Sad article here about how Dave and his wife aren’t getting the support they need from the PFA:

Very sad, and this PFA seems to find excuses for everything rather than actually helping. His condition is a dreadful one though, I've experienced seeing it at first hand and it's worse than anything, poor bloke.

The pfa is a joke. Its members should be knocking on its doors demanding it treats it members and ex members better.
I hope Dave and his family get the support they need soon.

As has been said one of the best two centre halves to have played for the club in the last 50 years. I remember him heading a ball for England that went half the length of the pitch almost to the byline for keegan to chase, and cut back. I can’t remember who scored. But what a header

Taylor is a complete wanker and probably has more than enough money in his own account to help Big Dave out.Instead he`s become the highest paid equivalent of a Trades Union highjacker.
