Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox football club season During the 1927–28 English football season, Brentford competed in the Football League Third Division South.

Season summary
Despite a sizeable amount of money in the bank after the previous season's cup exploits and big money sales of Jack Allen, Archie Clark and George Anderson, Brentford manager Harry Curtis elected to add to, rather than rebuild, his squad for the 1927–28 season.Шаблон:Sfn He invested in Scottish youngsters John Cairns, Jimmy Drinnan, William Hodge, Alexander Stevenson, Samuel Ward and English teenager Joe Wiggins.Шаблон:Sfn
Three defeats in the opening 10 matches of the season put the Bees as high as second place,[1] with off-season signing Jack Phillips scoring 9 goals, Herbert Lawson five and Ernie Watkins four.[2] By mid-October 1927, the goals had dried up and the club dropped to mid-table.[1] During this period, Brentford suffered a club record 7–1 FA Cup defeat to Manchester United.[3][4] A 3–2 victory over Walsall at Griffin Park on 5 December (one of just two wins in the midst of the bad run) was witnessed by 2,024, the club record lowest for a home Football League match.Шаблон:Sfn The Bees' form picked up again late January 1928 and the team secured a 12th-place finish.[1] Jack Phillips finished the season as he began it, with 9 goals in 10 matches, to finish as top-scorer with 18 goals.[2] Brentford's 76 goals was the highest since joining the Football League in 1920 and the club finished the season £171 in profit (equivalent to £Шаблон:Inflation in 2024).Шаблон:Sfn[5]
