The Premier League has filed for a trademark with the United States Patents Office for a cryptocurrency. One of Brentford’s partners is a ‘cryptocurrency exchange’ called Coinjar. A recent Club communication on behalf of Coinjar raised questions marks among some Bees fans. Bees United decided to investigate.
Brentford owner Matthew Benham rarely gives interviews but to mark the tenth anniversary of the fans meeting where Bees United members voted to hand over ownership of the club he sat down and talked with Bees United Chairman Stewart Purvis.
In 2012 David Merritt was the Chairman of Bees United, who were the majority owners of Brentford, and he asked members to entrust the club to Matthew Benham. They voted 'yes' and the rest is Bees history. He looks back on a 'Milestone for Brentford'.
BU Contributing Editor Greville Waterman is writing a book about Brentford's first year in the Premier League which will be published soon. Here he reflects on 'an unforgettable season'.
