Glenn Stephen Poole (born 3 February 1981) is an English footballer, currently playing for Brentford in League Two.

Poole, a left winger who can also play in central midfield, started his career as a junior at Tottenham. He was not offered a professional deal at White Hart Lane and after being released he joined Yeovil. Poole failed to establish himself at Huish Park and, after a loan spell at Bath City, he dropped down to the non-league to sign for Redbridge. His impressive goalscoring record at Redbridge (averaging over one goal every three games from midfield) caught the attention of Conference South side Thurrock who he signed for in July 2004. After a season at Thurrock, he then moved to their local rivals Grays Athletic, in 2005. Poole played 75 league games for Grays, scoring 19 goals in the process.

Poole was signed by new Brentford manager Terry Butcher on May 19, 2007 on a free transfer in a two-year deal. Brentford beat off competition from several other clubs for Poole's signature.
