HarryBosch Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Good luck to him. Most naturally gifted player we've produced in years. Never quite fulfilled the potential though, did he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted May 31, 2012 Author Share Posted May 31, 2012 There was a time he could have shagged our wives. The last few seasons I might have let him feel her arse at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24hoursfromtulsehill Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I think he did fulfill his potential. Brilliant player for us. He'll be badly missed. Anyone cussing him for not getting us a transfer fee is an eejit, by the way. The lad's got to look after himself a little bit. Not sure how well the Den faithful will take to him though, although his tendency to get injured from the most minor contact with opponents will no doubt go down well.

oafc joe Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm not that bothered he's going to be honest, certainly didnt produce last season, I am lot more fussed about lee going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Oafc Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Im suprised he's chosen millwall, but he probably feels he'll get the most game time there! I think the change will do him good, and he'll go on to do well in the championship! I dont get all the negativity towards him! He's one of our own and has turned down the opportunity to go before! Good luck Chris! Edited May 31, 2012 by Gaz_Oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Good luck, Chris, and thanks for the years of service. I hope you find your top form again, but I think you could have done better than a one year deal at Millwall. Still, playing in a terrific stadium backed by passionate (but, sadly, surviving brain donor) fans should bring out the best in you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshgaz Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm not that bothered he's going to be honest, certainly didnt produce last season, I am lot more fussed about lee going the Taylor of old who chipped in with a goal or two and went past players has been replaced by an industrious grafter who does a job for the team. Both effective in their own rights but the latter doesn't get the credit it deserves. Good luck to him, I think we can replace him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Milwall have got themselves a player there. He's been the shining light in some poor teams over recent seasons even whilst carrying injuries. As for them but liking his gamesmanship? They'll love it, the idea is to win the three points, if one of your players bends the rules a bit then you're mad to argue when they get away with it.

ceskylatic Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 I'm not that bothered he's going to be honest, certainly didnt produce last season, I am lot more fussed about lee going Irrespective of Lee getting Player of the Season and being consistent he's a Right Back and I'd have thought not too difficult to replace whereas we've now got to try and find a suitable replacement at Left Wing who's going to put the balls in for Kuqi or whoever to get the goals.

ghostofcecere Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Good luck Chris, thanks for the memories! Millwall is a very odd choice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyres_28 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 we knew this moment was coming for 3 months but it's still a sad day to lose one of our own. Irrespective of his gamesmanship and dwindling form, he always gave 100% for the cause and all the moaners in my stand in particular will see how we miss him when everyone hides away from the ball in difficult situations this season. Good luck Chris, amazing how the haters can get at their own and vividly watch his confidence wearing away, like we did with Eardley. Your service at times when players ever so rarely stick out more than a season with clubs has been a credit to you and your Oldham roots. 275+ games of 100% effort. Thanks CHRIS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Good luck Chris, thanks for the memories! Millwall is a very odd choice though. I'm guessing the other clubs who were interested had second thoughts or didn't want to offer himthe kind of deal he was expecting. No disrespect to Millwall but there were strong rumours of Huddersfield being linked who were crying out for a left winger but haven't signed him. Edit - forgot to say good luck to the lad. Served us well regardless of what people think of his impact last season and I'll always respect and welcome him as a fellow OAFC fan Edited May 31, 2012 by Midsblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Or, looking at it another way. Taylor has opted for the move that appeared to the most likely; signing for a manager who has tracked him for a while, and signed for a side where he will, IMO, start games and do very well. Good luck Chris. You deserve this chance at a higher level, and IMO, you'll thrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfatjoe1 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Loyal and hard working as well as one of our more talented youngsters. I hope he does really well for you himself. He also deserves the benefits of a free transfer. Good luck ct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stargazer Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 When he first broke in the team , I thought he was the best attacking player the club had ever devoleped rather than bought in my years as a fan. Could only see the Premier League for him , as he terrorised full backs. Millwall a step up from us , but not where I thought he would be by now.

jsslatic Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Thank you Chris, and good luck. He deserves a shot at a higher level and I'm sure if it doesn't go right then he'll be welcomed back with open arms. Never thought I'd say/write these words, but hoping for Millwall in the Cup next season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticdickovarmy Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Remember we are replacing the Taylor of last season not the one of 3 or 4 years ago! Good luck Chris but sure he was up there as the highest earner so glad he is off the wage bill if im honest Wouldnt be suprised if dont work out and he is back next season on a loan at some stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Had a horrible feeling he'd end up at the Gayfarm so pleased that didn't happen, surprised he's ventured so far down Sarf though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
