: “First half we were very good, took the lead, but gave a couple of very poor goals away.

“The difference is when [Brentford] get to the final third their runs are explosive. With us, it was pass, pass and we slowed it down too much.”

This is what Twitter users had to say with stewards criticised over incident with Leyton Orient fans during the Carabao Cup tie at Brentford…

@Pandamonium1881: The only real PHYSICAL aggression in that video is coming from the stewards. Created a problem before the game and at HT that didn’t exist. Allegedly the same stewarding company used at AFC Wimbledon – would explain a lot.

@Barnesy_1985: Have to argue with a few of the comments below, have witnessed Brentford stewards try to provoke aggro and then get fully stuck in themselves. Last yr w/the Arsenal, there were 5 stewards battering 1 bloke for no reason, then numerous Gooners tried to help him out then it call KO.

@ThePunjabiOs: Stewarding was a joke yesterday! Over zealous plastic authority figures! Never seen anything like it!

@ellufc: Brentford stewards being Brentford stewards never forget when we were there the season we stayed up and the steward in front of me put his hands on my boobs and the claimed he was pushing me back so I didn’t get crushed at the front

@_kieranbl: Wimbledon’s old stewards have relocated to Brentford then

@Jameschris179: The most disgusting disgraceful stewarding I’ve ever seen on my years of going to football every single steward anyway and last night needs to be sacked and given a failed DBS so they can’t do it again, they attacked the children last night I saw this with me own eyes

@Jameschris179: Hi Mark how can one make an official complaint about the disgraceful student at Brentford last night in the away end. Stewards attacking and beating up children. If enough Orient fans contribute can the club raise an official complaint

@Jameschris179: Hi Mark can you confirm whether the club on behalf of fans will be raising an official complaint to the FA/Premier League/police whichever is relevant here about the behaviour of last night’s Brentford thug stewards including beaten up and breaking the ribs of children

@Kaihatton1999: Had my whole wallet search tonight stewards demanded I take out and show him all my cards remove any notes coins receipts on the remote chance I got coke on me what the f*** is that about Brentford bit of an invasion I think

@streetmatron: I am ashamed to be a Leyton Orient fan tonight after seeing the muggy little pricks fighting stewards and police in the stands at Brentford tonight left of 25 minutes to go as my anxiety went through the roof

@_jackburrows_: Utterly wrong, Orient fans for denied entry to the stands after previously being able to access seats due to steward saying that is allocated seating which you clearly wasn’t caused a dangerous bottle neck for fans to be overcrowded and rightly so fans ‘fight’ back against
