A polarising figure who became an icon at some of the clubs he passed through, the game sadly lost Graham Taylor over two years ago. A revolutionary at Lincoln and Watford and a saviour at Aston Villa, Taylor was vilified during his time as England manager, before the peaks and troughs of a spell at Wolves and return visits to Vicarage Road and Villa Park. Beyond coaching, Taylor won a new army of admirers through punditry. Lionel Birnie, the man who worked extensively with him on his autobiography, Graham Taylor: In His Own Words, joins us to discuss the humble Englishman.
