This Saturday, Taunton Town travel to Dorset to face second-placed Poole Town at the Tatnam Ground, with the Peacocks looking to build on a convincing midweek win.
Match Preview
Taunton Town head into the weekend in good spirits after Tuesday night’s 3-0 victory away at Bath City. The Peacocks now face one of the toughest assignments in the Southern League Premier South, a trip to a Poole Town side sitting second in the table. The Dolphins will see this fixture as a chance to put pressure on the league leaders, as a victory would move them to within a single point of Uxbridge at the summit.
Peacocks Looking to Build
Tuesday’s short trip to fellow Somerset side Bath City came after a 10-day spell without a game, but there was no sign of rust. Taunton were dominant from the first whistle and had two goals on the board before the break, with Jay and Scott both getting on the scoresheet in the opening half.
Scott then added his second of the night late on, with the 85th-minute strike sealing a comfortable 3-0 win and a welcome three points on the road.
Between the sticks, Lloyd Irish was once again called upon in goal, with Freddie Godden still serving his three-match suspension.
The Opposition
Poole Town welcome Taunton Town to Tatnam stadium this Saturday, sitting 2nd in the Southern League Premier South. Nicknamed The Dolphins, they are coming off a draw against Uxbridge in their last league outing, and will be looking to get back to winning ways as they push for the top of the table.
