Lambert will get him playing. Scottish and a Celtic legend. Slade got him playing because he's a proper manager.
Is anyone surprised that a bunch of network donkeys weren't held in high esteem by Tony?
Did Slade get him playing, I don't recall him setting the world alight whilst at Cardiff, do you know the stats?
Agreed. We also have to consider the length of time. Luzon "got him playing" last season for a few months when he first arrived at the Valley. I think it has little or nothing to do with the manager/head coach and a lot to do with the player's attitude. He seems to start off well and fade away. If what was mentioned earlier in this thread was true re Watt feigning injury on his return from his loan spell with Cardiff, then I'm amazed people still want him here. That is the definition of stealing a living. Trying to get out of playing a match for the club that is paying your wages. Good riddance! Riga wants to focus on players who want to be at Charlton and that is what we need if we are to get out of trouble.
Hawksby & Jacobs (Talksport) were interviewing a guy on their show yesterday afternoon discussing the betting culture within clubs nowadays, especially the younger players. He mentioned he knew of at least one Championship footballer who has had to be moved on because he was cheating at cards on the team bus. Sums of money as high as £5k were mentioned?
Could this be our Tony?
Heard this yesterday on the show and thought the same thing.
Tony Watt has revealed he had no intention of staying at Charlton - even after his move to Cardiff collapsed.
The 22-year-old was loaned to Blackburn until the end of the season and netted on his debut, a 3-0 victory at Oxford in the FA Cup.
Watt featured against Rovers the weekend before when he was picked to play for Charlton after a transfer embargo scrapped plans for a permanent move to City.
“I was never staying at Charlton,” said Watt. “A lot of things happened behind the scenes that I can’t really speak about that kind of left me a bit disheartened and sad.“It’s a beautiful club but just one of those things. I’m not there anymore and don’t really want to talk about it.
“I’m happy I’ve moved on and we’ll see what happens come the summer.
“I’d love to be at Blackburn long-term, working for the gaffer.
“I had passed every stage of three days of medicals at Cardiff and was about to sign on the dotted line when I got a text they were under embargo.
“I’m a big believer that what is for you won’t go past you. Now I’m at a massive club.
“My last three games have been with different clubs, so I’m happy just to be settled.”

If he's left us then why can't he talk about what's gone on?
Sometimes it would be good to hear the story, maybe then we can hear both sides rather than all this gossip, rumour, innuendo.
He is only on loan right now, he is still an employee of the club. The truth might come out once he he sold/given away or whatever it is they decide to do with him.
At a club as sick as ours with as much chance of exiting the division as ours. Massive? never and certainly not now. As the Dingles have been posting all week on the local paper's message boards "Another Twatt in Blackburn". Lambert not setting pulses racing and Rhodes lining up against them tomorrow with a nice brace to say thanks for the memories.

Oh, sorry, wrong thread.
Still. Helmet.

see watt i did there!
A draw would probably be the best result
Though, after the night before, all that reaching way, way down can be quite exhausting.
On a bad day Tony two left feet is the Dizzard of the Wibble.
