Red Army Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hey guys, here in peace. One of the more 'respected' members of a Forest forum is claiming that we're attempting to sign Chris Taylor from you. I've seen him a couple of times and he seems pretty pacey and direct. Would you guys think it's something that would be possible/likely? I know for a fact we looked at him last season, but nothing came of it. So we had previous interest in him, and despite changing managers, our transfer system involved a whole team of people as opposed to just the manager, which would make sense as to why he may still be a target. I notice he's only started 11 league games this season, has he been injured? I also noticed he only got one assist last season, although 11 goals. Would this indicate that he's not a great crosser of the ball? Cheers for any help and good luck for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc-latics Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 been injured this season but might be back tonight. for me taylor is too inconsistent. he can be great and unstoppable but he often drifts in and out of games. he wouldnt cut it in the top of the championship i dont think. good luck for the rest of the season, i didnt realise how high up in the league you were Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Cheers! Sounds like most wingers to be fair! You're doing bloody well if you find a consistent winger. Sssh! We don't want to make too much of a fuss about it, we're starting to attract media attention now, but the less said about us doing well, the better. (thanks though, Billy Davies has worked wonders) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Pizza Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 One of the best players ive seen over 3 years from Feb 2006 (debut against your lot) until Feb 2009. About a year of that he was simply brilliant. Personally from March last year and this season he's been no more than average. Did well against Hartlepool when he came on, love the lad to bits being a blue and all that, but he hasn't been that great this season through injury and what not Hope he finds that form again though whether it be for us, Forest or Leeds cause he deserves it. I WANT GINGER HAIR TOO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is shocking, terrible, i would seriously advise your manager not to make a move, wont improve ur team one bit, However, our star player is colbeck, 100% effort and bags of ability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_ragg1984 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 He is really good, but with your lot pushing for the Prem, then I think you would need better players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Ronnie Moore Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Taylor's crap, no pace, no intelligence on the pitch, can't dribble, can't shoot. He's a complete waste of space. I think the quality winger you're talking about is Joe Colbeck, a truly amazing player. Faster than Walcott, more precise dribbling skills than Messi, better at shooting than Henry, smarter than David James. He never falls over, always beats his man and has a lethal shot. Although we're pretty strapped for cash right now, you could probably get him of us for 70k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orenburg Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Scunthorpes manager was in the crowd tonight. Who could he have been watching? Sad day if a team like Scunny have eyes on signing someone from bigger clubs Latics and Tranny !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Forest could offer us £200k for both of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
