He's either gone or going. Otherwise he would have signed for us. It's as simple as that. Shows a lack of respect.lets get someone in who wants to wear the shirt. Rant over. Kind of agree with you. It's clear he wants a move and we are his 2nd choice and back up option.The rumoured £7k per week we have offered him is a decent wedge for someone that I'm sure was on little over £500 per week a few season ago. I will always be grateful for Taylor's efforts these past 2 seasons and would love him to stay but this is starting to leave a bad taste in the mouth and shouldn't have dragged on this far.

Totally agree if he is staying he will get a bit of stick for stringing us along . I hope he stays because he will do a a great job for us in league 1 and he needs another season before he steps up, stay put Matty and you will be worth a bloody fortune by Christmas!!

Some Gasheads have been listening to many fairy stories, he has been offered less than half of that.

Some Gasheads have been listening to many fairy stories, he has been offered less than half of that. The difference in salary between the Premier League and lower leagues is very big. In the Championship the average salary is between £4.000 and £5.000 a week. The top players in the Championship earn around £8.000 to £9.000 a week. The average salary in League One is between £1.700 and £2.500, and in League Two it’s between £1.300 and £1.500.

Just posting what I've read.Im not saying I believe it, but wasnt it made aware that Lambert was on £5-7k per week in his last contract with us? I know it was for a few months,but our new chairman came out and said the other week that our contract offer to Matty would make him the highest earner in Rovers history so unless you can confirm that it is half of £7k per week I don't think it behond the possibly that we have offered him near that figure given our new owners desires.

Think SH actually said MT would be the best paid player at the club (now) & DC will be the best paid manager ever, that may or may not mean MT was offered more than Lambert was in his last season, which I thought was "only" £5K p.w anyway?

Paying him £7000 would mean going back on our phillosphy of no longer being a club that pays silly money. I wouldnt pay him that even Lambert was only on £5000.
The rest of the squad will be lucky to be on £1000-1500 and as such it will not be a good thing imo.

The rest of the squad will be lucky to be on £1000-1500 and as such it will not be a good thing imo. fairly simple Id say. He has his price and we should be looking at that and saying what can we get elsewhere for that amount. Can we get someone who is proven at this level etc. As much as I appreciate MT and his contribution, we should do well to remember he has never scored a goal in league one to date.

No way would we be offering 7k per week. We've offered around 3.5k max.

Thats correct.I got the statements mixed up.I'd pay Matty £4k a week myself.

He's not been offered 7K a week lol. I would rather he left than we offered that kinda money.
2K with bonuses for goals and wins, taking it up to a possible 3.5K/week.

Problem is to get a proven 20 goal a season striker to replace MT could well involve a transfer fee plus decent wages. Don't forget Vardy cost Leicester £1m, Swindon want £500K for thier striker, Rolfe would probably cost similar money.

The one Matty Taylor doing the business at the moment is the young left-arm seam bowler at Gloucestershire. Bowling beautifully in the shorter game and one Matty Taylor who definitely looks as if he's got a career at a higher level!
