Because he's a divisive character and says controversial (trolling) shite, gets the clicks and views in, the waste of space is pure rage bait for media outlets and they love him for it.1 -

I remember Taylor being very supportive of the poor lady who passed away.0

I think the Solly issue is a non story. Everyone would be guessing his motives but if as has been said, he hadnt played for over 6 months as he was out of favour and was told he wouldnt get a new contract even if we got relegated, maybe quite simply he was playing tit for tat with LB. ie, i'll honour my contract (even though i know you wont play me for those 3 games), but f*ck off am i then playing at risk afterwards for someone who has binned me off previously. Yes his career with us was over but why be overtly friendly for a manager who you may dislike immensely and risk getting the call, getting seriously injured and then being in a tricky situation? Human factors in this. I do my job as best I can but if my manager treats me like shite they get no extra from me, why should he be different?0

And now there is a thread dedicated to the podcast that has reignited the flames 🤣Garrymanilow said:Feels like groundhog day this. The Lyle Taylor situation somehow comes up again > Charlton fans are still upset > Radostanradical disagrees and wants everyone to know > argument ensues > Radostanradical starts trolling > someone bites > argument eventually ends until Lyle Taylor somehow comes up again. I'm amazed people are still getting sucked in. There's not going to be agreement at the end of this, better if everyone just moves on.
Can't we just call the FA up to say we want Chelmsford City in the FA Cup 3rd round (doesn't matter about the draw/them having ti qualify for it) just so we can have our game where we have a bash at Lyle Taylor and be done with it.1 -
Maybe we should get him to put it in a special jar. Then by the end of the year we'll have that 10k Taylor wanted of usRaith_C_Chattonell said:I'd love a pound for every post @Radostanradical has made on Lyle 'kin Taylor1 -

J.Cousins also played against his former employers and Gassan Ahadme was playing against his future ones.0 -
I got to tell him to his face……he was most upset.🫢6

@Radostanradical - Morning Lyle, how are you? What you up to today? Getting your hair died? Oh cool - what colour you going for this time?2

All good mate you ? Counting my money and putting in a claim for the 70k im owed, nah i like this.cafc_se7 said:@Radostanradical - Morning Lyle, how are you? What you up to today? Getting your hair died? Oh cool - what colour you going for this time?1 -
Those tools presenting just nod along and agree with everything that the guests say. I’ve only watched the Charlton based ones but it’s the Fosters of football podcasts.4

That whole podcast is essentially ex pros talking about their shitty behavior whilst at various clubs whilst the moron presenters just laugh along.3

It was very interesting to see how Taylor was badly treated with the club asking for a price then upping it when Brentford said they would pay the price asked.Like the Wetherspoons snob @Radostanradical I have always understood why he made the stance whilst accepting it was wrong to do. However, now hearing what Charlton did to him I can fully appreciate why he did it, he had seen a life changing move disappear so when another chance came up he made the decision not to play.1

Was Taylor actually treated in a “terrible way” by the club?Radostanradical said:
Mostly because what you say is not facts, there are some states coupled with opinion, its makes the whole thing even more bizarre? Why would Solly refuse to play if he knew he wasnt going to anyway?Addick Addict said:
Can we put this to bed once and for all?se9addick said:If Solly was willing to play if needed, why didn’t he return? Fear of injury in training?
Solly was never going to be picked by LB. He hadn't been selected in the previous six months and was told he wasn't good enough to be offered a new contract even if we went down. In the games that Solly refused to play post covid and when under contract, we did not concede a single goal. We beat both Hull and QPR 1-0 and drew with Cardiff 0-0. We didn't need him for those games. That season we won, in total, three of the 15 games Solly started. So how, exactly, was he going to improve the side?
Solly was thrown under the bus because it suited LB to do so, along with Davis, as he wanted to create a "them and us" siege mentality. Yet not one person ever calls Davis out, do they? Solly might have been Club captain but LB didn't think he was good enough as proven by us not offering him a new contract and the very next season he was playing in the Conference.
That is why he is back with us a coach. Because it suited the narrative at the time to make him a scapegoat. And yet, the one who really did hurt us, Taylor, was forgiven in a nanosecond by LB who then signed him when manager at another club.
I find it really strange that fans struggle with all the facts before them when the Club, who know absolutely everything that went on, welcomed Solly back with open arms as a coach. I just don't get that. There are far more serious things in life going on than venting ones spleen on someone who wasn't wanted by us at the time, despite the message that LB wanted to convey at that time, anyway.
Dress it up however you like but people are more forgiving to Solly because "he is one of our own" as oppossed to Taylor who actually sets out the terrible way he was treatrd by the club. Do i agree with Taylor refusing to play ? No not in a million years, Do i understand it ? 100%
Very much so given the story behind the Brentford offers being rejected after telling Charlton they'd pay the price wanted.

Not a chance, even if he was holding back as he had a bit of compassion (i doubt it), he would be sueing the the club as soon as there was a sniff of stabel ownership... hope they go after him for libelgringo said:

Agree with this but Im surr some of our fans will say its a lie as it suits there agenda, though still say there is no actual defence fir not playing the games he was contracted for but I can understand his positionElfsborgAddick said:se9addick said:
