My littleun has had to put up with me talking bout Charlton all her young life,where we have been,the highs,lows,more lows the owners,the whole ordeal as it were,she has been right amongst it especially with the Roly saga (still continuing) after the delirium of Wembley last yr & the way we started the Championship,we were on course to be settled for a change,then the next lot of chancers decide to come in & try strip the very heart out of our club...I try to fill her in but it’s too much for her little mind,all she wants is for us to go back to the Valley & watch her heroes,one in particular...yes that one...,last yr at the Donny p/o away game,my little one got a photo with every player,but the one that’s been sitting in a frame,pride of place,was one of her,that hero along with the MoM award...now I’ve been trying to explain she will never see him in a Charlton shirt again,the same shirt she saved up for with her own money then saved more so she could have that name & number on her back,I even explained he might have only been there till January,but she insisted it didn’t matter,it was her hero,she now wants that photo thrown away along with shirt & I’m heartbroken for her...that man has disrespected our Club,Our Shirt,our fans & devastated my daughter,so Lyle u egotistical c&£t just fuck off & do one,there is not one ounce of sympathy coming from me,I hope u have a train wreck of a career from here on in...3 games,just a few more playing hrs to see out your contract & u could have always been a hero in her (our) eyes..but no,you have left my girl in tears & that is unfuckin forgivable...
But I’ve promised her we will always have a Charlton & she still says she is on board...👍
great post and my daughter is exactly the same - adores Taylor. I'm hoping Bonne can really do the business, gets given the No 9 shirt and she goes on to totally forget Lyle
He has full control of it, if a club was making him not play it would be illegal.
Fucking idiot am extremely greatful for the goals to him it’s a job to us it’s part of our lives our little old Charlton, and to Darren Gough Charlton is a proper team you northern shit
Way he's worded that makes it sound like he's got a new club and they're dictating decisions for him
If so what disappoints me is the fact that on that recent podcast he actually came out and said no one, literary no one is talking to each other in Football at the moment
By that I presumed he meant Agents and clubs etc. which is clearly bullshit
That latest twitter post has wound me up. Yet again no apology, all about him and thanks those that have supported his decision. A decision that cannot be supported given he is in breach of contract, there's no grey area it's just wrong. And playing the race card because the focus is on him and not Solly? Anyone with a shred of intelligence can see that's because Solly is simply not an important factor in our survival. Can't stand the bloke.
Little control? Surely he has full control of the games he's contracted to play ffs.
Exactly. He's been told by his new club not to play all day long. Cant have been too many messages of support from Charlton fans i wouldnt think
I'm sure the FA would have something to say about that, if true.
Exactly, as long as pre contract agreements have existed players have, to my mind at least, fulfilled their obligations to the club currently playing them or the club and player have both agreed to terminate things early.
The FA won't do anything as I doubt anything is written down but if the club signing him have pressurised him to refuse to play for the current club that breaks down another fragile remaining layer of morality in football.
That tweet or post is a load of bollocks, he has complete control. To the point he made the decision not to fulfil his contractual obligation of playing football if fit.
Aside from that, football isn't that black and white. It's an emotional game for the people that make football the cash cow it is for those that seem intent on destroying the game, it's also massively about character and mental fortitude in the same way test cricket is. I guarantee successful teams that have won stuff and compete contain changing rooms full of people willing to fight for the man next to them even if they don't like them. Taylor now falls well out of that bracket for me and I'd be very wary of him if I was about to become a teammate of his

Not if the instruction is delivered unofficially in a way that is deniable. Football is full of dishonesty. Stealing players, especially young players is done by them all. They promise money/cars for the parents etc... Football is run by immoral people, but they don't publicise this aspect.

Lyle Taylor wants the Charlton Fans to find it in their hearts not to hate him. if our next owner was to offer him 20K per week would stay then ? Now maybe not it’s all utter Shite. i am as loyal as any Charlton fan could be since 1968 as a little Boy born in Greenwich have loved this club and I still do, as did my dad and my grandmother who lived on Wolf Crescent SE7.
No I will Not hate you Lyle .... but I have no fucking respect for you, as you are not a man of character or integrity!!

I should have said if true and provable.
On your last point, I agree - oh shit, hang on ....
Bollox to him, solly and davies - i'm under no illusion that footballers do anything other than what's good for their career and paycheck and haven't since i was about 11 years old so not surprised at all. They could have made a different decision and they could have been welcomed back to the club in years to come - they haven't and they won't be so that's that. Out of all of them i think its Solly who has let himself down the most. For the extra year or so he may play at some shit level he's thrown away years and years of good will.

Johnny Williams and Sir Chris P are not to be tarnished with the above. Solly has really let himself down there

Probably got flowers from the same bloke who sent some to Katrien
Somebody sent flowers to Katrien?!
Didn't you know? @cabbles held a torch for her and he was broken hearted when she knocked him back😉.
Ah, it's coming back to me now, I seem to recall someone else sent her flowers after she got some stick on a train back from Watford after we suffered a humiliating defeat there.
Seen on lyles insta stories that he shared a video of Chris Dickson implying that the media are using race to portray the lyle story negatively, whilst ignoring that Solly isn't playing. Annoying that they are using the race card when the reason it is portrayed this was is because Lyle is/was our best player whilst Solly is now a bench warmer at best
If Taylor signs for Fulham the "There's only 2 greedy bastards" will be interesting

He may love playing, but he's said it several times he is not a football fan.
I wish he could do more for us, but he chooses not to. He had the opportunity to achieve a status of greatness.
Maybe alongside Kermorgant. Instead he's going to end as a Parker.

Almost seems to be a default position now for some to play the race card as a way of deflecting away from the central issue.
