Kept us up that first half season for us in my opinion so, pompey open goal miss aside, owe him for that. After that a bit of meh!

Got some important goals but not necessarily the player I hoped we'd signed. Thanks Mr Taylor, now for who's in...

reports are emerging that Matty has passed his rigorous West Ham medical...

he walked past a line of 4 asthmatic 90yr olds who all blew on him as he passed... he only stumbled twice - and so, passed with flying colours...

Bugger. Spoilt the joke.

No Ba passed the medical, that was the joke. He didn't pass the one at Stoke which is why they didn't sign him in the end
Pfffft.

I could never give credence to the reports of the amount of ground that he covered, cos he looked (to me) like a right lazy shite.

I fear we will miss him. We definitely will as it stands. Those calling him lazy and ignoring the data should probably take a trip to specsavers. However it will be ok when the next Carlos Kickaball comes in does 1 stepover a game but bugger all else the scoreboard corner will still love him for his Skillz!

I agree he was very slow - but in his 1st few months I thought he was good, he had bags of energy and was all the pitch, I seem to recall in one of his first few games he had a belter but managed to miss an open goal from a yard stretching for the ball absolutely knackered after running all over the pitch as he had done throughout the game, but the following season he went rapidly down hill and looked a totally different player, slow, lethargic and very limited which must have been due to the illness he had.

I'm happy that he's gone (he was on a very good wage which is now freed up for others), because as I've said before if we are ever to seriously improve as a team, then we do need better quicker players than Taylor, IMO he's now a very average prem player but he will most likely excel at WHU and score plenty of goals for them at Championship level.
