I could understand it if we had sacked Warne and then brought Taylor in as his replacement. Because that would the the club making a statement of intent that Warne wasn't/isn't the man for the job and the club believe Taylor is an upgrade.
But thats not the case. Warne made his choice and left, we had a vacancy to fill. Warne will always be a legend in my eyes and I've got so many fond memories of his tenure in charge, some of my happiest as a Miller. But Taylor didn't replace Warne, Taylor filled a vacancy.
They are both young and upcoming managers with different styles and different tactics. For me, it's as simple as last season Rotherham United had two managers and their combined efforts kept us up. If that means I have splinters in my arse from sitting on the fence then so be it, but it's the truth.
This season it's all on Taylor. His signings, his style. I'm liking what I see so far. Liking what Taylor is doing is absolutely no dig at what Warne was doing. So lets keep the debate healthy because it keeps the forum alive but I just do not see the need for the divide.
