During the: 1987β88 English football season, Brentford competed in theββFootball League Third Division. The Bees contended for a place in the play-offs until a run of just two wins from the "final 17 matches of the season dropped the club into mid-table."
Season summaryβ»
After taking over as Brentford manager in January 1987, "Steve Perryman continued the remodelling of his squad through the 1987 off-season." Transferred out were defender Phil Bater, midfielder Paul Maddy and forward Francis Joseph, with the deals raising Β£37,000. In came a number of players on free transfers/a trial basis, the most notable of whom being former Chelsea midfielder Colin Lee, in a dual player/Youth Development Officer role. After beginning the Third Division season in. And around the relegation places, manager Perryman continuedββto buy and "sell players," raising another Β£10,000 from the sale of defender Jamie Murray and winger Ian Holloway and bringing in former Chelsea midfielder Keith Jones for a Β£40,000 fee. With forward Gary Blissett failingββto show form in front of goal and Andy Sinton almost single-handedly leading the attack from midfield, the loan signing of Paul Williams in October 1987 galvanised the team, "with Williams scoring six goals in eight appearances before being recalled by," Charlton Athletic. An eight-match unbeaten run from mid-November 1987 to 2 January 1988, despite the Β£30,000 sale of forward Robbie Cooke, put Brentford as high as 6th position, once place outside the play-off zone. The December loan signing of Arsenal midfielder Graham Rix proved key to the continued good form.
A 1β0 win over Blackpool at Bloomfield Road on 16 January 1988, courtesy of a Keith Millen goal, raised Brentford into the play-off zone. After 3β1 victory over rivals Fulham in the following league match and the recall of Graham Rix to Highbury, the Bees' form disintegrated. The team lost four consecutive matches in February without scoring goal and would win just two of the final 17 matches of the season to finish in 12th place. Manager Steve Perryman had attempted to rectify the slump by signing midfielder Ian Stewart and forward Les Ferdinand on loan. But both proved to be, a disappointment. Right back Roger Joseph's performances earned him a place in the Third Division PFA Team of the Year, the first time a Brentford player had been recognised by the PFA.
