Only time i see a newspaper is on a Saturday morning up at the old mans house. He takes The Sun, The Mail and The Express (a great combination i am sure you agree?)
Almost projectile vomitted today when i stumbled on Taylors piece in The Sun. Utter self apologist. Utter shite!
Lyle Taylor knew his worth. He was a journeyman footballer until he was 28 and suddenly he had a choice: Sunderland or Charlton ? He choose CAFC because he would be closer to family and his roots, plus Lee Bowyer could improve him as a player. After 3 matches Lee told Lyle he had to work harder off the ball; Taylor's giant ego nearly exploded ! BUT, he responded and suddenly the nearly man became the main man at a club similar to his time at the smaller fan base club AFC Wimbledon.
Lyle Taylor Baby, who was loved and named by the club synonymous with Tennis, was determined to smash it at Cafc; Love was in the air. Lyle was an instant hit, and lauded by the fickle Charlton fans who will turn on players young or old if they don't perform like Roy of the Rovers, most matches.
It's well documented, what choice Taylor made ! He was poorly paid in Championship terms and had been stitched up by various owners of Charlton ? (Ten a penny, or the pound shop) and after the Brentford deal didn't happen because Duchatelet with the club's value in mind, felt it didn't suit, to lose the club's main scorer, assists man, striker, winger, and larger than life character rolled into one. Off the peg or bespoke, Taylor was a Journeyman no more. Lyle Taylor knew his worth.
I will let others hate him. Like a relationship which runs it's course, I won't let the good times be tarnished by the split. We were in utter chaos off the pitch and a 30 year old decided to have one great pay day; 3 years in fact.
He should've had that great pay day with CAFC, just like Karlan Grant, who Lyle mentored so well.
As a Charlton fan I'm gutted that he put his career before the dysfuntional CAFC. Forest is a great move for him. He will improve the fragile Forest and they will finish in the top 6 in 20/21.
Carry on hating. Was Sid James in that one?
Too many posters on CL just want likes, LOL and promotes !
CL posters don’t just want likes and lols, we wanted Charlton to stay up! Lyle prevented that from happening! All this bull about him knowing his worth!!!! Shame he didn’t know that he was under contract!

To a degree, I can understand what your getting at, but his team mates were also party to what was going on behind the scenes. Cullen needn't have bothered as it wasn't his club. Lockyer could've took the foot off the pedal cos he knew release clause, Matthews one year contract ... I could go on about players with their thoughts & personal feelings. But at the end of the day, they walked over the line & had a go for us, because that's all WE want. I don't do this, "little petal" thing with players. I pay my money, if you don't perform & walk off the pitch without putting a shift in your a target!! Im not fickle, but I know what I want from a player, if I got a "v" sign from Aizlewood/Bullivant as we did, probably draw the line at the Peter Shaw song, I knew & they did, we,wasn't happy with their contribution. Aizlewood proved us wrong, as did Luke Young. Simon Francis is probably the only one I could hold my hands up. The only credit I would give him is his charity work or when he divulged about certain team mates who would dive out the fire exit rather than rub shoulders with the fans....
instantly forgettable player from a forgettable time in our history
Basically, his behaviour is exactly why, at the age of 30, he is where he is in his career. He has probably self destructed wherever he has gone because that is exactly what he has done with us. Good riddance to him.
Lyle is the sort of bloke that would Google his own name and end up scrolling through each of the 198 pages of this thread.
Odd to consider how much of his energy he continues to exude on little old Charlton since his life changing move. Surely he should be fully focused on the task of helping Forest to their 21st consecutive championship season of being absolutely medicore?!
Tbh it’s his first game properly, I’m not going to say he’s shit because he literally got us relegated he’s a fantastic player just a spineless Cnut.
The whole big boy school comments etc I just find childish for a player of his age, won’t see much of him this season but if he’s happy to play 2nd fiddle says a lot about his character the clubs in for him were Celtic, stoke and West Brom hardly the top tier that he was banging on about.
