EASTBOURNE BOROUGH fans’ favourite Jamie Taylor has returned to the club for his third spell, joining on loan from National League South rivals Margate.
The striker spent two Conference Premier seasons with the club from 2009 to 2011 and also had a brief spell on loan in 2014, scoring 39 times for the Sports.
A former Eastbourne player of the year, Taylor has found playing time difficult to come by at Margate since Nikki Bull replaced Terry Brown as manager.
The 33-year-old former Aldershot, AFC Wimbledon, Lincoln City and Sutton forward rejoins Eastbourne initially on loan for 28 days.
Borough boss Tommy Widdrington said: “With Darren Lok set to miss games after his dismissal on Tuesday, and Elliott Romain also close to a possible suspension for totting up yellows, this is a great time for us to strengthen our squad with one of the best strikers in the division.
“Having worked with Jamie before, I had no hesitation in re-engaging his services. He has so much to offer both to me and my coaches, and to the rest of the team.
“We are still a young side and still eager to learn and Jamie brings experience and proven ability. I am sure all supporters will join me in welcoming him back to the Lane.”
