Any “cashing in” would have to factor in the very real renewed risk of relegation - Taylor is critical to our recent form - without him attacks just break down

Well then it's time to sit down with Ryan and offer him a longer term deal. He surely has to be integral to what Derek Adams is trying to achieve. Trying to replace him when he was injured proved impossible. That said We need to be looking for someone similar to push him for his place or at least be his understudy.

Bradford have apparently made three bids so they are keen, a lot will depend on replacements, I think if Adams can bring in two strikers in the same mould as Taylor then he will leave. He can leave for free in six months.
The Bradford fans are not happy about this potential signing, they probably looked at Taylor's goal scoring record rather than what he brings to the team.

If the players want to go then it puts a difference slant on things,
You only have to look at Bradley’s performances early in the season when his head was turned,
If the Argyle favourites want to go then it becomes very difficult for the management team,
Take Taylor, nobody wants to see him leave, but if he won’t extend his contract it’s probably nailed on he’ll move in the summer,
it may be better to ‘cash in’ providing it’s a decent offer,
I just hope that all options are being considered.
Clubs do not make offers out of the blue.It can be assumed Taylor and his agent would like the move.As we failed to sign a suitable alternative in the Summer, the chances of signing two decent replacements now seems fanciful.Taylor must be kept no matter what the offer is,without a proper central striker we will face relegation.We are also in desperate need of cover/competition for Taylor.Of course Adams will be more aware of this than any of us,lets hope we do not get turned down by everyone as per the Summer.
More money, closer to home. We’ve been here before. Although in my opinion this would be a bigger loss than toums.

Maybe not but it gives us more leverage in the fee.
I struggle to understand the fact that we can have our best players like Bradley, Taylor and Oscar on the unsettled 6 month of contract period.
It’s only natural for them and there agents to start looking round for further employment keeping there options open.
Can we plan further ahead as a club? Toumbs was a prime example and I stlll think if we had opened talks earlier we would have him here now and until the end of the season at least.
Wonder what sort of bid the club would regard as acceptable?
Every player has his price and in reality Argyle has typically been a "selling" club. As we have already let 3 strikers go surely we can't consider letting Taylor go?
I may be proved wrong but I am not convinced we can find two quality strikers to join in January which would be a minimum if Taylor went.

Who cares about reports that our 1 remaining forward is having an interest shown in him. Everything is just perfect the way things are and there’s really no need to bother with recruitment, after all we had to make do without Taylor for so much of the early part of the season and we’re still 13th.
