FLY2 10,108 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Graham Taylor has died today aged 72. No age at all really. RIP. He picked some great England sides, despite the gutter press advocating more London based players. At least he gave many Forest players their chances. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Merthyr Imp 729 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Very sad news, have so many good memories of him as a player and manager. As for Forest players, Tony Woodcock's career only took off after he went on loan to Lincoln! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted January 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 And when he was paired with the vastly underrated Peter Withe, for a cup game at Mansfield if my memory serves me correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

radfordred 6,284 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Been listening the Graham Taylor tributes on BBC5LIVE before the Watford game MOTD should be worth a watch tonight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Merthyr Imp 729 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 There should also be something on next Tuesday night's live FA Cup replay on BBC1 - Lincoln v Ipswich. And in case anyone forgets he had an existence before Watford this is worth a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ct4mpavKRQ Obviously it's mainly of interest to those who remember the times and the players he's talking about, but there's a lot of good stuff, and he does talk about Tony Woodcock, ex-Notts County Terry Cooper and ex-Mansfield Sam Ellis.
