Great achievement!!! Dont get too wound up by the "we dont want the welsh in our league" lot!! I have a soft spot for Swansea City!! great football and passionate fans!!! Finally, Newcastle are apparently closing in on Neil Taylor for £1m, what can you tell us about him??? Cheers and Good Luck for Next Season!!!
Can't see it to be honest, he has 2 years left on his contract, the rumour has come from a sunday mirror hack who also says half our team is leaving and the swans are in meltdown. Large pinch of salt needed unless you guys come in with a multi million pound bid, which I can't see as you don't need another bench warmer on your books I think.
Very good player, solid in defense and goes forward a little. Lost it in the Playoff semi when got sent off. Don't think he's ready to go yet though
As Jager says, really can´t see this one. A) It´s from the Mirror, hardly a bastion of truth and investigative journalism, and secondly, just look at that journos twitter account! Every other word is "confirmed" or "nailed on". How can you be proud of your work when you´re wrong as much as that guy is!?
Can't see it happening. Maybe the mirror really said was swansea in for STEPHEN Taylor for a million. Thanks for the kind words great to be with the big boys. Nice too see The Toon Army again.......... As for Neil Taylor very good talent for the future.
Cheers for the replies. The report said he has a £1m release, aybe that was the inspiration for the pape talk. Thanks again!!!
I was shocked when I read this on the News site that was recommended a couple of articles back but as has been said above, it appears to come from some drunk sunday mirror hack who has said it was a wind up on twitter. He also said that Williams is going to QPR for £1 million and that Matt Mills is coming to us from Reading for £3 million. I hope one of them is correct and not the story on Taylor and Williams.
a complete zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz......... the journo in question needs his head read. Considering he is supposed to be a professional, he lowers himself to being just a WUM (he states clearly after a while he has got tired of winding Swansea fans up). Backroom hack he will remain at best, whereas we will keep on flying !!!!
Well he brings down his paper to a grubby level, oh wait they are already there, is it possible the bog paper he writes for can get any lower ?
Latest information on Taylor http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12876_6966953,00.html I do hope nothing comes of this!!!
nope, still think its lazy journalism from sky sports....not followed it up, just seen it written by the other guy
All looks a lot like lazy journalism to me. No sources included in either the Mirror or Sky story. They are probably feeding off each other due to the twitter rumour started by the hack from the redtop. Here are the fact as we know them.. Swansea paid Wrexham around £150,000 compensation because he had gone though their youth development programme. We Paid Wrexham an additional £50,000 when we got promoted. Everything else is pure speculation.
Well I'm staring to get worried. There's speculation that Liverpool are in £8m for Enrique and Newcastle are looking for a suitable LB replacement I hope the rumours that we're in for Mills is right Never listen to Zeus' messenger
please log in to view this image Nice try though, Taylor will be going nowhere!.............. please log in to view this image
im not convinced he is up to premiership football at the moment. lots of potential and tirelss worker but way of end product for me at the moment. not alswys confident with ball to feet which is worrying in way we play, he is great in defence though and very quick. i would be amazed if newcastle are in for him and just cant see it happening. put it this way if he was at another team i wouldnt want to pay 1 million for him
it is all total speculation and of no substance or should i say total BO**Ox. he aint going aywhere and Neither is Ash. both will be here next season playing a significant part in us staying in the English and Welsh Premier leaugue.
