From the first whistle to the last, Saturday's game lasted precisely 99 minutes and 28 seconds but the ball was only in play for 50 minutes and 43 seconds. That was no accident. That was Brentford.
We shouldn't bash them for that. As Premier League newbies, sometimes they will need to eat up the seconds. Especially in the situation they found themselves in at Molineux Stadium.
Leading 2-0 and with Shandon Baptiste shown red in the 64th minute, wasting time was necessary.
