I can't show them but Paddy Bauer has sent several sharp tweets to TW lately - fully deserved. It's surprising that Tone's manager Nigel Pearson lets him get away such a poor attitude.
I thought for an awful minute when I saw that this thread had been resurrected that we had re-signed him. Then I realised that we couldn't afford to pay the £100m that he thinks he's worth.
It's rare that I really laugh at footballer banter, but this is two in one night. BFG showing why Germany is a country known for its humor.
Also, it looks like Tex is having a banging season at STTV. I'll always have a lot of time for him. He always came across as a really nice guy and is a very good footballer on his day. If things had been different I think he could have been a real cult hero for us.

I haven't got fond memories of him. He was one of many we have had over the last couple of seasons who looks the part but is an utter pussy. He got completely dominated by most centre forwards I saw him against, not quite as often as Sarr but more frequently than Bauer.
I'm sure they are all good company and nice blokes but I will not look back and wish many of the drossy cowards we have had foisted on us during this nightmare tenure were still here.

The BFG really needs to update his Twitter header picture, even if it that photo from the 2015/16 kit launch was in a beautiful location!
Tex went down in my estimation when he allowed himself to be suckered and sent off by Morison of Millwall. One can forgive a hotheaded youngster in such a situation but a 30 plus player who has been round the block like Tex should have known better.
One chapter closed. Another one opens. Thank you @ohl_official for the time I spent! Unfortunately I never played much football when the new manager came in but we left it on good terms. That’s football. I’ll have time to see my next step now!
if he is now a free agent, who would have him back till the end of the season?
Only if we have a situation where we need to bring him on in the 94th minute to hold the ball up at the corner flag. And even then I'm not sure that the corner flag wouldn't win the ball.
Tony Watt born with magic feet from Harrods, unfortunately his brain came from the pound shop. Rarely were they in sync. Maybe on 2 occasions against Forrest and the £5 game against Huddersfield if my memory serves me right. A Celtic legend predicted TW would be driving a bus by the time he was 28 ! That could still come to fruition.
I’d imagine a night out with Tony would be decent. Birds, booze, bugle horn finished off with a chicken shish.
Oh yeah. There’s little doubt that he would be a great bloke to be around. I got the impression that all the players loved him - until associating with him affected their careers.
He is the kind of bloke that you would love to have on speed dial but wouldn’t want your children or employees to know as his attitude could rub off on them.
I was on the table next to him at the POTY dinner.
I can confirm that TW is not a happy drunk, but a very, very, miserable one.
I would imagine it would be the worst night out imaginable...
I have a completely different experience. Met him in a bar in Glasgow just before Xmas. Although he didn't seem drunk, he was having drinks. Came across very well, had a really good conversation and he was happy to keep talking but I had to leave. Said some really good things about the club and his time here. Might have helped that it was probably a very unusual experience for him to bump into a Charlton supporter in Glasgow but he left a much better impression with me than I had heard from others.
This was me on my soapbox outside Tony's pad in Glasgow a couple of years ago. You can just see his name behind my left arm. I have changed my Taylor since this picture was taken.

So what?

Has this happened before to Watt?
"Tony, Watt a waste of talent"
@cabbles pretty sure that's the stuff they let you do...
If he cant cut it in the Belgian 2nd tier (where Fraeye didn't do badly with Lommel)... What does that tell you
