Transfer Talk - 2018/19 Season

No Cairan

Not sure if he was suggesting him as a new target tho, its definitely Steven Taylor that PROAK was referring too. 

Looking on the Posh forums, someone posted that Steven Taylor's apartment is up for rent again & someone replied the rumour was he was off to NZ.

Probably one of us :-)

Rumors generating proof substantiating rumors and so on

sorry got my A and I the wrong way around.

I'm suggesting he is a player the Nix are looking at currently.

And his TV is for sale on PoshMe

Had a look at the net re: Taylor. 

Had a good season with The Posh until the end when his form dipped, (may have have something to do with that charming fellow Evans becoming manager).

Was on a big wage which may have been one of the reasons he was let go. Has had pretty much every injury going at some point in his career but a very capable, solid player. 

Always like London Road but Peterboro is a sharkhole, (apart from some close by epic bronze-age archaeology), If I had the choice I'd move over here. 

Also he was in the squad Newcastle squad that came over wasn't he? 

That is both hilarious and depressing at the same time.

NZF in a nutshell really

Steven Taylor's career has been constantly hampered by injury. He's a decent enough player, but he's incredibly slow. I'd much prefer Ryan because at least then we could utilise the long throw. 

Fun fact - Steven Taylor went to High School with my cousin in Whitley Bay.

First player signing to be announced at 3pm today

He's probably been in Welly since mid-afternoon Saturday and decided 'fudge this I'm out'

No one left at NZF HQ to turn the fax on?

I just checked Steven Taylor's record last season, more to see if injuries have been an issue, and he played 51 games with 50 being full 90mins. 

Why the delay - flight didn't get in?

How many games in the premiership did he play, 150+?

Or perhaps medical had to be delayed / threw up some interesting questions?

200+

But it sounds like we're still signing him?

"Hey mate, could you get that chronic injury problem fixed by tomorrow. Cheers"

50 games in a season last year... that can't be easy on the body. Perhaps its a reason to come here, he thinks he can keep playing longer and look after the body more?

Will be a great signing though - do we go to a back 3, or does Durante drop to the bench. Him and Taylor might be too slow a combo perhaps, although to be fair to Taylor, his pace can be too much of an issue otherwise he would have never played so many games in the top flight for so long.

Feverish sign a 1 year deal with the Wellington Phoenix !!

You would think Taylor and Fox with TAHW, Doyle and Dura as cover.

Assuming it's not the Pole or someone completely different.

Jakub Rzeźniczak has told me in an email it's not him.

Cheers Andy. 

Steven Taylor has been sighted in Wellington today...

That's a Grand Final defense on paper to be honest. Perth still have the best defense in the league but ours is certainly nothing to be sniffed at

Haha thanks, don't think my 0% hit rate will improve either

Does anyone else think there may be some information about players coming off contract announced tomorrow? (Mullen, Patterson and the like)

They are all gone.

Yes but hasn't actually been published that they have. Hopefully reporters will ask and publish that information

I'd assume they are gone.

I'm assuming they have all gone as well, but asked Voerman and Rollo to try confirm with the club that Rufer, Galloway, Italiano, Rogerson, Mullen, McGarry and Patterson have all gone.

It's like when you play fifa and all the off contract players leave if you don't re-sign them. that happens in real life too.

I thought Mullen was worth holding onto, personally. Thought he gave his all everytime he played, just unfortunate with injury. 

The rest of them; meh.

Galloway gone?
