VISITING BOUNDARY PARK…

THE GRECIANS
                 MAN AT THE TOP...
                 MATT TAYLOR
                 The 39-year-old was appointed as first team Manager
                 at Exeter City on 1st June 2018 following the
                 departure of Paul Tisdale. Taylor returned to St James
                 Park after a spell as a player with the club making 160
                 appearances and scoring 17 goals.
                 The former defender signed for Exeter in June 2007 and
                 he was part of the side that won 1-0 in the play-offs.
                 Also, Taylor was in Grecians' starting XI that played in
                 the club’s first game back in the Football League against
                 Darlington.
                 In July 2011, he left Exeter to join Charlton Athletic,
                 where he was named vice captain under Chris Powell.
                 But he was released at the end of the 2012/13 season.
                 He went on to play for Bradford City, Colchester United
                 and Newport County as well as a few other clubs.
                 Overall, Taylor made 162 appearances and netted 19
                 goals as a footballer.
                 In his first campaign as manager he missed out on a top
                 seven finish by a single point. Last season, he guided
                 the club to the Sky Bet League Two Play-Off final but
                 suffered a heavy defeat against Northampton Town.

WHAT GOES AROUND...

Latics fans favourite James
Tarkowski takes a look back at
his professional debut and
recalls who he was marking that
game.
"I can remember who played upfront for Leyton
Orient which has come around in a full circle because
it was Harry Kane who played as the striker against
me. I think he was on loan getting experience whilst
at Spurs.
“I think that we played okay that day, we defended
really well for the most of it, but they ended up
scoring a strike from about 30 yards out and it sort of
kicked up off the grass and lifted up over Ben Amos.
“But, overall, on the day I think that we played quite
well and like I said it's come around full circle
because I recently came up against Kane in the
Premier League and it's amazing to see how well he's
progressed."
