Everybody is criticising our lack of long term plan and profile of signing.

 

Then they want us to sign a 30 something striker that’s had most success a division lower, last scored two years ago and refused to play for a previous club.

 

Sounds perfect!

Don’t see the harm in a short term deal.

Blimey.  Didn’t realise he had fallen out of favour.  
 

He certainly enjoyed scoring against us.  I think he has something like 8 goals against us. 
 

Although his last appearance at Home Park was memorable.  We were winning 3-2 (or maybe 4-2).  He had “won” a penalty which would secure him a hat trick.  
 

He Celebrated in front of our fans…and then missed the penalty.  🤣🤣🤣🤣.  It was one of those where he takes a single step before shooting. 
 

A fit focused Taylor would be good at this level.  I just get the feeling he is a bit of a ******** though.

Looks like we dodged a bullet, Lyle Taylor making friends at Cambridge after his 3 goals in 23 appearances...

Still looks prolific compared with Ashley Fletcher though...

He’s got a point though, football fans dish out the worst abuse at times yet get wholly offended when players give it back. I’m not advocating players falling out with their own fans, it’s never going to end well for the player, but don’t understand how offended some fans get by it.

Anyone else read ‘scummy man’ and think: 

 

“And what a scummy man
Just give him half a chance
I bet he'll rob you if he can
I can see it in his eyes
Yeah that he's got a driving ban
Amongst some other offences”

wasn't he released by Wycombe in January prior to signing for Cambridge? 

 

 

 

 

 

Hadn't noticed that, yes 9 of those appearances (no goals) came before he was released by Wycombe.

 

What a signing he'd have been for us, an Ashley Fletcher from Wish with the attitude of Jay Bothroyd.
