Found this (apologies it's the Express):
https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1290519/Championship-news-EFL-new-rule-out-of-contract-players-Charlton-Lyle-TaylorThe new rules state that if players turn down new deals or are not offered them and become free agents, and then after June 30 sign for a new club, they cannot play for that new club until the 2020-21 season starts.
If that is the case then can Taylor still play? Was he offered anything?0 -
It wouldn't appear to matter whether or not he was offered a new deal. He can't play until next season.colthe3rd said:Found this (apologies it's the Express):

& that credit you say he deserves,could lead us back into league one...fulfil that Contract,yes the one he signed...try save us,then no one would give a toss...,he leaves a hero,then credit where credits due...but nope he is just another selfish arsehole...!!!MuttleyCAFC said:As far as Taylor is concerned he leaves us in credit. I understand why he has acted in the way he has. He is 30 and his career has been a lower league one. Its peak has so far been with us! He is running out of time to get a big pay day. And a club offering him that has instructed him subtly not to play (I am sure of that). If it was Boro it would make even more sense.
I do also believe Taylor will live to regret his decision. It may not be financially but his reputation will always be a little tarnished by this. His new club have hung him out to dry IMO. There will come a time when that will be important to him, even if it isn't now, as I am sure he is a very decent person.5 -
Yeah sorry misread that even after quoting it. I'll go sit in the corner.robinofottershaw said:

We can stay up without him. We forget that with a fully fit squad, we still have enough decent players.9

I read yesterday on Sky, clubs can sign players from July 22?, 2020, this season should be over by then apart from play offsForeverAddickted said:I thought the EFL had said it wouldn't be allowed @paulie8290

be funny if he has signed for Boro and we stay up and they go downMuttleyCAFC said:As far as Taylor is concerned he leaves us in credit. I understand why he has acted in the way he has.

If true its probably a good thing no fans are allowed in the stadium lol, dont think he would be welcomed by most1
-
Typical Lyle if true. Massive publicity stunt to be the centre of attention8
-
Listen, if he comes in and gets us the goals to keep us up. For me, all is forgiven.paulie8290 said:If true its probably a good thing no fans are allowed in the stadium lol, dont think he would be welcomed by most
Huge credit has to go to Bowyer here, I don't think any other manager would get Taylor to play.2 -
His house is on the market though so must have the move done and dusted1
-
Money talks and ball shit walks, Mr Matthews must have had a change of heart, must have been all the tweets someone sent him.
True or not it's ended up in the current bun for a reason, now what might that be.......2 -
Doesnt overly surprise me actually
Bowyer is one of those Managers who really does have the ability to get players playing for him2 -
It'll be remembered by us and his 'current team mates' but I doubt the supporters of his new club will give a shit or his new team mates , it'll quickly be forgotten by the neutrals and press like all the other unprofessional or racist or cheating nonsense that other players doMuttleyCAFC said:Let us imagine, as I think is probable, that Taylor has been given the message by his potential new club not to play for us. He needs to look in the mirror and ask himself if it is a good move to go to a club which is willing to drag his name through the mud where his professionalism and loyalty to his team mates is questioned and this will be remembered. It isn't as if he wont have options and he could ensure his next club is a decent one. Look at Cullen. He isn't even a Charlton player and has committed himself to us for the remainder of the season.0 -
I dm’d him on Instagram and he replied straight away. Not true.7
-
Just hope his team mates are happy with these games that he's playing!!
Dont want him suddenly becoming a disruption to the harmony within the dressing room
Wonder if we'll see the same from Solly
Although we never actually knew his reasoning so nothing may have changed for him

End of the day whatever we thought of his decision Right or wrong he is literally the life and soul of our team and what makes us click and be more successful
As someone has said it takes a big man to change his mind in this situation and do this and all credit to the man
if this is the difference between us staying up or going down which i believe it will be then all i can say is
GETTTT INNN THERE0 -
Quite a few people predicted this might happen and its easy to see why, my view is simple he his contracted so he should play that will never change.0

He must like you more than me lol, I never got a reply hahaJoshAddick said:I dm’d him on Instagram and he replied straight away. Not true.3 -
