    Does not bode well for any sportsperson's future if they fear injury.

    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.

    Best place for ageing injury prone footballers 👍

    Defoe replacement!

    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.

    Can’t see this? 
  • He needs to change his profile pic on Twitter seeing as he doesn’t want to wear the shirt...

    When he says ‘we’, I wonder who he’s referring to?

    He said it on instagram. Can he be a trusted source though? 
  • Really is piss poor what he has done. Shameful.  Hero to zero.

    All of the comments on that daily mail article seem to agree with his decision.

    He’s commenting on shit like this so he can get a rise out of people and then play the ‘oh woe me’ act. 

    I really think he’s a massive plum on social media.

    Dont think he'll go abroad, he wants to play in the Premier League

    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

    Pretty sure as this will be his final big contract, he’ll go where the money is.

    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.

    Selfish cnut and a coward. You leave a club in the position its in that no other club can touch with the crap were dealing with and you just walk away! Money grabbing, no integrity, no respect and no honour... How dare you kiss our badge and say all the right things and then do this... You're no better than Southall. Forgive?? Never... Forget?? Never.

    Is it fair to say that he's off your Christmas card list?
    The first time I met Taylor I thought he was a nice bloke.
    but the first time I saw Southall and heard his first interview I thought he was a dishonest rat conman!!
    Sure you did. 


    It amazes me how many people apparently knew Southall was dishonest from the start lol.

    I mean even this 1968cafc says he knew he was a dishonest rat conman from his first interview, yet 1st February he said he was doing a good job




    Can we not just be honest and admit we fell for the bullshit MS fed us
    "then after that we move forwards afterwards". ???

    With a bit of luck he’ll piss off to Turkey, don’t wanna watch him still playing over here
