A minutes silence for the legend before kick off tomorrow, followed by a minutes applause in the 72nd minute. I've no doubt all Gasheads whether they saw Stuart play or not will show their appreciation for the great man.

“One Stuart Taylor” booming out from the Thatchers End will be just about right.

For such a big man Stuart went about defending in a quiet unassuming way ,didn't result to the rough stuff just got on with it and was in fact quite a cultured defender for a man of his stature, an early version of a Rio Ferdinand! Mr dependable and can never remember him getting angry ,perhaps he left that to Larry Lloyd, big surprise to me that Larry got the big transfer and not Stuart, Great service to Rovers and worthy of a great send off on Saturday, thank you Stuart, God bless you and your family.

Any chance the title could be edited to show the correct spelling of "Stuart"?

I'll be there today if only to pay tribute to a lovely man, underrated player who would be worth a fortune in today's market.

Its very late but very welcome I always liked Stuart he will be missed by many of us old Gasheads, I understand there was some issue with being able to have every immediate family member present, on the same day that coincided with a home fixture. I’m sure the tributes will be more than fitting to such a great man & Rovers hero.

I remember a period when he was used at corners at the front post. An accurate corner was sent over to him to head on to someone crashing in behind him. At the time, for a while, it seemed to work an absolute treat. Great Club Servant, Great Defender and a Very Decent Man....RIP

Stuart Taylor was one of my favorite players. Good tribute at the match but could not understand why the match announcer kept referring to him as "Taylor" and not Stuart or Stuart Taylor. Made him sound remote as opposed to a much loved son of the Gas.
