Glenn Taylor

Post by darloed19 » Mon Jul 03, 2023 7:47 pm

I’ve just played football with a lad from spenny called Connor Shanks (scored past us in jan). He was telling me that Glenn Taylor is on 1k a week (as a teacher) and has interest from Birmingham. Also apparently Spenny are going for it this season.

It would be something of a shock to say the least if a Championship side was in for a 33 year old who has never played higher than National North. Hasn't Taylor also rebuffed any interest from full-time teams previously because he wanted to remain as a teacher along with the considerable vibes that come with his part-time football at Spendy.

Early on his career I should have put the interest from Birmingham. Again this is coming from this Shanks.

If he is on a grand a week teaching, he must be more than a bog standard teacher. If true I hope he isn’t going on strike for more money 🤔

I'm sure Taylor will be delighted that one of his team mates is going round telling randoms how much he earns.

Apologies, I will write to my university to request a refund.

I think you should clarify where the interest is coming from in Birmingham - more likely to be the Building Society than City & West Bromwich Albion😁

Never understood all the fuss around him, he knows he has found his level - he has a good scoring record at this level, but nothing that would say he would be good enough to play league football.

Has there ever been a season since we dropped into the northern league, where Spenny havent been "going for it"?
Sure the inland revenue would like to know more about where all this money that was due to them ended up!!

Yet Groves is still propping them up by the looks of things, Chandler and the coach now full time, Ainsley director of football and signing 6 or 7 players.May be wrong though if season ticket sales have reached record proportions and they have launched a boost the budget?

HMRC still have the option of pursuing personal liability claims against GAS directors over the mountain of tax debt. They have already been critical about the way things have been managed.

And who could blame them, total incompetence by Groves pursuing his obsession with his Spenny fantasy project knowingly owing HMRC £6.7m.

Think the lad was winding him up. They couldn't keep Lundulu or Blackett, Tait is looking elsewhere due to wage cut. They have made seven signings, of which Ben Pollock would appear the standout name. Couple of lads Gateshead let go, couple from Bradford Park Avenue.

Montgomery in goal is a good signing but that more to tie in with his other jobs/business. Hardly as if they paid gateshead a fortune signing fee
