I was told last week that charlie would sign a contract.. mate at work knows him as charlies is trying to date his daughter.....
To be honest 2 years is not as long as i would have hoped for but I didn't think he'd more than 1 season.
Still best news we've had in a while!!!![]()
It has to be a good deal for all parties...i really hope he fulfills the potential he has already shown and progresses like Tabby did
Its Jo make or break day today, TB said decision needed by the end of the month![]()
Now he's probably going to be around for a couple of years, can we think of a better song than that awful dreary Charlie, Charlie Ide song we sing at the moment?
'Ows about:
To the tune of Rawhide
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie,
We've got a little Charlie,
Charl-ley, the Squirrel Ide,
His Straight down the middle,
He knows how to dribble,
and he wears his Brentford Badge with pride.
Its a bit of a rip off, of our Rowlands song.
Agree, though if by chance we kept Kuffour that could only work if we played 4-3-3 as they would be too small to play up front together. We need someone who can win headers and hold on to the ball to create space for Charlie

Wouldn't chants of "we've got a little Charlie" be likely to get the drugs squad infiltrating the terraces? And, anyway didn't we use that for Willie Graham in the days before Viagra?
Anything's better than the dreary song we sing at the moment, rip off or not
Footballers mindsets are normally trained so they feel they don't owe anyone anything. For every Jay Tabb there are fifty Adam Griffiths in that respect.
But back to the thread, I expect a bigger striker to partner Charlie upfront next season....

whos your mate then? and his daughter?
whos your mate then? and his daughter?
Heaven forbid we should get the ball down on the ground eh?At last somebody has pointed out the obvious flaw in playing two vertically challenged forwards. ( OK ........DWARFS !!)
We are unlikely to play 4-3-3 especially away, although this could be entertaining for us fans and playing Charlie or Joe wide is frankly a waste of their talents.
This Bit of news is about the only bit of good news ive heard so far during the close season.
Charlie Ide is the Guvnor of the next league 2 champions![]()

Heard an interesting rumour about Charlie last night.
Apparently was offered a youth team place at a Premiership club and turned it down to play big boys first team footy at Brentford.
Hope its true.
Cheers Charlie, you're a star.![]()
Considering we were 10 minutes from beating them to promotion. Damn you Jamie Cureton!i assume this offer would be from steve coppell
who certainly knows a good player
can you believe that reading and brentford are now at opposite ends of the football league? we're about as much threat to them now as wokingham town.
considering what a wonderful club brentford has been,
considering how much better brentford has been than reading,
it makes me want to weep

How about Squirrel Song by Shellac? That ought to get everyone worked upCharlie Ide should come onto the pitch to the tune..."Charlie" by the Prodigy
I just thought of that...![]()
