Caskey, who is Maison's player-coach at The Grove, will be in the team looking to record the new boss's first win at Tiverton tomorrow.

And the ex-England youth captain reckons the new management team, that also includes Ron Atkinson, will bring an attractive brand of football to the club.

Caskey said: "He likes to pass it around. He likes to win as everybody does, but the ball will be on the ground and passed around and hopefully it will be exciting.

"It might take some time to knit together but hopefully the game will be played right, everyone will be trying to pass it around and hopefully we will be exciting and win football matches.

"Everyone knows that I wasn't playing regularly at Kettering and I'm very good friends with Morell.

"I like the way he way he plays football and when he took over here he made a phonecall and asked me to play and help him on the coaching side of things.

Maison could hand a debut to former Maidenhead striker Chris West tomorrow after his registration was completed.
