Lyle is a bit of a naive idiot if he thinks Charlton fans will be okay with what he's done. Our main concern is the club and he's made it abundantly clear we don't matter.
Why does he expect sympathy?
Honestly I highly doubt he cares what Charlton fans think, this is just about damage control now.
Does not bode well for any sportsperson's future if they fear injury.
I guess what he means (but cannot bring himself to say) is that he fears injury could deprive him of a big money move. We know he was ready to be off to Brentford in summer, and then, having knuckled down, he got what he said was the worst injury of his career. He would have spent several weeks pondering whether he missed out completely.
Before anyone starts, I am not defending his refusal to play. But to say, as someone did above, that he is made of glass, is just re-writing history. And of course, IMO he wasnt the only one to have these thoughts because he’s not the only one with big money at risk. His agent too, missed out on a big payday in summer and will do anything to make sure he doesn’t miss out again.
Unless he does the mother of all uturns and finds his spine and bollocks the bloke is gone for me. Don't know why people are even engaging with him on social media.
Can understand his decision and the rationale but think it's extremely cowardly, spineless and hugely disrespectful to the club and fanbase.
He's acted like an utter mug here and we shouldn't waste another thought on him. He's not as good as his ego thinks and lost a huge amount of respect for him.
He can enjoy his extra few quid now and jog on as a non entity.
Focus on the players that want to be here and help our cause not victim card playing and attention seeking prima donnas.

Too late for any U turn imo. He's shown his loyalties are only to himself.

Yep. It wont happen anyway and only reason would be is if this episode meant other clubs dont sign him.
Lyle is an absolute bellend. Has to be in the spotlight and is so self considerate.. That's always been obvious. He might be older but this ain't that different to Parker is it?
He isn't part of our club anymore, he walked. As far as I'm concerned he should change his profile and info saying he's at CAFC on insta and move on.

Defoe replacement!

Reckon Palace (threw up in my mouth) could offer him half of what Galatasary are offering and he'd go there
Also I know Galatasary arent the team they were in the 90s but I dont think Lyle is THAT good!!
Edit: Maybe they still are with five league titles in the last eight years
