I'm sure some footballers want a little bit more than that. Like to be remembered with at least an ounce of fondness.
It makes me wanna weep when I think of the risks those people took on our behalf. Perhaps soldiers should duck out of troubled areas or firemen stop attending fires? I mean, these are dangerous tasks with a real risk of injury or worse. I assume they do it out of a sense of duty, honour and commitment to their public, their team members and to themselves.
Lyle Taylor was asked to play a couple of games of football ffs - as he was contracted to do - as he was more than handsomely rewarded to do. The chances of serious injury? Negligible.
Lyle Taylor may have a smart line in old chat, but thankfully he doesn't fool too many people.
He hasnt fooled me either ive just applied my own thoughts and can understand why he did it however I dont agree with them.
Before i head out on a run are there any more hypothetical scenarios you would like to compare how about knights slaying dragons ? Avengers fighting Thanos ? Santa refusing to work ?The idea 99% of us would do the same is highly insulting, I’ve seen out contracts whilst waiting to join a new company on more money, knowing I could just quit and give a months notice.
Why are you shouting ? We all understand he was under contract. You're not saying anything new or ground breaking we all understand he was under contract.
So in the last week of your contract, your current company ask you to do something which you are under contract to do but could jeopardize your move next week to a company that will pay you a life changing amount you would say ok mate ?. If you choose to be insulted pal thats on you.I had to shout as you said “ We are talking about a footballer who refused to play because the season have extended beyond its normal course” which simply isn’t true.2 -
Couple of things to add to the mix, although I think Taylor personally has behaved badly.
First, wasn’t all that end of season shenanigans also coloured by the pandemic and to an extent there was choice for players to play?
And secondly there remains in my mind the memory that for us, whenever Taylor was on the pitch he was good, gave everything, and often finished games as our strongest player, this is the upsetting bit. If he had been a Kirk-like player things would look different.3 -

I've known a few people like Lyle and for all they court attention through controversy and claim they don't care, in the end they want to be loved, they want to have their own little following and they do get upset about the sheer number of people who can't stand them.
It's all adding up a bit for Lyle now; he was really loved at Charlton until he refused to play and became hated. That was alright for him though because he was moving up in the world and what's a little scorched earth if it's behind you? But then the Forest move didn't really work out; he struggled to get in to the team, scored 4 goals and none of them after November. He'd joined a team that missed out of the Play-Offs on goal difference the season before, was supposed to score the goals to get them over the line and finished 17th. He wasn't wanted the next season, drifted in and out of the team before being loaned out to Birmingham. Forest finished 4th and got promoted to the Premier League without him. His one full season at Forest he contributed to them being closer to relegation than promotion and once they stopped figuring him into their plans they went up. That'll hurt. But he still had his money and was technically a Premier League player. He sat on the bench for two Premier League games and then didn't figure again for the entire season. Not one appearance even in the cups, a whole year of his career gone with Forest fans talking about how they couldn't wait to get rid of him and what a bad signing he was. He was released after that as a 33 year old who hadn't played in a year and wasn't picked up until November when Wycombe took a punt until January. Zero goals, zero assists, zero affection, the fans were happy when he left. But in came Cambridge in January. He could keep them up and become a hero to those fans at least. Except after an ok start he fell away, got his traditional weird needless red card, gave away a penalty and became despised by those fans too.
That's why he's snapped now; he still gets grief from Charlton fans for his conduct then, he's laughed at by Forest fans as a joke player, Wycombe fans wonder if he's actually a footballer and now even Cambridge fans are dishing it out while he's still there. He's used to being hated by everyone external but at least popular within his own sphere but now he can't even find love in the places he's at, the toxicity builds up while he's still there instead of after he's moved on. His career's winding down and he'll be looking at retirement or a L2 move at best and while he'll definitely be happy to count his money I think he'll regret that pretty much every set of football fans have turned their back on him and there's nowhere he can go and hear his name sung.3 -

One of his major strengths was his workrate and athleticism, pressing and stretching defenders. I was really surprised he was so ineffective at Wycombe, suggesting that either physically he can't do the running and harrying anymore OR he's lost the motivation.
I suspect the latter, as it's not as if he's had any major injuries.2 -

Nonetheless, like you say he broke his contract by refusing to play those three games and there's never been an adequate defence for that, either for him or Solly.2 - Sponsored links:

This may upset people as well but just also going to through out that Taylor weren't really that good for us in Championship for us. He scored 11 in 22 which sounds great (he had been injured a lot that season which may have been on his mind when he made his decision) but 4 of those were penalties. I'd argue losing Gallagher was more of a kick to our chances of survival.0

Lyle Taylor has also been sent off and gave away a penalty costing Cambridge 2 points.0 -
Here's where I stand on it. He made a decision in his own interest above that of the club. It was easy to understand because he explained it at the time. Taking the club interest as being paramount though, few think it was the right thing to do. Many assume it cost us our championship status. That will forever be debatable as being the sole reason, but few would argue it wasn't a contributory factor. Lastly, using social media to get back at his detractors only serves to invite more of the same.1

Taylor is still being talked about, Solly occasionally gets mentioned… I’m left wondering why everyone has forgotten David Davis?16
