Blandford saint Posted 27 April, 2010 Share Posted 27 April, 2010 Maik Taylor is well past his best now, and I've seen him make more howlers than Kelv has during the last couple of seasons. He's been really excellent this year and I can't understand why some suppporters have such a vindictive attitude towards him. They are quite happy to compare our League One players with other League One players, except KD, who they expect to be Premiership standard for some reason.

OldNick Posted 27 April, 2010 Share Posted 27 April, 2010 I thought Maik was excellent, and a Saints fan to boot. One day, perhaps. Yep he was said to be a saints fan. I think I recall he was South african ??? and saw us win the FA cup and so supported us due to that. A Souness purchase I think, I personally wish he'd gone through and bought Friedel that was reported he was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brought up in North Hampshire I believe (presumably near Aldershot or Tidworth) and we signed him from Farnborough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
