    Would be pleased with Taylor IF he is allowed to bring his own staff and set up the way he wants it. 
    100% not force euell or the goalkeeper coach on them!

    This is the key thing for me whoever we appoint. Need a clean break I feel the players have been far to comfy and need a winning attitude instilled in them on the training ground and the pitch.

    That should always be the case.  Always.

    Totally agree. Can hit the ground running then rather than have to piss about.

    If you are reading this Tommy this is what fans are saying 200 miles away.

    "Their last two appointments have been terrible - the new(ish) owner needs to get the next one right or his credibility will go down the toilet".

    You normally also employ a manager because he has, or you think he can, actually do something.  Why not either replicate the conditions of his success or give him the tools he thinks he needs.

    No manager, or coach, is an expert in every aspect of the job.  You need the right mix.

    I told the Lass about Taylor, her comment was "I don't care who is manager as Sandgaard will f==k it up" - she could be right

    Taylor would be a good shout.  Precedent is Andy Nelson, left a club newly promoted into our division, made a few astute signings and got some underperformers to raise their games.  But Nelson's inherited a real goalscorer, albeit very raw (Killer).  Can Chuks be that player - he's got 20 goals in him next season IF...oh you know the if...

    He’d do wonders for our midfield

    Matt Taylor on Exeter’s season ^
    He can certainly talk 😊

    Re Matt Taylor -
    Exeter are a lower L1/top L2 team.
    The fact that it took Taylor 4 years to get Exeter promoted in 2nd place, isn't a massive plus for me.
    The fact that he's probably a really nice bloke, isn't a massive plus for me, so was JJ.
    The fact that he's not managed above L2 is a negative for me.
    The fact that he switched from goalie to outfield at age 23, doesn't really clinch it for me that he's a wonderfully versatile manager/coach. To be blunt, it is not relevant.

    I'm not unhappy if it's Taylor, but I know the likes of Warburton have the better CV.
    May not be logical but I’m more excited by Taylor for some reason. Perhaps because Warburton has struggled (very) recently, whereas Taylor sounds like a young manager on the way up.
    I think I’d be happy with either.

    Warburton took QPR from lower mid table to 3rd by Xmas.
    He couldn't maintain it, when he lost half the team to injuries.

    Exeter fans comments saying TS appears to be a "chancer"

    They're definitely not grudging him a move to Charlton if he comes though. Fair play to them

    Exeter fans also talking about a double promotion 😂

    Was it that many injuries, I didn’t realise. I just knew he was on his sixth choice keeper or something. 
    Ok, so either sound good, but Taylor is arguably a slightly bigger gamble (but more likely to be happy to join us).

    Yeah.
    It looks like Matt Taylor got his degree at Bath.
    Taylor certainly played representative University football, as well as football at all sorts of levels.
    Taylor is interesting in as much as he doesn’t have a conventional CV.
    Easy to like from the outside, but personally I would like the acquisition of points most of all whoever is in charge.

    He'd be fine for me, just get it done and bring some players through the door that the nect manager actually wants.

    I'd be more than happy with Taylor. Young ambitious manager with promotion on CV - sounds okay to me.
    My thoughts exactly, we can all over complicate the pros and cons but what you’ve said here summarises it for me.

    Just think also what it would mean to Taylor, without tooting our own horns, I would say a manager who’s been slogging it away for 4 years at that shitty ground in carrot crunching land would dream of a shot at our place.  You can see him pouring his heart and soul into it, he played the game in a similar fashion.

    Exeter under Taylor, 9th,5th,9th and then promotion. So not hugely successful bar this season.

    Would rather get Warburton

    I Think most of us would "rather have Warburton" ,but he is clearly aiming a lot higher than us, Taylor has done a good job at Exeter, and has just gained a promotion with them, he would be a good choice in my opinion..
