    Coming from more than one source. How ITK is Cawley these days? Enough to know who we are negotiating with? 

    Edit* ignore as only has 62 followers and a few days ago posted that we were signing Stockton. Cawley is more ITK than this account. 
    Looks like a charlton fan having a laugh, only ever post about Charlton and Man Utd.. Why would you even start beleive it.. 
    He is in the Premier League aka the big boys club. Why would he take a pay cut and drop down to L1?

    Lyle Taylor strikes me as the sort of player that will just rot in the U23s at Forest and happily take home his wedge until his contract expires

    Especially as now he’ll title himself as a ‘premier league striker’

    Charlton often need other things to happen for transfers to take place.
    There have been (low) bids for both JFC & Gilbey from the same club.
    if clubs we are looking to buy from, hold out for fees, then it makes sense that we hold out as well to balance the budget……. Bids happen and are rejected or put on hold…… it sometimes needs one to be accepted for the dominos to fall….. and sometimes those dominos don’t fall at all. Gallen’s role is key.
    Both JFC & Gilbey were in Luton trying new golf clubs out, read what you want in to that... 
    Can you imagine if they both went to Luton? Promoted to the championship by being injured and bang average!
  • Removing the "previous/emotion" a moment. 

    Why would we want to sign a striker over 30 who has barely played in 2 years and made life changing money meaning his hunger won't be there and who is falling down the leagues to a level he would think himself better than. 
    Plus, in his career he has done better where he is the main man. He wouldn't be now.
    Busted flush. No thanks.

    Adding back the "previous/emotion"
    The best moment of his career is at a club who will never welcome him back and who's fans generally hate him.
  • The idea that anyone would consider that Lyle Taylor would rip up his contract, to move to a club where he will be hated by a large portion of the fans, FOR A PAYCUT is hilarious frankly

    Quite like the Taylor chat as it signals who knows/understands their football and who just reads tabloids/twitter.

    People really think someone would tear up their contract to take a pay cut ✂️?

    If you do then think who the player in question is.

    If you still do, seek help.
    He basically tore up his contract with us so you never know.

    If you get paid up most of your contract then it makes no difference does it? If you’ve got a year left on 10k a week and get offered 300k to rip it up you're laughing. Obviously on the condition you’ve got a 5k offer on the table.

    Because he has "proved himself" whatever that is...and got his big money move, now realises he is useless and can't/don't want to play, just rake in the loot which is his own mantra, so anyone take him back... wouldn't bet against him trying to get back here, depends if Thomas has been given the sp..😎

    Lyle is a big fat no from me and can’t see him dropping to league 1. He sees football as a job and nothing more, he’d play 21’s football if it meant he’d get his 15k a week or whatever he’s on now at Forest.

    If Taylor is prepared to have his contract torn up and take a pay cut then I’m afraid that Charlton would be way down the list of clubs who would be interested in taking him on those terms. I’m filing this with the Wilkes rumour.

    As stated earlier, Forest would have to pay up his contract, so it would be a pay rise.

    He can still fuck off thoigh.

    I know we all want a striker but under no circumstances this one. I would rather play with 10 men every week than have him gleefully waving at us after scoring

    If he ever returns then I'm out. I'll not go to a single match whilst he is with us & I'll even send my season ticket back.

    He basically went on strike & did not see out his contract (not even counting that 99% of players in the EFL played past their usual contract date). He was probably the single most reason why we got relegated that season & if not for him we could be still in the Championship or perhaps even in the Premier League. To have stayed up we needed just 1 more point & most games in the "closed doors" season we needed a single goal to turn a loss into a draw or a draw into a win. ! goal. And i'm sure Taylor seeing out the season he would have scored that goal. 
    Dont send your season ticket back, ill have it of you for a tenner, i dont bear any grudges against Taylor

    I think we all know that there is zero chance of this happening. 

    That being said, if he did rejoin, I doubt that anyone would actually tear up their season ticket. He did the dirty on us, but he would massively improve the team, and would give us an enormous boost on the way to promotion. 

    Getting out of League One has to be the priority, whatever it takes.

    Exactly this.
    And if he did leave he would go to whoever paid the most wages.
    Either way that rules us out.

    Fans are a fickle bunch. Some would be singing “he plays when he wants” after a couple of penalties and goals…

    Really?  So being taken over by Putin’s right-hand oligarch or a Colombia drug cartel would be OK if it guaranteed us promotion?  If not, where do you draw the line?

    It’s absolute fantasy imo. 

    There’s only one scenario where he joins and that’s if he feels there’s unfinished business, he’s had a change of heart and feels he owes us for how sour it went. Do I think Lyle is that kind of character? Absolutely not. I think it’s far more likely he ends up at a Championship side pushing for promotion or maybe even goes abroad. 

    That said he would drastically improve us and I am very much in the party of if he said he was sorry and helped us get promoted I couldn’t care what he did. 

    He’s human and he made a mistake
    He'll turn it around that he was the victim in all this.

    Lyle Taylor owes us big time … the least he could do is rip up his contract and play for us for free this season …. then the fans might just start to forgive !!!

    Whilst I don’t agree with him I don’t think he quite meant that haha.

    We know the talent he has at THIS level, but would never be accepted by our fan base and would have to be as psychologically impaired as morally bereft he is to entertain ever stepping foot back on our turf in red and white (ours). A total non-starter.
