Taylor doubt for Tranmere

Tranmere boss Ronnie Moore could be without Ash Taylor when they entertain Colchester.

The defender was withdrawn during Tuesday night's Capital One Cup tie against Aston Villa with a thigh injury. Michael Kay replaced him on the night and is expected to deputise again with Taylor a major doubt. Fellow defender Mark McChrystal featured for the reserves in midweek as he stepped up his recovery but is still a week away. Ian Goodison is still two to three weeks away following knee surgery while Paul Black is also a fortnight away from returning. Forward Abdulai Bell Baggie has impressed Moore recently and may be in line for a starting role. But Moore isn't expected to make too many changes as Rovers look to continue their unbeaten start to the league season.
