September 28, 201114 yr There's just something about him that I can't stand. I know he's the PFA Chairman but it seems that he can't ever bring himself to ever admit that a player has ever done anything wrong. Although it might just be his voice that annoys me.
September 28, 201114 yr I wonder if his constant defending of obscenely paid players is in any way related to the fact that he is on ?1m+ a year as their union boss?
September 29, 201114 yr just typed a long post about him, but decided to delete it, suffice to say, I think he's a cunt who is good at his job.
September 29, 201114 yr Which is probably why most people think he is a cunt. I used to think he was ok but recently his unbending support of complete and utter wankers with far too much money and lawyers to bail out any indiscretions has begun to grate a little, which may be another reason people think he's a cunt. Or perhaps he just is an absolute cunt of the highest order, all be it an eloquent one, who knows how to market himself. Of the three I'd go for none in particular, but suffice to say, he is a cunt.
September 29, 201114 yr He was a popular player for us in the 60s, and ever since then I've been proud to think that an ex-Bolton player is working in such a high profile job.
September 29, 201114 yr Sure I read once about him being on the embankment with his brother as a kid at the Disaster. They got split up and his mum was scared shitless until they both got home. Saw a brief bit of him last night and was surprised by how neutral he was in his comments about Tevez; given his role I think he was actually wanting to say "I reckon he's a complete tosser, but I can't say so" or words to that effect. Must be difficult to play the polititian all the time, as it undoubtedly alienates some people. He could be a tool though
September 29, 201114 yr I dont mind the fella, his speech for nat was heartfelt, not every footballer is a rich wanker he defends the top players because some of them actually do some good that we dont see, Edited September 29, 201114 yr by superjohnmcginlay

September 29, 201114 yr He's a bolton fan and an ex bolton player.... but he's also a cunt at least he's our cunt
September 29, 201114 yr He probably does a lot of good work looking after lower league players.It's just that it's only the aformentioned greedy millionaires troubles that is newsworthy enough.
September 29, 201114 yr He's a bolton fan and an ex bolton player.... but he's also a cunt at least he's our cunt this is no consolation
September 30, 201114 yr My most vivid memory of Gordon Taylor playing for Bolton was in a match at Burnden just before Franny Lee left. He must have said something insulting to Lee because Lee ran over and grabbed him by the throat. I'm sure he would have strangled Taylor if Brian Bromley hadn't dragged them apart.
