Northampton 0 Wanderers 1

[Marc505]

Excellent day and result - wish we could start scoring some goals right in front of our travelling support like, but can't complain!

[frank_spencer]

He's hasn't though has he, was dropped and got back when spearing got injured. As a general rule we've achieved better results when he's not played.

He's played 4 first team games since Oxford, we won 3 and he scored the winning goal in one of them.

I really can't see the hatred directed towards him, especially this season.

He's a solid enough squad player who granted wouldn't get in a first choice 11 with Spearing, Davies, Vela being the probable midfield 3 imo

[onlyoneawalker]

The clubs moved on great strides and many a player Madine spearing wheater etc have shown what they can do in a confident team but trotter is still fucking shite imo

He probably is 7th choice for me in that midfield 3, but I still don't see him as shite

He played in the cup against a lower league team. A game that we didn't perform overly well in.

He played against Cheltenham.

He started against Peterborough.

Since oxford he's hardly played league games and we've been significantly better.

Why is it hatred because folk think he's shite?

Wish him well- preferably at another club.

Big shout out to Peter Rabbit the limited edition coin. Who has been to 10 games now and seen 10 wins. The only 2 he has missed are Cheltenham and Peterborough????

[DIPS]

Thanking you Burnden.

[GeorgeOghani'sIroningBoard]

Whilst folk slag off Vela, a moderate player with no pretentions, you only have to look at Northampton so recall a really shite player in the Wanderers shirt. Matt Taylor has made a career out of a screamer every 100 games with 99 poor games in between, most with zero effort. Journeyman shithouse always glad to take some mug team's money.

[Zico]

23 screamers in 123 games isn't bad

 

He wasnt really shite for us

 

Or a journeyman

 

We were his 3rd club

And Just screamers?

 

He worked his bollocks off down the left and we missed him when he left

 

Sometimes the mind boggles

He was one of their better players yesterday and provided some good deliveries to which their front men did not take advantage of

 

His time with us was hit and miss and mostly miss IMO (And I used to go those days home and away) 

[frank_spencer]

Matt Taylor was a brill player for us.

I'm sure there was a stand that he was involved in the vast majority of our goals during his time here.

[Marc505]

I liked Matt Taylor for us. Underappreciated.

[kent_white]

Yeah - another vote for Taylor here. We all see a different game I guess.

[SalfordOriginal]

Another plus for me, mainly for his 2 goals late on away at Stoke

[Zico]

I'll say by the end of his last season with us he was past his PL best, got slow and chunky, think he'd had glandular fever or something but till then he was a good un

 

Maybe one of megson's best signings

 

Along with Muamba

 

And Klasnic

[bolton va va]

No problem with Matt Taylor from me, a good steady team player & i'll always remember the dipping, spinning , swerving free kick he scored from around 60 yards out at West Ham.  I didn't actually realise he was playing yesterday. 

[Biggish Dave]

I was never Taylor's biggest fan but didn't dislike either. Thought he was better than average but nothing special.

[darrener]

Taylor and hoskins whipped some great balls into the box second half, I liked Taylor and he got a decent reception from the travelling fans

[Naytch]

I liked Taylor for us. Decent player

[HomerJay]

Football needs more Matt Taylors

[darrener]

I liked him even more when he smacked that shot over the bar in the last minutes

[MalcolmW]

Football needs more Matt Taylors

 

I presume you are making the point that there are 3, plus another in the USA, plus 3 cricketers and a rugby player, etc.

 

Also I remember listening to a commentary on a Tranmere v Wolves Friday night match where the crowd were singing "there's only one Scott Taylor" when in fact there was one on each team.
