Excellent news I agree!

Alas i cannot see Kuffour staying. He was Leroy's signing and protege and, overall, he cannot have been that thrilled with the ways things worked out last season. Three managers and the Club's worst season in living memory etc etc He is definately a division one player, maybe Championship even, and i am sure he will want to play for the biggest club he can .... as he is on a 'free' I expect him to go to a club like QPR, Ipswich, or Norwich who will take a punt on him. Maybe even Watford. He can always slip back down the pole 'til he finds his level.

Shame we didn't sign him for two years ---- hey ho!

But back to the thread, I expect a bigger striker to partner Charlie upfront next season....

I was told last week that charlie would sign a contract.. mate at work knows him as charlies is trying to date his daughter.....

Cant you introduce her to JK , then we might get to know what his thinking is as well lol
 

Charlie Ide

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!!! :)

O/S says the new contract also includes an option. No details on length or by whom, but I'd assume at least a year by the club. So potentially a 3 year deal which will also then safeguard the transfer value if necessary.
 

Charlie Ide

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

Good to see that everyone is unanimous about Charlie, this doesn,t happen much on GPG.

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.

Probably make him flee to QPha and kiss their badge while he's there. :D
 

Charlie Ide

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


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.

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?
 

Charlie Ide

Anything's better than the dreary song we sing at the moment, rip off or not

You're dead right, however I can't think of anything apart from two old skool tunes of:

charlie ide,
charlie ide,
charlie, charlie ide,
if we sing his name he'll give us a goal
charlie, charlie ide

he's here
he's there
he's every ****in where
charlie ide, charlie ide

rubbish I know - creative gene is AWOL !
 

Charlie Ide

;)
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.

Must have gone through 50 players last season so perhaps JK will be the 1-50

The squirrel lives on:D :)
 

Charlie Ide

TB says that JK has a couple of weeks to sort his contract out so there is still hope.:sorted:
 

Charlie Ide

whos your mate then? and his daughter?

A couple of weeks back I was told that Charlie wanted to stay loyal as he was so young and didnt want to jump up the leagues as he felt he needed more experience that was despite apporaches from Wolves :eek:

Heaven forbid we should get the ball down on the ground eh? ;)
I don't see Brentford changing from 4-4-2 ever unless something drastic is done like getting a very strong central midfield player. We could always play one more advanced midfielder in a 4-3-1-2 but that leaves huge gaps down the lines and we're crap enough at defending those as it is without inviting the oppositions with extra space in defensive midfield. Who's be a football manager eh? ;)

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. :sorted:

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

I think having an exceptionally rich owner has helped a bit. I wonder how that nice Mr Benham's business is going these days?
