    It might be possible that Hylton has contributed more to the cause for his money than Methven, Rodwell and Scott combined.

    I’m not a fan of any of those but can you state what they have and haven’t contributed to the cause?

    likewise, what has hylton done/not done.

    i know the response will be the signing of ahadme, a Campbell etc, how about the signings of Coventry, Ramsay and small?

    apologies but posts like this do wind me up. Constant attack, same agenda without evidence to back it up.

    I said ‘it might be’.
    Danny Hylton has scored more goals for Charlton in friendlies and league games than the other three. That’s evidence.
    And how many contracts did he negotiate? Or how many players did he scout? 
    I don’t know the answer to that question, do you?

    How may community activities has hylton been involved in, how many tie ups etc with Caribbean clubs, how many sponsorship deals etc.

    obviously I do not have the answer to these questions, neither do I have an understanding of any of the aboves daily tasks!  However, I’m not spouting off about their lack of contribution despite not knowing what their contribution is.
    Is speculating the same as spouting off?
    In what sense have I commented on their ‘lack of contribution’?

    No but the point is that isn’t his job just as it isn’t Rodwell’s job to score goals. You created a ridiculous false equivalence that I was just poking a hole through

    No, and I have posted saying I do not know. I’m not the one making these ridiculous comparisons without substance.

    For what it’s worth, I thought Seth’s comment about goals scored was a light hearted joke.
    Maybe I’ve got that wrong, but it seems people are quite angered by it and I don’t really understand why.

    Or people or board and fed up with Seth bringing either politics or his disliking for a certain member of our SMT due to his private education into into every thread.

    Oh, I see.
    Not sure his comment went into that much detail or warranted such a response, but ok.
    I know Seth grinds some people’s gears at times, but the attacks seem a bit disproportionate on this occasion.

    So have we given him a new contract or not?
    We’re in no rush to really, think he can registered until mid march 
    If he’s coaching though he won’t be doing it for free
    Sure, wouldn’t be surprised if he was doing that on a casual freelance basis 
    Might be a case of we let him use the training facilities etc to keep himself fit and in exchange he helps out in training sessions "as a favour" and without a formal contract or agreement.
    We do understand he is still training to be a coach. The reason I make the joke about this being work experience (for Hylton) is that he is still studying for his A licence. Having access to training facilities and Nathan Jones' training sessions is good for his studies.

    In terms of him being a forward. Well we have about 7 forwards (if one gets injured he'll probably put his boots back on) so there is no rush to sign him up again.

    Sign him up to the Charlton Community Trust

    If he helps us get into playoffs then I'm all for it.
    If on the other hand we fail, I'll be straight back on this thread cursing the fella. 😉

    So he's basically a coach.

    Indeed centre forward is the one area where we have loads of depth anyway, considering that Miles and Kanu came off the bench on Saturday, Chuks didn't get on the field and Ahadme can't even make the 18.

    Couldn't agree more. I know he's become a bit of a jokey figure and we all enjoy that but he comes across really intelligently and really kindly. Completely different to his on pitch persona
  • 14 years ago, I predicted Nathan Jones as a future Charlton manager. Now I have the same feeling about Danny Hylton. Remember you heard it here first.

    Lots of "we" and "our" which I like to hear.

    Also, the great Curbs mantra don't get too high after a win, don't get too low after a defeat...

  • Excellent decision I think, the guy clearly has played a part with the morale and spirit in the team. Seems like a no brainer to keep him involved, wonder if we'll see him on the bench again

    Keep him in reserve until the playoffs, then unleash, obv

    He's like a real life Ted Lasso character. One of my favourite sub-genres of footballer is player who is an absolute psychopath on the pitch and a lovely person off it. Apparently Luis Suarez and Diego Costa were both really pleasant, chill people outside of football but as soon as they crossed that white line they were monsters. Nice to add Danny Hylton to that list.
