From the EFL website on Joe Taylor: “Lincoln City striker Joe Taylor has been named the Sky Bet League One Player of the Month for March.

Six goals and a cheeky backheeled assist in five games for the 21-year-old, whose dynamism helped Lincoln score an incredible 17 goals. His first senior hat-trick against Bristol Rovers showcased his instincts, pace and strength in equal measure.

Lincoln Michael Skubala said: “Joe deserves this award for the work he puts in on the training pitch every day – he’s improved as a player throughout his time at the club and has been rewarded with the goals and accolades.

“But he knows he needs a team to score and, while he’s the one whose job it is to put it in the back of the net, he’s also shown his willingness to work for the benefit of the whole team and do whatever is needed as part of the gameplan.”

Taylor said: “I’ve loved every second of my loan at Lincoln City – the players, coaching staff and everyone around the club has been brilliant and that has been reflected in the performances and results.

“Everything about the club is working for me at the moment. The fans get the LNER Stadium rocking on matchdays, and really get behind us on the road, so this award gives me an extra confidence boost going into the final games of the season.”
