What do you reckon? Will he become a legend along with the likes of Parkin, Rodgers etc etc...

Not for me, still wouldn't have been here for long enough.

the worrying thing is... 3 years seems to be a long time in football now! We'll be lucky to see him here for that long!! but if he was here for 5/6 then yeah deffo a MEGA legend!

we need a massive post christmas turnaround and playoff final victory in may for him to consider staying i fear!

If legend status was now based on the duration of a Town career then David Duke and Mark Robinson would have statues outside the ground.

irrelivant.he's a going

i used to love dukes shitness! good times

If he stays then he will be a legend in my eyes. If he goes he will be a cunt. If it was not for stfc then he may of well been out in the winter cold laying bricks and shovelling cement. Show some loyalty please Charlie.

Depends how a deal is done. I presume the club would have to receive and accept an offer before Austin can negotiate and if he's offered twice as much money as he is here it's a no brainer really and you can't blame him.

I think he's already at Parkin status. Rogers, doubt it unless he spends another couple of years and more importantly the team WIN something while he's here.

It's interesting that you have him alongside Parkin. I'm not sure he's there yet - not far off though.

Nice sentiment nochee, and one I whole heartedly agree with, but..........................

As arriba says...pay him top whack...he will stay another two years.

Do you really think so leefer? It would be nice if this happened

He's on a contract. Don't accept bids, don't accept a transfer request. Not until the last year of his contract. Even if he's not happy he'll probably still score goals.

Failing that - get a swap deal for Tevez.

Yes i do.....he is only 21 and two more years would see him till 23.......we are paying the likes of Douglas and Pericard good..good money,pay him the same or make him top earner....another two years could be a possibility......as Alan Mayes says a lot will depend on what the board feels.
This is why the cup exit was a massive blow......a good cup run may have convinced the board financially not to sell.

if celtic or a championship club come knocking when you are at a struggling league 1 team you go.
we wont compete with the wages offered, and i suspect fitton will snap their hands off anyway....

I have a feeling Charlie would be happy going to Celtic...he just loves scoring and he would get bucket loads there.

On the face of it, Celtic would be a tremendous move for Austin (It would European football for a start!)... However, the majority of better players in the SPL can only earn moves to the Championship these days - so, if a Premier League move is his ultimate goal then perhaps a Championship move would be most beneficial?

With us hopefully :nod:

Celtic would be a good move. If he played against Aberdeen he'd score a shitload against Ifill. If Sam parkin can still score goals in that league then I'm sure Austin would score shitloads. don't forget Leich and Invincibile also made a living out of the SPL and Charlie is completely different gravy to the three I've mentioned.

Austin will be playing Championship football next year I think, and the only way we can get him to consider staying for another season is to go up.

and that wont happen this season....

Stop the fucking presses. Until just now, I was convinced - CONVINCED - we were getting promoted.

However, my most sincere thanks must go to this Liden Chap. You've saved me a great deal of heartache there.

Honestly. Thank you.

No Problem! 

Is the poll meant to be half a year (until end of season), if so then he won't have done as much for us as Parkin.

If it is meant to be 1 to 2 years then he'll be in the Fjortoft, Parkin and Cox category.

If he stays for another season and bags 20+ goals this season and next, then yes.

But he won't be here.

In my opinion he has done as much as Cox already hasn't he?

I'd say so. Parkin and Jan is the next stage of legendary status.

It's atleast 1 more season (to january 2012ish) and i'd say he's past cox

It's a Draw!

Um, not quite.  He'd probably be playing for Bournemouth as the only reason we got him was that they were under a transfer embargo.

As Bormuff is the next fixture, I'm sure fate will decree something strange will happen.

No idea what mind...

So, if they couldn't sign him he wouldn't be playing or getting paid. Therefor he had to lay bricks to buy beer

Charlie scoring more than one in a game would be nice! It's incredible that he scores so many without bagging braces or hat-tricks.

Cant even take a shit these days without finding a Charlie Austin transfer rumour scribbled on the cubicle wall in marker pen!!

Yeah because the quotes from Charlie they use there really give the impression that he 'has eyes on exit' and 'has revealed he could leave Swindon Town next week'.

Wish the shit-stirring media would fuck the fuck off.

Charlie Austin has revealed that he could emigrate to play in Italy's Serie B next week

The League One striking sensation said "Talks are still going on between me and my agent and the club.

"I've 18 months left on my contract so we can only wait and see."

Charlie Austin has revealed that he might quit football next week

The League One striking sensation said "Talks are still going on between me and my agent and the club.

"I've 18 months left on my contract so we can only wait and see."

Charlie Austin is desperate to move to Hull after their initial bid was turned down

The League One striking sensation said "Talks are still going on between me and my agent and the club.

"I've 18 months left on my contract so we can only wait and see."

The headlines that get run nowadays are a complete fiction. Often they are the complete opposite of what the player/manager has actually said. The Adver is as bad as any.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

 :clap:

I believe if he stays for another year or two & we have him signing an extended contract then he will be worth much more than now. I'm sure the board realise this too. they ain't stupid & will be looking long term at this

Charlie Austin has sensationally revealed that he may leave Swindon Town in 19 months

The prolific League One forward said "Talks are still going on between me and my agent and the club.

"I've 18 months left on my contract so we can only wait and see."

Difference is now is that it looks like Charlie wants away,we may have had a chance if he was keen to stay...alas that dosn't seem to be the case now.
