With new boss Phil Parkinson having arrived in the summer, Wanderers are aiming to start afresh after finishing rock bottom of the Championship last term.

The demotion to the third tier comes just FOUR years after they were in the Premier League.

But winger Taylor, 29, said: “The gaffer is looking for things to take off again and to put pride back into the shirt. They want to put last year behind the club, start afresh and, hopefully, have a good year.

“I’m delighted to get the chance to pull on the shirt. I knew it was a big club before I joined but I didn’t realise how big a club it actually was.
