Manager Mark Warburton signs new Brentford deal

Brentford manager Mark Warburton has put pen to paper on a new rolling one-year contract with the Championship club.

Warburton, 51, succeeded Uwe Rosler at Griffin Park midway through last season and led the club to automatic promotion from League One.

Assistant manager David Weir and sporting director Frank McParland have signed similar deals in West London.

"The club kindly came to us and offered us contracts. They were signed very easily and quickly," Warburton told BBC London 94.9.

"We are committed to the club and excited by the project at Brentford."

The Bees begin life in the Championship with a visit from fellow Londoners Charlton Athletic on Saturday, August 9.
