All Hail Steven Taylor

Absolutely. Taylor is allowing others to focus on their on job. Obviously it's not just him, same can be said for Kopa, Rudan etc, but he has allowed durante to rediscover his form which I'm really pleased about. Hes also incredibly charismatic and I think it's criminal that more of Wellington haven't gone to watch us this season. He's genuinely entertaining as well as a good footballer. 

I think Durante is a lot happier now that he has the freedom to play the ball a bit. He always struck me as a defender who wanted to carry the ball forward into the midfield but was never able to cos he couldnt trust his other defenders to cover him. Now with Taylor there he is boming forward, beating players and setting up attacks from deep.

Also can do it to add something to the game, or tactically, rather than as a last gasp to lift a flagging team.

Seems he has been a naughty boy according to The Sun. Hope this doesn't affect his on field performances.

Link??

He might have needed to let some steam off after the Adelaide game, and get himself ready against WSW.

For those who don't want to give The S*n any more clicks - long story short, allegedly cheated on a long-distance girlfriend while in Welly, and is bad in bed

A nIx player involved in a tabloid cheating article. 

On the positive side good exposure for the club 

find a footballer that has not shagged other women. Slow news day obviously

I would guess Rhyan Grant.

It’s the sun. Are we gonna trust literally anything that they say?

obviously doesn't have much time for kiwi chicks

How about we get this thread back on track to Taylor, football and the Nix?

I regret posting the link so I think I'll delete it.

Don't see issue talking about it, it's something that happened to Steven Taylor and this is a Steven Taylor thread. Hope it doesn't affect his focus going into the next few games

'long pins' lol what a guy. 

Long distant relationships never work out. 

Just needs a thread title change to Some Hail.. or Most Hail..

Anyone from or supporting Liverpool can tell you that you NEVER EVER repost the S*n

Front splash page of nzherald right now...

I hadn't realised he wasn't single, presumed he was given he'd moved all the way here. Oh well, it's not really news. Tabloid rubbish.

You'd hope the lads are calling him Long Pins now.

Chant for the next match?

She was a long pinned woman in a black dress....

is she really going out with him?

Is he really gonna text long pins tonight?

Night of the long pins..

Do u like long pins a colada..and making luv @ midnight.

Suspect it is no ones business except for Steven.  

I dare say he will be ribbed a bit by the rest at training and then it will all die a natural death. 

After all, The Sun is such a reliable source of information

If anything, it'll make for excellent banter in the changing rooms

"Morning long pins, what's miss perfect bum doing? Would love to be feeling ur unreal body."

"We have total faith that Mark will reddress the situation appropriately." David Dome

OH LONG PINS WE LOVE YOU

Hardly the first time the nix have been accused of being a bit rubbish away from home.

looks to have a pretty impressive deck

We wanted someone that was a star in the tabloids to bring in casual fans, looks like we got one.

"We had sex everywhere"...

Possible that he only nicknamed 'the other girl' long pins because she's particularly security conscious with her credit cards.

Next time he really needs to invite these girlfriends into the zone rather then just his apartment.

1-0 with 10 minutes to go would be a marketers dream

Can we all please stop being creeps. Thanks.

Honestly, I'm much more disappointed in the player who hauled off and booted an opponent and got himself a multi-match suspension, than the one who may or may not have shagged around.
