Bees can win league title - Scott

Brentford

Brentford manager Andy Scott thinks his side have a great chance of winning the League Two title following the last-gasp 1-1 draw at Accrington.

Tuesday's draw saw them climb above Wycombe Wanderers into top spot.

And Scott told BBC London 94.9: "They're in there disappointed and we're top of the league. We've got nine games left at home and seven away.

"It's going to be a big push but this was a big three weeks for us and we've come out on top of the league."

Brentford came from behind to equalise in stoppage-time at Accrington, with on-loan Ipswich striker Jordan Rhodes scoring his fifth goal in six matches.

606: DEBATE

Scott is pleased with his side's character, and is also relieved to have come through a busy period of games without any fresh injuries.

He added: "We've shown in adversity that we can come back and we've played some decent stuff and worked very hard.

"When you've got that sort of base, they want to win all the time. They're disappointed (not to have won), even though we're top of the league.

"We're looking pretty comfortable at the moment in terms of injuries which is nice as well.

"We've got through a difficult phase of the season with everybody intact, and we can recharge the batteries ready to go against Port Vale on Saturday."
