Quote: TheButcher "They only see it from their point of view. Here's some examples from said fans...
'Why would he ever want to leave Wigan? Is he mad?'
'He'll fade into obscurity now...'
'He can't possibly fulfill his potential now he's not at Wigan.'
'He'll just sulk at Salford now.'
'He'll still be homesick down the road.'
'This sale has really derailed his chances of bringing together Israel and Palestine.'
etc etc
...
I fail to see who's shafted here.'"
and there's more ..
Quote: TheButcher ""joined the less professional environments of Salford and Hull."
"definitely expect him to fade back into obscurity playing for Salford and later Hull FC"
"Taylor will struggle getting into the England team playing for a club ( Hull FC ) that may be in the second division when he joins them"
"Career suicide"
"His form was appalling for major parts of last year and now he's ended up having to sign for Salford"
"It may be easier for him to stand out in a poor team"
"presumably is that he'll carry on sulking, only now on Salford's time rather than ours."'"
I think when it comes to feeling shafted by Wigan , I've a guess Parramatta would be in that queue before us , ( Paid up for Mossop, Paid to fix both his shoulders up , plays three games then walks straight back to pieland.)
after Phil Bailey & Feka's 1st season , if Taylor makes it onto the pitch and lasts more than 10 minutes a spell he'll be classed as one of Salford better signings from our beloved neighbours
