Archie Taylor, a 19-year-old defender, who is in the same under 21 squad at Bristol City as recent loanee Jack Hooper, joins the Bluebells on loan whilst midfield player, Henry Sady (pictured in his Chippenham kit), also joins on loan from National League South side Chippenham Town having last season been an influential player at Melksham Town. Sady signed for Melksham from near neighbours Corsham Town in the autumn of 2023. Sady scored against the Bluebells in both League fixtures between the clubs last season, each game ending in a 1-1 draw.
Joe Keeping (pictured below) was signed just before the game at Bracknell and came on as a second half substitute. Earlier in the season, the 21-year-old defender, made 18 appearances for Bishops Cleeve. Joe started his career at Cardiff City and has also spent time at Merthyr Town.
Yate Town assistant manager, Paul Tovey, reflected, “With an eye on the number of upcoming fixtures between now and the end of the season, we have strengthened the squad with these three signings. Joe will provide competition on the left side, Henry across all forward position and Archie at centre half. We look forward to working with them.”
