What a loss to the world… I do wonder why he did it now though?

Hopefully he deletes his association with the football club too.

So we won’t get to see his attention seeking needy tweets anymore? Let’s hope that’s the last we ever hear of him in a #cafc capacity. Up The Addicks

What do we think?
Southall has been a controversial figure among Charlton fans in recent months. As per TalkSPORT, he became embroiled in a public “power struggle” with the Addicks’ majority shareholder Tahnoon Nimer, which the club’s manager Lee Bowyer publicly shared some regret over.
Furthermore, it may be fair to say that Southall might also have caused Charlton some embarrassment when police were “called in to seize two club cars worth over £100K” from Southall earlier this month, as per the Daily Mail.
Considering that he has arguably created some bad press for the club recently, it may be understandable why Southall might not be very popular among Addicks fans and it may be understandable why these Charlton supporters seem happy that his Twitter account is no longer active.
