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". ???
I don't like him but if I'm really honest, I think he might be mentally unwell.
Remember that strange overly dramatic tweet he did when he was moaning a lot about Charlton fans being rather close to where he lived?
I think he was in an emotional state, I also think it was a partial lie. Which is a part of the problem.
On the flip side and most of the time, on the field of play, he would give it 100%.
I think he has genuine issues which may or may not be his fault.
He had a good work ethic but he might also be a damaging complicated overly outspoken character. He knows it doesn't help. He knows life isn't a TV drama.
The bloke needs psychological help.
On the surface, it is hard to spot his downside, but I think internally, he is a mess.
His personal life is not our business and it's not our problem.
I really just want him to f*ck off as soon as possible. Please never mention Charlton ever again.
The players that do play for us and work really hard for Charlton and under the guidance of bowyer, deserve praise and credit.
We need to give them a lift.
Even if it will just be on something like Twitter, as they won't be able to hear us.
Lyle just needs to sod off and take his unhealthy drama with him.
It's not good for the club. It's now just very damaging and it wasn't really worth having him on board. Which sounds really stupid as he scored loads of goals and very much helped us get promoted out of league one.
That's fine Robbie but in that case clubs should also be able to dishonour contracts...we're not gonna pay you for the rest of the season as we want to put the wages to a better player. We've thought long and hard at it and sat staring at the telly til 5am but it's the best for the club. Soz.

Imagine that. Would love to see lyles next club do that to him. Haha.
Savage's view is the last one I'd listen to seeing the amount of times he's tried to force through moves in his career
When Savage was at Birmingham he wanted a move to Blackburn as it was closer to his parents house in Wrexham. Turns out it was farther from Blackburn to Wrexham than Birmingham to Wrexham. But could have been that his mate Mark Hughes was managing Blackburn, who knows?
we've been to quite a few player of the season dinners over recent years, but I don't feel inclined to go again. You finish the evening thinking what a fine bunch of people the players are, and six months later 2 or 3 of them shaft the fans.
Footballers are not playing for the fans, they are playing for themselves, it's their job.
so you know every single player in the league and what motivates them do you
I take it you disagree with my post, or you are being pedantic.

And there was I thinking the likes of D'Canio always became a fan when at different clubs...it certainly felt like he did ,and Sir Chris and Lord Bowyer .
I always smile when I see footballers kiss the badge. Mo Johnson did it playing for both Celtic and Rangers.

No, he was wiping his mouth on the***tic badge, in readiness to kiss the queens 11 badge

This. Some players it seems don't give a shit. Taylor has said that he hates Millwall because if the way they treated when he was there as a youngster, but I bet if they got taken over by a billionaire & offered him a £30k a week deal he'd sign like a shot.
It's not great when Robbie Savage is sticking up for you - albeit in a contrived 'radio jock' debate.
'Brand Lyle' has been damaged. It does make you feel a little cynical about how many of his attention-grabbing activities were driven by that. The reputational fallout won't worry him too much now but it may impact upon him couple of years down the line if (despite his protestations that he doesn't like football) he wants to do something which earns him a few bob in the game.

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

I take it you disagree with my post, or you are being pedantic.
Chris Sutton speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, said:
“The one thing I can’t understand is that he has a contract. He is not fulfilling his contract.
“Are Charlton still paying him? They shouldn’t be paying him. And I have to say that if I was in his dressing room I’d pin him up against a wall.
“He’s letting his club down. He’s talking about his future, and I get that from a personal point of view.
“But what about his teammates? What if they get relegated? What happens to their contracts? It is so selfish. He’s totally let his teammates down.”
Hero to Zero, Lyle.
Even most of your fellow professionals think so.
