[8] He made a total of ten appearances for Clitheroe with his final appearance coming in a defeat to AFC Fylde in April 2012. [9] His spell at Clitheroe was short and Taylor joined North West Counties Football League First Division side Nelson in November 2012. [10] Taylor impressed in his first season with the club as Nelson finished in mid-table. He signed a new one-year contract in July 2013, turning down a number of clubs higher up the football pyramid. [11] In August 2013, after a bright start to the season he suffered a fractured fibula and was out of action for five months.
