Brentford manager signs new contract

By

Brentford manager Mark Warburton has signed a new one-year rolling contract, as have Frank McParland and David Weir.

Warburton has been at Griffin Park since 2011 and was the club’s sporting director before replacing Uwe Rosler after the German left to take over as Wigan boss in December last year.

McParland, who previously worked at Liverpool, subsequently replaced Warburton as sporting director, while former Scotland defender Weir was brought in as assistant manager.

With Warburton at the helm, the Bees stormed to automatic promotion and are preparing for life in the Championship.

Chairman Cliff Crown said: “When they joined forces around six months ago the club was making great progress.

“Together they have built on those foundations and are looking to crystalise our place in a higher division.”
