New physio Dave Appanah has been putting Brentford's stars through their paces this week.

Although the Bees don't officially begin pre-season training until Monday, the squad have been in for a few sessions to assess their fitness.

And it was former Leyton Orient physio Appanah, who has just been brought in by Bees boss Andy Scott, who was checking that they haven't been enjoying too many burgers and beers.

Scott said: "The lads have been in for a few evaluation sessions and are looking pretty lean and sharp.

"The first few proper session from Monday will involve Dave working on their core fitness and testing it further.

"We did similar tests at the end of last season, so we will be able to do a comparison."
