ahamaad Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 If anybody votes for anyone but Taylor they are mad.

blandy Posted July 30, 2005 Moderator Share Posted July 30, 2005 Obviously Ian Taylor, but Andy Townsend wasa very good player, who came into his own once Rico went, and Rico himself did a fine job, in a Gavin McCann type way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSufferingVilla Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Andy Townsend was a great player and a superb leader! I don't know how you can say he was average. Sure Ian Taylor always played his heart out but Townsend was in a different league. we won 2 league cups the second under his captancy and he also captained Ireland at the 94 World Cup. Sure he's a rocket polisher as a pundit but don't forget the success we had with him controlling the midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted July 30, 2005 Moderator Share Posted July 30, 2005 I think he's pretty good as a telly "pundit" He's got his head screwed on, seems pretty intelligent and communicates well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irishmangiant Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Taylor. I agree that Andy Townsend was a bit of a legend. Especially over here. Although you have to give in for the love we show to Ian Taylor. He'll always be classed as a Villan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 Taylor might have been a Villa boy, but Andy Townsend was a better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
