  • I'd just like to see the Judas go anywhere so we can stop talking about him on this thread! Boring as fuck and who cares... He fucking didn't! 
    You do, hence you being here on the thread ;)

    Well... what else you gonna do on a hot day... But 184 pages... Gee! 
  • If he'd have played after lockdown and scored 5 goals he could prob have demanded high end champ striker fees.
    Shot himself in the foot
    Agreed. The only reasonable logic behind him not playing was that he already had something agreed, and hence didn't need to put himself in the shop window

    Yeah, thought he had something lined up which would somewhat explain why he didn't play. Maybe it has fallen through since, which would be awful 
  • How’s the new club search going Lyle?

  • Nottingham press are saying that Forest and Derby are battling it out for Ivan Toney for £5 million, maybe Taylor has to wait in turn for the attractive options to be signed first.
  • With all that's been going on I'd forgotten about that snake.

    Mark my words, Taylor will be part of the ESIv3 consortium. 

    Farnell will rope him in with Danny Murphy, Kevin Muscat and Kelvin McKenzie.
    You might be on to something, he has a family connection with club - his daughter Leon played for us.
  • Great signing for brentford tbf. With him and midfield fit we were top 6 despite patchy defence

    In the video with the Peterborough chairman he was talking about Toney going for £10m+, shows how prices have been hit by this virus situation.

    He also wanted Toney loaned back to Peterborough for the remainder of the season if he'd gone in January, so in fairness I think he was trying to make a valuation that would put almost anyone off

    If he didn’t find a club and Bowyer wanted him back, would you take him?

    Would score 20 plus in League 1 to get us back to the Championship.

    (......runs for cover).
    As good a player as he his, he is too far up his own arse and has treated the club like dirt. 
    The club/Dushitelet let him down on a transfer.  He's bitter because of this.
    So because of his hurt feelings he refused to play thus risking us to relegation and thereby screwing over his teammates, Bow and his staff, the club employees and the supporters. What a guy.
    Yes, he probably did.
    Why should he care about upsetting fans and ex team mates?  It is only a job.

    If it’s only a job, then you wouldn’t go around upsetting clients and colleagues, because eventually your reputation would stop you getting any decent new job. 
    Fair comment, but I think COVID has come at a bad time for Taylor.

    If only there was a vaccine...

    ...for people like Taylor?
  • No one forced him to walk out on us when we needed him most, that was his choice and if it's left him struggling to find a club during the pandemic then that's his hard luck.

    He mentioned in an interview once that part of the reason he wanted to play under Bowyer was because Bowyer wanted to speak to him in person rather than take testimony from other managers that he'd fallen out with. Let's hope for his sake that manager's at potential clubs don't speak to Bowyer first.

    Only if he professed his regret and apologised all over his social media outlets.
    Any apology would be hollow words. Actions speak louder and he has spoken. Never should we even think about having him back.    
  • Hope you lot don't get too upset when he secures a decent move.
    You know that there are no morals in football and players that score/create goals will always demand a premium. You can forget all the rubbish about his attitude and his decision not to play for us after the restart. Unprecedented circumstances!
    His attitude, when he is on the pitch, is second to none.
    He'll get a good move, as his talent deserves.
    Just accept it and move on. 

    He is a complete wanker but a good player, he will get his move.

    I think I'll always feel conflicted about this.

    On the pitch, Taylor was brilliant to watch and his attitude was second to none. He has also done more charity/community work than most Charlton players in recent times (even if it was in a LOOK AT ME kind of way).

    I can't forget the good he brought to the club. 

    But I will never forget the way he left us 

    He likes PR and publicity so I'll take a lot of what he does with a pinch of salt. There are plenty of people doing good stuff out there who don't advertise it.

    Obviously they’re all bigger clubs than us, but I wonder if the big move he spoke of was always a choice of Forest, Burnley, Galatasary, Celtic and Rangers. 

    I’d thought that Forest had been play off contenders for many years in a row, surprised to see last 5 have actually been 7th, 9th, 17th, 21st and 16th.
