kdncfc 0 Posted November 30, 2007 I have just listened to that interview on radio norfolk and he just says that we''ll see what happens next week, at no stage does he say he is going back when his loan expires.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted December 1, 2007 Taylor has been good and it would be great to extend his loan - certainly until 1 Jan - but I did wonder at the time why we only had him until 8 December when most loans being done run to 1 January.....perhaps he never wanted to stay into the Christmas period? I guess we''ll have to wait and see - but a good strong c/b who gets forward effectively for set pieces is still needed in the long term.To be fair, one of the reasons he was brought in was because Doc was out injured, so maybe now that he is fit the pressure is less (remember, in all the shouting about Doc being crap, he had done little wrong this season before his injury); who knows, with GR as the boss Doc might return to his best (Spuds fans reckon before he broke his leg he was excellent for them).

lucky green trainers 0 Posted December 3, 2007 [quote user="jas the barclay king"]agreed! i know a couple of spurs fans and Gary doherty is a bit of a cult hero down there..jas :)[/quote]i know a few city fans who reckon he''s just a cult down here!!!joking aside - we all know and appreciate that doc was in better form prior to his injury - but having been brought up with the likes of bruce etc. we all know that the doc - or shacks come to that - are not the answer to our central defense. taylor plays like a goodun - becuase he is proactive, he reads the game well and keeps attackers shackelled. unfortunately, imo - both the doc and shacks are reactive defenders - in other words, attackers can often get the better of them by making the first move. i was hopin city would get a couple of good centre-halfs in, like taylor - preseason, with the doc let go and shacks as a bencher, but none came. i''m not convinced by the doc, or shacks alot of the time. seeing taylor, has only reinforced this belief.we''re in the crud - because of a ''little naarrwich'' mentality - where we cling to the hope that some gambles will come off and that players who ideally shouldn''t be playing for city are virtually first choices because of our small squad. doing on the cheap hasn''t paid off - in fact it could lumber us with 3rd tier footy, but hopefully not if roeder has his way.roeder has shown, that until we get good players in - we won''t progress. i don''t doubt the doc''s honesty - or his commitment to the cause - its nothing personal, i don''t know the bloke - but give me taylor anyday, simple as. he looks like the type of player we need in the club to take us forward.

Plymouth Canary 0 Posted December 3, 2007 I was at the Stoke match this weekend, It is very clear he is the weak link in a Norwich side whichever position he plays. Taylor is faster, stronger, reads the game better, and most importantly doesnt panic/make stupid errors when under pressure. His distribution is better as well, whenever the ball approached doherty at the weekend everyone knew exactly what was going to happen - either a h00f or the oppositon player beating him to the ball.If taylors loan cant be extended, then hes a good example of the kind of person we need to bring in to fil the CB position.

Green and Yellow 0 Posted December 3, 2007 Remember who pulls the strings. It is the agent so maybe Taylor''s agent is only doing his job by making sure his gets the best deal for him. Who can argue with that . If you remember Huckerby was in the same situation when he moved here on a permanent move after a loan period. Agents are only doing their job. That is what they are paid to do by those they represent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blahblahblah 2 Posted December 4, 2007 [quote]You know. Give up easy. Weak.[/quote]Cheap shot Bly. It''s between Taylor and McCleish as to where his future lies, he is contracted to their club, and has expressed an interest in going back. It could be by January that McCleish decides has no use for him, but you''ve got to give the lad a month to prove himself there before he considers his options. It could be that we''re in the box seat for him by the end of Jan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

barclay_canary 0 Posted December 4, 2007 nothing is done on the taylor matter, Roeder wants him and hes made that clear. who knows what is going on as we debate this issue, we could be there tonight and its announced hes staying, or even the sheff utd game on saturday, but i think if he does return to brum, then we are done for, Doherty is a useless bag of crap and a bloody liability, i still say he cost us against stoke when he filled in for Otsemobor. we need taylor here and we need the board to know about it. lets make that clear from the stands tonight against Plymouth. 3-1 i say to city.

Icecream Snow 761 Posted December 4, 2007 I think it speaks volumes that one of Bruce''s first acts was to get himself a new central defensive partnership after getting promoted, with Ridgewell/Djorou being first choice and Taylor/Jaidi being sent to the reserves. As a Brum supporting colleague admitted, Taylor''s too good for the Championship, but not good enough for the Premiership.After beating Spurs in his first game, I think it''s unlikely that McCleish will rock the boat, and their biggest problem is a lack of cutting edge upfront, their defence seems ok.

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted December 4, 2007 If Taylor does leave and not return he will go with my thanks and appreciation. As a player he has been the keystone of our revival and deserves a decent send off on Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 274 Posted December 4, 2007 LGT I agree he looked less than happy at coming off - but I though he was poor today so I do think it is mind games by roedaer - telling him that if he thinks he is good enough for the premier league then he will have to perform much more consistently and against better players than the plymouth strikers.Taylor will start again on sat though.
