Break The Silence Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 If he cannot make his points clearly then he is not fit for the position Have you never said anything that's come out not quite how you intended? Ever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Singe you need to get a grip, take sometime away from all this as you are coming across as an embittered individual. Having heard Gordon Taylors interview the media headlines again are scarmongering and pandering to the baying crowd for blood by taking it completely out of context.

leeslover Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 It's a fair point that he might not have been in the best frame of mind when he made that statement. However, it should be taken in context of him going out of his way to support Evans, which his organisation had no need to do. He seems to see Evans as the victim of an injustice and it is highly offensive to equate him to genuine victims. But anyway, let's hope he's the last public figure to stick his oar into the whole bloody business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I am still curious as to the PFA's exact stance. The Evans debate has split the country. Everyone has a view. I would be stunned if there weren't a few in the Latics dressing room, any dressing room, who would be deeply unhappy sharing it and playing with Evans at all. The PFA represent those players as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclaire Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I don't understand why he was wheeled out this week, should be in bereavement leave. Is there literally no one else at the PFA able/willing to read a statement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaddySmoker Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Have you never said anything that's come out not quite how you intended? Ever? Yes but I am not paid a Million a year to be a spokesperson for a body of employees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceStationLatic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Good conversation on Twitter regarding this involving @PhilGiddingz - puts someone, seemingly incandescent with rage and calling for Taylor's head to roll, in their place quite well. But good points from both sides of the fence.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceStationLatic Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 (edited) So, as usual, this is basically just the lynch mob mentality of gaining a bit of personal satisfaction by forcing someone high profile, but moreover in a well-paid position, to fall on their sword? Pointing the finger and attacking someone else, and bringing about a fall from grace, is a good way to channel personal feelings of frustration about one's self. People make an active choice to be offended. Sometimes it's justified, but often it says a lot more about the person who's offended rather than the person alleged to be offending. Misery loves company, and dragging people down to their own miserable level...... Edited January 9, 2015 by IceStationLatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you werent refering to me then please dont quote me. I wasnt offended by Taylor in fact I have met the bloke-it was then that I was offended, I didnt like him at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
