The segment included a nice mix of topics, including the NYC Brentford supporters' group, thoughts on the World Cup starting up stateside, the anticipation of Thiago and other Brentford players heading into the tournament, and much more!
Big thanks for having us on the show. There's a good chance we might join Total Sport again a few weeks into the World Cup for our perspective, so stay tuned!
The program was hosted by Delyth Lloyd and football reporter George Addo. We covered topics ranging from new manager Keith Andrews, to Thiago and the new-look Bees attack, season predictions and more.
BBC Radio's Sports World Premier League pregame coverage is specifically for the 11:30 a.m. ET (4:30 p.m. GMT) Sunday kickoff slot. If an upcoming Brentford match is moved to this kickoff time/day, there's a good chance we will make a return. That said, if any other Brentford supporters would be interested in participating, we'd be happy to connect you with their producer, who has overseen this show for the past couple seasons now.
For future reference, the Sportsworld program is available on the BBC World Service feed:

Earlier this season, we took part in a BBC Sports live panel prior to Brentford at Liverpool on Aug. 25, with a discussion led by Nashat Ladha and George Addo.
The show's producer said the segment served as a "blueprint" for what the BBC was looking for, so his rave review and positive feedback from the hosts should potentially lead to more BBC Sports opportunities for our group down the road if we have another Sunday primetime slot. Let us know if you're interested in participating!
