Taylor scored 21 goals in 13 matches on loan for Thurlow Nunn Premier Division side Wroxham last season before returning to his hometown club to make a National League debut this season.

Posh Under 23s will now be managed by former star midfielder Simon Davies. The departure of first-team coach Mark Robson to manage West Ham Under 23s has led to a restructuring of the Posh coaching set-up with Matthew Etherington stepping up from the under 23 side to the first-team and Davies moving up from the under 18s.
