It is all 'past history' now but I certainly don't think that 'Taylor team' would've got anywhere near the eventual World Cup winners, Brazil, or an impressive Italy side that lost the '94 final in the USA but they would've prob progressed to the latter stages with a bit of luck, something that was lacking in The Netherlands match when they were beaten by a good Dutch side in a close game. Reference to Graham Taylor's failure/demise always reminds of that horrible Sun front page newspaper headline: Swedes 1 Turnips 0 and a photo of Taylor's head superimposed with a turnip. No wonder so many people up n down the country despise this 'rag' with a passion - one of many ludicrous defamations/nasty insinuations (the Hillsborough episode one of the most despicable!!) that they peddled with impunity up to the present day!!
