Probably says more about Taylor's abilities than those of Benjamin's, of course.

Oxford Union interviews like this are meant for more of a wider audience - but I felt the presenter asked some decent questions which gave good insight into Brendan Rodgers and Leicester. Maybe not the most hard hitting questions, but definitely good to listen to whilst working during the Lockdown!

Sorry, to be clear you are correct. Piper completely understood why he had to leave for the club to carry on running. He was just always a Leicester fan and wanted to play for us and not leave. 1
Guest Electric Yetis Posted 15 April 2020 Posted 15 April 2020 Enjoyed the Piper podcast on Undr The Cosh. Some decent stories from behind the scenes and makes Trev Benjamin sound pretty endearing.

Great podcast from Matt Piper. Talking about his move to Sunderland and the story of Trevor Benjamin and Stan Collymoore. pl The Benjamin/Collymore story gives me a further indication that Peter Taylor’s man-management skills were atrocious. Two players had a falling out (over a game, not off the field stuff) and he gets rid of the one who, quoting Piper “looked like Zidane” out of position! Manage the situation man, get the guys in the office the next day and tell them to work it out. He failed miserably here not only because of his piss poor transfer record but because of his ego issue with big characters. Considering the squad he knew he was taking over, he really was a bad choice. We were filled with eccentric characters. He did the same with Cottee and Walsh when both could’ve been valuable voices in that dressing room when the shit hit the fan. Maybe I just want to have a dig at Taylor because that video brought up some bad memories from a difficult period for the club (I still remember when the Piper deal was announced and I was absolutely gutted).
