  1. I do watch him SS and that's the crux of the problem.

     

    OK, I will be honest, I perhaps over egg my pudding a little when it comes to being critical of Taylor, but I think it is a natural reaction after reading all the stuff typed about him on here.

     

    All this 'he is still a kid' 'he is playing on the left not the right' garbage really gets up my wick

     

    The 'kid' has over 100 first team appearances under his belt. Hardly a novice.

     

    Everyone's favourite 'play him on the right' rubbish

     

    OK, he is playing out of position, but the same rules apply I would think. What works on the right, will work on the left do we not all think? Why not try it then Chris?

     

    Why sit twenty yards further back on the left than you would on the right? Why let all your defenders (fan type) reel off untruths about teams doubling up on you when the truth is in fact, that if you moved just ten or fifteen yards further forward as play developed, the second man (that being the oppo right midfielder) would be left trailing in your wake leaving you one on one with the full back.

     

    It isn't like we are asking a binman to perform open heart surgery here, we are asking a footballer to play football in probably not his favourite position. Apologies to all binmen that have tried to perform open heart surgery - it can't have been as bad as Chris 'I will gaze at my boots' Taylors efforts on the left.

     

    I'm not sorry about venting my spleen continually about him, but it sickens me to see all the defending of his very ordinariness (at very best) just because he is an Oldham fan - so very many of you think he is some sort of ginger demi god.

     

    He isn't anything of the sort, he was a promising kid that like so many before him looks destined for lesser things in my opinion.

     

    500k minimum? You are all having a laugh. His whole career transfer moves wouldn't tally up to that if he had more clubs than Windass.

     

    As for the Wellens for Taylor swap rumour. Every single day of the week I would take it. Absolutely every single day.

     

    KtF,

     

    Derek.

     

    I think Taylor is a good player, and really want him to stay, but have to agree with Derek, Wellens and 200K and some of the other rubbish thats spouted on here is a bit ridiculous. Id swap Taylor for Wellens if Wellens had to play on one leg!!

  2. if he was anything like he was when he left us then fair enough.....but just because allotts return has worked out well,doesnt automatically suggest that a muzza return would.

     

    eardly has done well in his new role,and if he is still here come pre season i would be tempted to play him there in the friendlys,and see how he does.nobody knows if it will work out,but against crewe it onviously did,and he didnt look out of place,and has a cracking shot on him.

     

    1600 players out of contract up and down the league...you honestly telling me there is no one better than a battered and bruised paul murray.

     

    Yep absolutely agree - Eardley might be the answer, but huge risk to assume that a player can change into a central midfielder from full back on the back of a couple of performances. even if he is the answer, who is back up to these two? Lets not forget Muzza gives the extra option of being able to play on the right too - versatility is gold dust at our level - this really does just make good sense as far as im concerned.

     

    Yes i honestly believe that out of the 1600, when you whittle these down to creative central midfielders, then down to players that would be prepared to play in league one, then the players who live in, or want to move to, or commute to the north west, then the players with experience (which we obviously need), then the players whose wage demands we could meet, then we are left with a number of players that i could count on one hand.

     

     

    If he is 80% the player that he was first time round - i'd sign him tomorrow

  3. As long as we are not breaking the bank this has got to be a great move for us. We know he has a bit of quality so at the very least he is a good addition to the squad. If he stays clear of injuries he could well be a regular first teamer capable of unlocking defences - something we never had all last season - even with Kilkenny.

     

    Cant believe people are saying Allott and Eardley are the answer in the middle - bit of a chance to take after a couple of games IMO

     

    Finding a player in Murray's mould is not easy at this level - so i really think signing Muzza is a no-brainer.

     

    And as to re-signing Wellens.......... hahaha....... in our dreams, if we did we would walk the league next season if coupled with a left winger.

  4. I can't believe anyone can bring themselves to support United in anyway, they make me physically sick. They're exactly what's wrong with football and their fans are completely ignorant to it all and have some ridiculous idea that the whole footballing world revolves around them. The amount of clowns who think they're massive fans because they never miss a televised game, bunch of nobs. Even worse are those that started the FCUM bull****, who made there own team and compared what happened to them to what happened to Wimbledon. It isn't close you self righteous morons! An American took over and made you better than you possibly ever have been, wimbledon fans had their team stolen from them ffs, how is that the same?! If they were playing against a team comprised of Hitler and his mates, there STILL wouldn't be any contest for who I was supporting!!!

     

    :rant.sml:

     

    Don't think I could ever put it any better than that - I never never never never never never never never want the scum to win! Im ABUOA Anyone but united or Arsenal - Mainly because its morally wrong for an English team to have no Englishmen in it (or one now and again) and i don't care how pretty the football is you can keep it wenger you pillock - Rant over!

  5. I'd try and get Jarrett, Livermore and Constantine signed up in pre-seaon.

    Hopefully they'd be free but on a decent wage.

    We were gonna pay Killkenny £8,000 a week.

     

    Get all your injured players back and bobs your uncle.....automatic promotion next season.

    Eardley, Stam, Hazell,Livermore,

    Taylor,Jarrett, Allott,Liddell,
