Hell I've read he's demanding the FA to take action over Suarezs' refusal. Is he really the head of the PFA?

Beggars belief it does.

Beggars belief it does.

Here's his comments from a couple of months ago regarding the Blatter handshake comments

Gordon Taylor -

'Racism is divisive and for him to say the player on the receiving end should forget about it at the end of the game and shake hands...we are going backwards... it is not good enough, it's embarrassing.

God help if Suarez ever need's the PFA's help for anything.

Which is odd given what a nasally, whining voice it is.

he looks, and sounds, like he's been on the pop for too long. probably with a certain hard shoulder shitting tramp. every liverpool player should refuse to pay into the pfa whilst he is in charge.

Suarez did require the PFA's help a few months ago, but it seems they were not willing to offer it.

Given the ridiculous defences they have offered of players/incidents in the past, their stance on this has been remarkable

That'd be professional footballers association, plural? Not who GT decides to assist? Don't imagine many other union leaders showing such lack of solidarity with its members in public, whether they agree with their behaviour or not.

Made me laugh when Sky dragged him out yet again on Saturday evening. Fuck off back to your knitting you silly aul' fart.

gordon taylor is a c*nt of the highest order.

he should never have been shown to be taking sides.

the only reason he is still in this job is because the whole of the FA/PFA are as corrupt as the other

scatman · « **Reply #52 on:** February 13, 2012, 11:34:04 am »

he needs a slap, a big slap with a big fish, might sort him out

81a · « **Reply #53 on:** February 13, 2012, 01:27:52 pm »

Compare his comments to somone who shot a kid with an air rifle and his comments regarding the handshake on Saturday.

“I like looking after players but I find I am always on the back foot. It doesn’t help when you see what Ashley did having an airgun. That’s an accident waiting to happen. Ashley has made mistakes, like we all do, but I felt he’s becoming a lot more mature on the field.

“He’s an excellent full-back. It’s not fair to say to [Chelsea manager] Carlo Ancelotti, ‘Will you be sacking him or leaving him out of the team?’ Excuse me! Accidents happen.

But at least he's helping to keep our young footballers on the straight and narrow.

“I don’t want footballers to think being a celebrity is more important than your quality as a human being. That’s why we spend money with the British School of Motoring; we say to players the car is a dangerous weapon, please be careful.”

This despite the fact he was able to get off on a technicality after a car he was driving , registered to the PFA offices in Manchester, was caught by a speed camera doing 36mph on 25 November 2010, and then caught travelling at 43mph on 11 December 2010, both at Osbaldeston, near Blackburn in Lancashire.

Surprisingly just had an email back from this lovely man. His email address comes through as "Gordon Taylor OBE." A true man of the people.

The problem now is if say some of the players fucked this prick and his boys club off, it would start the circus all over again with constant bollox from the media.

Red_Isle_Chap · « **Reply #61 on:** February 13, 2012, 09:36:49 pm »

Really needs removing from his post. Preferably to be taken out back and put out of our misery. It's the only humane thing to do.

Didn't he get 700k from the NOTW for having his phone hacked? That's ten times as much as some of these celebs got. Anyone know why he got so much.

Highest paid union official in the World. Fact

No surprise to see him hitch his mercenary arse to the racism debate....like he's got a fuckin clue about it

Would love to see the sanctimonious prick do a live head to head interview with John Barnes

would be shown up as the opportunistic imposter that he is

He had a bit more leverage than others.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2011/sep/08/phone-hacking-gordon-taylor

Lawyers for Gordon Taylor said he wanted to be "vindicated or made rich" in negotiations over his controversial £700,000 phone-hacking settlement, according to the News of the World's lawyers.
Taylor, the head of the Professional Footballers' Association, had got hold of a highly damaging internal email that proved phone hacking at the tabloid was not confined to "one rogue reporter".

Big Red Richie · « **Reply #74 on:** February 14, 2012, 09:50:17 pm »

I wondered why he's popping up all over the place, the last couple of weeks.

He now thinks he's untouchable. Fireproof. The f*cking ego of it.

kasperoff · « **Reply #75 on:** February 14, 2012, 10:10:03 pm »

Add him to the list of individuals who have made complete fools of themselves over this whole sordid episode. Anyone with an axe to grind with Liverpool have come out and stick the boot in good and hard. Seemingly having free reign to say what ever the fuck they like, despite what they have said and done in their past, or having any concreate evidence.

It's akin to bullying, really. It's fucking disgraceful.

Regi · « **Reply #76 on:** February 14, 2012, 10:44:21 pm »

A despicable fucker.
His eagerness to put the boot in, to have his opinion aired, to dominate the column inches over this affair has been sickening.
I had the misfortune to catch 5 minutes of his nonsense on 5 Live's Nolan Show on Saturday night while in a taxi and I nearly exploded.
'Liverpool haven't been open to intervention by me... '
Wonder why you two-faced horrible shitehawk.
The way he uses that whimpering voice to give the impression of honesty and integrity would almost make your teeth hurt.
Should honestly be banned from ever entering Anfield again.

Gordon Taylor on Rascism;

With Stuart Pearce recently being appointed caretaker England Manager, why am I not surprised that our national press have made no outcry about having a racist, who's brother is an active member of the BNP, managing the country?
