LYLE TAYLOR will put his feelings for AFC Wimbledon to one side when colchester travel to Plough Lane today.

Taylor, 34, is a Dons legend and made over 150 appearances during a three-year spell with the south Londoners before going on to join Charlton and then Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
