Cheltenham Town and Exeter City face each other in a south-west derby at St James Park on Saturday.
Steve Cotterill spoke highly of former Cheltenham Town captain, Matt Taylor, as they prepare to face each other on the touchline for the lunchtime kick off.
“(He had) done well first-time round. I think he’s making it a really good fist of it now.
“In my opinion, he had a couple of real tough gigs, tough jobs at the time he had them, like they would have been for any manager.”
The former centre back was originally appointed manager of The Grecians in 2018.
In his first spell, Taylor drove the club to victory as they were promoted to League One.
Although the pair are “not big friends”, Cotterill said “he’s a good guy and more than sociable,” before wishing him luck.
