He was far from my favourite England manager but loved watching himmanaging club sides and latterly listening to him on Radio 5. He never went in to rant mode on the radio but was clear and measured in his thought and comment and very rarely left you finding yourself arguing against what he had said.

Yep..Spot on.
It was shameful of the Sun(or Scum as they are also known by) to have that turnip headline about him.
That's what some people will remember & the ill advised fly on the wall documentary during his England tenure...I & many football supporters will remember him turning Watford from a midtable 4th Division team to 1st Division runners up within 6 seasons.plus a FA Cup final,when that competition was as prestigious as winning the Football League.

Graham Taylor's Watford drew one of the biggest cup-tie crowds seen at SJP for this game, in the 4th round (4th?! what's that?). I think it was around 14,000. We'd beaten Bolton and Blackburn, they'd beaten Man Utd, so this was billed as the battle of the giant-killers. We lost, they reached the semis.
