It’s been a bit surreal more than anything but I’m glad it’s done.
I agonised over this one all day and it wasn’t until I saw the picture of him with the red shirt that I realised that I’ve been trying to like Taylor for more than just his goals for a long time. He’s scored some great ones, and plenty of them, but that’s all it will ever be now. He was here because we were the best option for him 2014-15, he was here because we were the best option for him in 2015-16, he was here for half a season in 2016-17 and now he’s there for the second half because he feels that’s the best option for him. For Matty Taylor, Matty Taylor will always come first and that’s ok. Hand on heart I can’t say I wouldn’t do something comparable if I was in his situation, so I can’t hold it against him.
No one ever got excited for a Matty Taylor post match interview and I don’t think he was ever really excited about playing for Bristol Rovers. We don’t know what’s around the corner and time will tell whether or not we miss his goals, but I don’t think we’ll miss him much. He’s a statistic now, nothing more.
Good luck to him I say, he’ll certainly need it.
