He was everything good about football, a man whose love for the game was clear to anyone that saw him, a man of infectious energy and positivity with a massive talent for organisation and the determination to carry that through, someone who could see what was good in a player and make it fit his team or could make his team fit what was good in a player, and above all that, a genuinely nice man with time for everyone. He loved the game and it loved him back. I'm proud that we at Aston Villa were one of those that got to see all of those qualities. The game is a little less without him.
RIP Graham Taylor.
