Ramsgate striker Joe Taylor scores 150th goal for the club on 200th appearance as brilliant backheel completes 23-pass move

Ben Smith has paid tribute to Joe Taylor after Ramsgate’s captain brought up 150 goals for the club on his 200th appearance.

Taylor scored twice to achieve his latest milestone as the Isthmian South East leaders came from a goal down to beat Erith Town 3-1 at Southwood on Saturday.

It was the second goal that had everyone talking, a cheeky backheel at the end of a magnificent 23-pass move that started with keeper Tom Hadler and went through the team.

“It was a great goal,” said boss Smith, whose side levelled through TJ Jadama before Taylor’s double.

“We’ve scored a few like that.

“In terms of a team goal, every player has touched the ball.

“It’s nice when you score at the end of those and the way he scored it as well, he’s shown great creativity.

“I’m really pleased for him to do that on his 200th game.

“To score 150 goals in 200 appearances, credit to him but also credit to the boys.
