theboyangel Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Saturday's game will begin in a sombre mood as he managed both clubs. Hopefully the game will be played in the right spirit and Taylor rightfully honoured. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post villanmac Posted January 12, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2017 A great football man and always there for the villa. One of my abiding memories is the end of season lap of honour at the end of his 2nd reign when some of our fans booed him during his end of season speech, hated it then and it has always left a bad taste in my mouth to this day. Proper Villa legend who never deserved to be treated like that. RIP. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Really saddened to hear. Ironically, when he first became our manager the club was in a not to dissimilar predicament to that of today. If our current manager does half the job Graham did in turning things around at least the future will be bright. RIP Graham and thank you for the memories.

NeilS Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 RIP I will always think very highly of the man, he did an amazing job in his first stint and turned around a situation not too disimilar to where we were last season, and had us runners up within a few seasons.

Made In Aston Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 One of the best managers villa had. Always spoke sense and was there when we needed him. I'll never forget how close he brought us to winning the top flight title and how he turned the club around when we were in a mess. R. I.

villianusa Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I got on my computer this morning hoping to see we had signed someone and then I saw this news. Puts things into perspective. What he did for the club in his first stint was amazing, some of the best times for me as a supporter. My prayers are with your family.
