Kit Graham, the women's team Lyle Taylor signed yesterday for Tottenham women.... yes disappointing for our women's team... the problem is that she is already contracted to Charlton women and has not been released from that contract. Rather than the FA saying to Tottenham... "sort out the contract issue with Charlton then we will register her" …. no the FA have just pretended that the Charlton contract doesn't exist? Makes a bit of a joke of womens football doesn't it if they ignore English contract law? AllHell
Pretty poor way to behave if true. I suppose there's some weasel-worded legal technicality involved. Very depressing. Slightly provocative thread title there AHLL
I'm thinking of supporting the women's team next season instead of the blokes. Am I right in thinking RD doesn't own the women's Club?
Maybe they need a bit of extra support. I don't know really, it was only a thought. But (try as I might) I can't recapture that feeling I used to have for Charlton Athletic while the old Belgian scrote still owns the Club. I was hoping that being back in the Championship would help, and for a couple of games that old magic seemed to be back for me. But I was just kidding myself I think. What really made me face my lack of emotional attachment was that I actually thought calmly and with some detachment about the concept of a merger with Crystal Palace, without feeling the overwhelming urge to vomit. So rather than just drift away from being a Charlton fan altogether while I'm waiting to see which of us (RD or me) dies first, I thought I might try something a bit different and perhaps support the women's team.
