  • I really don't think he'll care that much, if he cared more about football and less about money we'd not have had this issue.

    Yes Forest are doing badly so far but he's still got his £3-4m contract.
    "Look here Charlton fans, I don't care about what I did.  I never have to work again now I signed this contract for Forest".
    This is the reality.
    Yep. 3 years on £15k pw week means he would probably have the equivalent of £100k per year tax free for the next 50 years to live on with no mortgage if he retired at the end of the contract.

    I wonder how many slagging him off would not have done the same.

    99.9% would have made the move. No issue with that at all.

    It’s the breaking of contract mid-relegation battle which is where I think that number comes down enormously.....
    Exactly, he could have simply played and still got the move.

    Breaks his leg in the 3 games and no life changing move.

    Cant believe this still has to be explained months after it happened. 
    It's because people are too busy getting poo on their noses to understand why we were all so pissed at him.

    Let's be honest here, Forest weren't his life changing move. He expected Brentford to come back in for him. 

    He obviously alienated them with his behaviour.

    I'm expecting he does not have to work again with this Forest contract.
  • Taylor would have his people in his ear saying if you get injured you could fuck your one big payday up .

    This is where a proper club with some leadership pays £100k for a £4m insurance policy to cover Lyle Taylor in the unprecedented times we were in to play out the last 9 games .

    I'm up for the job Thomas .

    cancel that , imagine having to deal with our cry baby fan base ... Thomas will see that soon enough when things don't go as hoped .
    Yeah, just wait until we don't sell out our next away allocation. 
  • Is solly and lyle first players to refuse to play for Charlton?

    I would not play for Southall, so I have some sympathy for them

    Hasselbaink was another.  He was different, he decided this once on the pitch.
    Even apologising for doing his job...

    You could say that about anyone hoping to get a transfer or contract the next season.

    Most blatant p*** take ever.

    If he invests it wisely he won't have to work but Taylor fancies himself as clever boy and that could easily get him into financial trouble.

    The 3 games when still under contract are the reasons he will never show his face at Charlton again. Fraser won't at Bournemouth; he had been at the cherries for 10 years, FFS and that's how he repaid the club.
    Hendricks did the same at Burnley and won't ever be welcome back there.

    I understood the last six games, even though I was gutted. Unless we were in his position of getting a 300 to 400% rise over 3 years we might wrap ourselves up in cotton wool as well ? Cafc were his employer not his true love like many of us. (Shit employers as well during his time at Cafc)

    We hope he continues to struggle and just spends time counting his money.

    Let's move on, like Lyle has moved on.

    The wasted opportunity of Grant and Taylor still rankled but I will have to take my own advice.
  • Breaks his leg in the 3 games and no life changing move.

    You could apply this to every player all the time.

    Dougherty should stop turning out for us as he might break a leg and ruin a life changing move to Celtic.

    Bonne should stop turning out for us as he might break his leg and ruin a life changing move to QPR

    Levitt should stop turning out for us as he might break his leg and ruin his future chances of playing for United's first team.

    Baker should stop turning out for us as he might break his leg and ruin his development and end his career at 17

    Etc etc
    Rubbish, it's not the same arguement.

    It literally is.

    I disagree strongly on that.
  • I suspect Taylor also reacted to being treated atrociously by the club in January. Of course this was by Southall who we all hate, but Taylor would have seen it as the club stitching him up. He will also have seen not being given the chance to up his salary negatively.

    I think whilst the above is true, he clearly didn't think about his team mates and to a lesser extent the fans. Sadly for him, the former will follow him.
