Taylor Threatens Below-Par Tigers

Peter Taylor had previously said he would field a reserve team for the match, but following the draw with Macclesfield at the weekend he is now set to field more first team players.

He said: "I was going to play one or two tomorrow night anyway but you can add one or two more to that list now. It will do them good.
"You've got to give credit to Macclesfield. I thought they worked very hard and they were very dangerous when they attacked us. However, I still felt we should have had too much for them but it wasn't to be.
"There were some very disappointed players in our dressing room after Saturday. They know they've thrown two points away. They know they blew it.
"The overall performance was disappointing and both the goals we conceded were disappointing. There's no doubt that if you let in cheap goals then you won't be successful and we let in two."

Justin Whittle was faulted for both goals and is now set to play tomorrow. City's midfield stars Stuart Green, Stuart Elliott and Jason Price could also be brought down to earth with LDV Trophy duty.
