'A real boost' - Kevin Wilkin delighted with Telford star's return to fitness

Kevin Wilkin says he has been ‘boosted’ by the return to fitness of Telford star Jamie Meddows.

The attacking midfielder marked his return from an ankle injury with a well-taken goal in Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Hebburn at the SEAH Stadium.

And having seen his side struggle for goals prior to their last two fixtures, Wilkin admitted Meddows’ return could not have come at a better time.

“I’ve made no secret of the fact that we need Jamie in and around the group on a regular basis,” Wilkin said. “He’s come up with a brilliant moment for us on Saturday, a brilliant finish, and he’s had a real impact on us for the half an hour he was on the pitch.

“The goal was fantastic and showed why he’s a really big player for us, and showed that we need him playing regularly.

“As far as I’m aware he’s come through the game with no issues and is good to go again at Hereford, which is obviously a boost for us.

“It’s nice for me to have difficult selection decisions to make again. I want that competition for places and hopefully Jamie’s return will give us a real push in the right direction.”
