  • Lamouchi is toast.
    Indeed I think he might be - 4 defeats from 4 matches and yet to score a goal. First time since 1954 that they've lost their first 3 league games too.
    0 wins in 10 and only 3 wins in 19 going back to February.

    Our 1-0 win there (a few days after they'd beaten Leeds) was the start of the 19 game run. Their manager surely has to be sacked.
  • They got a shithouse
    We got one of the hardest working, honest midfielders outside the Premier League. 
    Welcome to big school Ben. 
  • Taylor won't care. He'll go to sleep tonight on a bed full of cash and his favourite photo of himself on the pillow 
    That made me smile 😃

    Be careful what you wish for!
    Life changing move!

    Idolised by our fans. Moves to a 'bigger wealthier club', well if he doesn't hit form, his dream move could be a nightmare. #notourproblem
  • I have a feeling he might end up being loaned out to a L1 club in January.

    Can’t believe you didn’t include the inevitable question at the end of your post!

    Because I know the answer.

    Yeah, it's a funny thing. Players can be meh at several clubs and then at their next club, they can really find their groove and suddenly they are the big star there. Everything works out for them.

    Trouble is, it can go to some players heads, they begin to believe they're Billy Bigbolox and agitate for the big move £££££££££
    And at their new club, perhaps in the dressing room or with their fans' high expectations, it all goes flat.

    Still, in Taylor's case while he's counting his money, he might perhaps not care so much about the football - after all, as he has often said, to him it's only a job.


  • How's old candy floss head getting on?

    Oh dear!
  • If they move on from Lamouchi early and getting somone like Howe, I can still see them having a really good season to be fair

    Yeah but he is getting his pay so will happily wave us as he goes down without a care

    Back in primary school next season when we swap places  ;)
  • How much per week is Lyle new contract with Forest?
  • Taylor was a very good player for us. We have to admit that. Had he played out last season, I think he would have left with our good will and lasting gratitude. I suppose there was a chance he could have got injured, but I think there were players like Sarr who was out of contract and even players on loan from other clubs willing to do their bit.

    The biggest problem for Taylor, may not be what we fickle fans think of him, but what fellow pros may think of him. He will have had team mates at Charlton who were negatively affected by his decision. It won't be just those that may now be suspicious of his credentials as a team player. Not a problem when things are going well on the pitch, but they might be if things are not.

    I think that is a sub plot that doesn't weaken his position. But ultimately, the end of the season was about his team mates and fans. or at least should have been.

    If he went in the stocks for a week (remember Tiswas ) and apologize for not playing the 3 games when still under contract then why wouldn't you want a guy who was brilliant for Cafc and could get us promoted.

    It won't happen because Charlton fans do hate big time and Taylor has burnt his bridges. Lyle saw through Matthew Southall for the shyster he was. I'm still amazed that some normally sharp CL posters didn't realize until the window shut that MS was a wrong'un.

    Lyle Taylor made a mistake in not playing till the end of his contract. I'm still gutted for Cafc, but also gutted for him because the goals, assists and good things he does off the pitch has been erased from memory.
