Taylor misses Daggers visit

Cheltenham will be without Jason Taylor when they welcome Dagenham.

The midfielder saw red in the first half of their 1-0 loss to Southend on Tuesday night and will now serve a three-match suspension, starting with the visit of Wayne Burnett's men.

Asa Hall is unable to step into Taylor's place as he is still two or three weeks from a first-team return having been missing since the opening day with a calf injury, while Saturday's match comes too soon for Lee Vaughan (foot).

Having roared into the automatic promotion places during the opening weeks, Cheltenham have failed to score or collect three points in any of their last three matches.

Dagenham will be missing Andre Boucaud when they make the trip.

The midfielder picked up two yellow cards in their midweek defeat at Portsmouth and will serve his one-match ban against the Robins at Whaddon Road.

Goalkeeper Mark Cousins is hoping to keep his place in the side ahead of Liam O'Brien having made his debut against Pompey, while Ian Gayle and Ashley Hemmings are pushing for recalls having been left out for Damian Batt and George Porter.

Jamie Cureton looks set to start up front against the side who he scored 11 goals for in 36 appearances last season.
