Yeovil will be looking to get back to winning consecutive games again after a little stumble in form. The Glovers got back to winning ways on Wednesday night in the Somerset Derby against Jerry Gill’s Bath City. The 1-0 win saw Town keep their first clean sheet in 6 games, after a run of four without a win.

Dartford’s form and performances have really stepped up in recent weeks compared to how they were playing in the early the matches of the season.

“The Darts” most recent match was against Torquay United, which they won 3-0 at home. That game was played on the 25th of November, so they haven’t played for a couple weeks. Dartford haven’t won 2 league games in a row since the end of September into October, where they beat Tonbridge at home 1-0 and Chippenham away 4-1. (Winning at Chippenham must be nice…)

The Glovers will be looking to pick up the form they had in THAT 14 game winning run. Dartford will be looking to win consecutive games to push them up towards the top half of the table. It certainly won’t be easy for Yeovil as the Kent based side have underperformed so far and is a team stacked with quality.

Yeovil’s manager, Mark Cooper spoke to BBC Somerset’s Ian Randall after the 1-0 win over Bath City where he said the “desire, togetherness and commitment of the whole group is what got us through.”

Cooper was also asked how he feels about going to Dartford on Saturday where he said; “we’re looking forward to it” and “we’ll make sure we are really ready for it.”

It’s been a brilliant week for the Yeovil Town centre half Morgan Williams, who signed a new contract until 2026, before following it up with an 80th minute winner on Wednesday night. He spoke to Ian Randall after the game where he said that Wednesday nights win and clean sheet was “massive!”

Williams was also asked how he felt about the trip to Dartford on the weekend, he replied; “we’ve just gotta go to Saturday and try to get three points.”

Morgan Williams ? Mike Kunz

Alex Whittle had to come off for Will Dawes midway through the first half on Wednesday night after going down injured, after the game Mark Cooper was asked for an update on the left back where he said: “He’s alright, we thought he felt something in his calf, but hopefully it’s not too bad and it’ll be ok for Saturday.” The only other injuries are Jordan Stevens and Jamie Sendles-White who are out with longer term injuries.

There are no suspensions for Saturday’s trip to Kent, which means Rhys Murphy could return to the fold.

Dartford News

A fun fact for anyone reading this that didn’t already know, THE Martin Tyler, yes that one, is the assistant manager at Dartford and he said after their 3-0 win over Torquay that “Alan Dowson (their manager) has claimed that this is the best performance his side has put out since he arrive.!”

One of the suspensions for Dartford was meant to be Paul Rooney however, his red card that was obtained against Braintree was appealed and overturned by the FA so he is available for selection. The other suspension is for forward Harvey Bradbury who will miss the game.

After a two weeks without a fixture, there is no news on injuries for The Darts as of writing.

As I previously mentioned, Dartford are a very good side that is underperforming. They have plenty of a talented forwards within the squad including their star player Luke Coulson (number 7) who is a tricky winger with a decent end product. He is now in his second year with The Darts and has scored 5 goals this season.

Another player to look out for is striker George Alexander (number 18) on loan from National League side Bromley. He started the season at Slough Town where he scored a number of goals, placing himself at the top of the goalscorer list for a few weeks. He has only played one game for Dartford, but he did score in their 3-0 win over Gary Johnson’s Torquay.

With the 243rd West Country derby now in the history books, it was the mighty Glovers who took the win, their 14th win of the season handing them a 6 point lead at the top WITH a game in hand! Let’s see what happened elsewhere on a wet midweek of football.

Action in the National League South was spread across 3 days, starting with the regular Monday night fixture for Aveley. They hosted Welling United, who found themselves down to 10 men in the 39th when goalkeeper Reice Charles-Cook was sent off. Midfielder Antony Papadopoulos was subbed on and took the gloves for the remainder of the game, and did a good job, as Aveley could only muster a 2-2 draw!

The rest of the action came on Tuesday night, and we start with Weston-super-mare, who made it 4 wins in a row by hammering Worthing, the 4-0 scoreline sending the hosts up to 11th. Torquay United continued their revival in form by handling W*ymouth with ease, a stunning free-kick from Brett McGavin among the 3 home goals in their 3-1 victory. Meanwhile, Maidstone handled visitors Truro City in a 2-1 win, sending home the 22 visiting fans who made the 10 hour, 600 mile round trip on Tuesday night, huge credit to them!

Chippenham Town travelled to Hemel Hempstead and left as 2-0 winners, the win elevating the Bluebirds just above the hosts to 14th. The final game of the night was a 1-1 draw between Hampton & Richmond and Braintree Town, where a 94th minute Ben Seymour penalty rescued a point for the high flying hosts, who sit in 3rd.

There was a final match, meant to be played on Tuesday, but once again, Taunton were meant to play but their game against Slough was postponed and will be rescheduled.

In: Five Conclusions, Gloversblog, Latest Yeovil Town News

The Glovers triumphed at Bath City to keep the gap between the chasing pack to six points. Ian was in the away end at Twerton Park, and here are his conclusions…

It was not a pretty game. It wasn’t until late in the second half where we showed signs of causing Bath problems. The first half was slow, sideways and a bit too hoofy for my liking. Cooper and Worthington looked like they’d not played as a pair for a while. Alex Fisher and Frank Nouble looked like a partnership playing for the first time together. Given the exertion against Wrexham three days earlier, and the conditions, you can forgive a bit of fatigue and sloppiness. That said, Bath City didn’t cause Joe Day too many issues in goal, and defensively I thought we looked mostly comfortable.

I still don’t like wingbacks. This team does not suit a back three, wingback formation. No one can convince me otherwise. I sort of understood it against Wrexham, although I would have liked to have seen us go with what’s made us so good this season. But I didn’t get it last night. It was all very sideways amongst the back three before a big diagonal hoof. Michael Smith has been so effective overlapping a winger and the shape just doesn’t allow those same patterns of play. It was a shame to see Alex Whittle go off, however it forced us into a change eventually, with Duncan Idehen moving to left back and Will Dawes playing in his best position.

Will Dawes.

And Dawes had a great second half. Our brightest spells came from Dawes running at, and getting the better of, Bath’s right back. Dawes is such an honest footballer. There’s no ego, he works hard for the team and last night was no different. Came on at left wing back, didn’t look overly comfortable but worked hard for the team. When we changed to a 4-4-2, he was relentless on the left. He got crosses into the box and had bright attacking moments and worked back to support Idehen, who was under a lot of pressure from Bath City’s number 15, Jordan Thomas (who looks like some player by the way).

It was good to see Alex Fisher back on the pitch. The injury Fisher suffered against Southend was so horrific, that to see him back playing before the end of the year feels like a minor miracle. He divides opinion, for a striker he should score more than he does, things didn’t necessarily come off for him last night. But, after a gruelling rehab (who can forget the cage around his leg) he’s just battled through 90 minutes for the first time since the injury, against one of the better sides in the division and is back putting his body on the line for Yeovil Town.

It was a huge win. Given that Torquay and Maidstone both won on Tuesday night, and that Bath have been in the thick of the chasing pack, those three points at Twerton Park are huge. The six point gap remains and there’s still a game in hand on 2nd, 3rd and 4th. You could see what it meant to the players and, specifically, Mark Cooper at the end. The performance wasn’t brilliant, but the result and feeling at the end was. Now we’re out of the cup competitions, we’ve got a straight run in the league, with one focus in mind.

Goalscorer Morgan Williams spoke to BBC Somerset following the victory at Bath City. Here’s what he said to Ian Randall.

Ian Randall: Well, Morgan, that feels like a big result for you does it?

Morgan Williams: Yes, 100%. we knew this game was going to be massive as it’s a derby, but it just feels surreal right now that we’re sat here with the three points.

IR: How much of a touch did you get on on Charlie Cooper’s cross?

MW: I think it was very clean. To be fair, I have to watch it. But yeah, it was absolutely buzzing at the moment.

IR: You were so close in that there was very little reaction time for the keeper. So you kind of knew get it on target and good chance it would go in..

MW: Yeah, Charlie’s got a beautiful delivery on him. Like as Youngy, but obviously it was Charlie that took the free kick today and it was just a perfect free kick.

IR: In terms of the pattern of the game, not much in it for an hour, but Michael Smith cleared the ball off the line from Elliot Frear and it seemed to be that that was the point at which you came on stronger and Bath lost a bit of their energy.

MW: Yeah, I think it was. It’s a massive moment from Smudger clearing off the line. We have to defend beautifully in our box and obviously try [to] be ruthless in their box. And I think that’s the game like, you can’t be perfect every game. We know we didn’t play magnificent. We were far off it today. But sometimes you have to come to these away games and derby days and kind of just grind, grind the result out and we’ve done that today. We’ve kept a clean sheet, we spoke massively on that beforehand, that we’ve not kept many clean sheets this year, so, we’re really proud of that and we have to take that into Saturday.

IR: In terms of the defence started with three of you at the back with the two wing backs. Yeah, ultimately went to a four at certain points and and Thomas gave you some anxious moments at the back. He was he was lively for Bath?

MW: Yeah, he was. He was. He was good player. We know that they’ve got, they’ve got good players as across the whole league, we’ve got good players as well. But I think we dealt with that well. If you got a ball and we defended well, Dunc and Dawesy doubled upon him on the wing and I think we dealt with that quite well.

IR: And in in terms of the the top end of the picture, I think  Mark’s phrase ‘tee to green’ on Saturday you couldn’t finish anything. Today there wasn’t a great deal in that first hour, but as the game got a bit more stretched, you you you got a bit more joy.

MW: Yeah, definitely. I think that’s how it is. We know that we’re we’re very fit and that if we can be 0-0 until the 60th minute, if it’s not falling for us, then we know that we’ve got that extra energy to go get that extra goal.

IR: So on to Dartford now at the weekend, the last away game in this sequence. This probably stretches back then you can remember but if you could top that sequence off with another, it’s really putting pressure on the chasers, even people like Maidstone and Torquay who’ve won during the week, they’re not gaining ground on you.

MW: Yeah, I think it’s massive. We’ve just gotta go to Saturday and try to get the three points again and then back at home next week and try go again.

Mark Cooper spoke to the BBC Somerset’s Ian Randall following Yeovil’s 1-0 win at Bath City last night. Here’s what he had to say.

Ian Randall: Well, Mark, predictably, I suppose it was tight and decided by a set piece.

Mark Cooper: Yeah, it was a very typical local derby. Tight game, loads of mistakes. I think Sunday drained us emotionally, physically as well. The injury to Whittle causes a problem. We then had to change shape a couple of times. I thought Bath were really good – stretched us. But, the desire, the, the togetherness and the commitment of the whole group tonight was what got us through.

IR: You said that you were drained by Sunday, but actually you finished the stronger.

MC: Yeah, we needed a spark, and we got a spark. It was a couple of balls that flashed across the goal that we should have scored from. And then eventually we got one didn’t we? And then we started to come on top and play a little bit then and [play] a little bit more like us. But listen, it’s never going to be easy to win promotions or win things. There’s always times in the season when you have to really dig in, the weather’s changed, it’s cold, the pitches are starting to get heavy. You have to dig in and we did that.

IR: Michael Smith made an important clearance too at at 0-0 from Elliot Frear’s shot and at that point. That was where Bath started to look as if they were running in treacle, a bit. That was when the balance started to tip, I thought.

MC: Yeah, our players just get through it. They keep going, they keep grinding, got some real warriors out there. Alex Fisher coming in for his first game. He’s played 90 minutes – amazing. He played right wing for 30 then. I’ve watched Bath, they’re a really good team. The managers done a terrific job. They’ve got some really exciting players. I thought their right winger was outstanding. And credit to Jerry [Gill], they’re a really good team and they gonna have a really good season.

IR: How is Whittle?

MC: Whittle’s alright. We thought he felt something in his calf, but hopefully it’s not too bad and it’ll be OK for Saturday.

IR: Some of the sides that won last night might have looked at tonight as being a tricky sort of game for you, but you’ve you’ve stepped away from the pack again and got the gap back up to six [points].

MC: I’m sure they did. And like we all do “they might win there, they might lose there.” I’m sure we all do that. And you know, I’m sure that would have waited a few tonight that we’ve we’ve managed to nick a win. But yeah, we know we gotta be better, of course, but we can’t play brilliant every week about a couple of weeks we’ve been a little bit hit and miss, but we bounced back with a win in front of the brilliant away support. [It] is incredible for for the level.

IR: You used the word ‘nicked’. Do you feel you’ve nicked it then?

MC: I think if you’re always in the game, you’ve always got a chance to win it. Think it was pretty even, there wasn’t loads of chances. I think we had more chances in the second-half and should score a couple. Smudge clears one off the line so could have gone either way.

IR: And now the little matter of a 300 mile round trip back to southeast London to go to Dartford on Saturday. How how awkward will that Be?

MC: No, [we’re] looking forward to it. Looking forward to it, every game we we take a massive following with us. We’re looking forward to every game. Players will get a day off tomorrow to recover and then we’ll train on Friday and make sure we’re really ready for the game.

IR: Were there meaningful celebrations at the end because in a sense, both the squad you and the fans knew what this meant?

MC: I think you should celebrate when you win a game like that. I don’t think there’s anything wrong. We’re together, we celebrated together in front of a brilliant away following. So we make no bones about celebrating like that.

Yeovil Town extended their lead at the top of the National League South to six points with a huge win over fellow play off contenders Bath City.

A single Morgan Williams goal in the second half was all that separated the sides.

First half

The first half began with the hosts in the early ascendancy, Jake Wannell deflected a Joe Greenslade shot wide in just the second minute, but nothing could come of the corner.

The Glovers’ first forray into the Bath City came with a long ball from Duncan Idehen to the returning Alex Fisher, it was a scrappy first ten minutes or so, neither side really able to get their game going.

The hosts were prominent down both flanks, a cross evaded everyone from the right hand side, as the ball broke down, Charlie Cooper stole the ball back before trying to find Fisher wide on the left, his cross just too high for Frank Nouble to bring down.

As the clock ticked past 10 minutes, more danger for the Glovers came from the visitor’s left hand side. Morgan Williams and Idehen teaming up to clear the danger after an error by Wannell.

When in possession, the GLovers were compact and happy to move the ball around, Cooper, Matt Worthington and Alex Fisher all combining well, and it was the Skipper Worthington who forced the visitors’ first corner of the game.

Jordan Young’s delivery was flapped at by stand in Keeper Slav Huk for Bath, but there was no one there to take advantage of the situation.

With 16 minutes gone, Bath had by far their best chance, Dan Hayfield skipped into the box on the left hand side, but his cross couldn’t be met by a team mate, with former Yeovil trialist Scott Wilson flinging himself to get to the ball.

The hosts were dominating possession, Yeovil were looking to release the pressure with longer balls to Fisher and Nouble.

Yeovil were forced into an early change after Alex Whittle went down off camera clutching his right shin, Will Dawes came on as his replacement, like for like into left wing back.

The change nearly caught the Glovers out with a driven free kick from the left hand side needing a couple of attempts to clear.

Jordan Thomas was causing more problems down the Bath City right hand side, twisting and turning before putting a cross in – one that Joe Day could deal with promptly.

His clearance put Michael Smith into a brilliant position, he turned onto his left foot, but his volley was blocked out for a corner.

Young’s delivery only came back to him, the number 11 couldn’t force a delivery after combining with Nouble and Worthington. Young’s slip ended a short stint of pressure for the Glovers.

Bath City’s Thomas was again causing trouble, he forced a corner which was headed towards goal by the home side captain Kieran Parselle. Joe Day was well placed to take the catch with ease, but the signs were clear, Bath are coming for the left hand side of our defence.

Greenslade at left back found Hayfield in acres of space on the edge of the box, his first time effort was sliced wide, but again, far too easy.

Yeovil regained possession through Matt Worthington, he launched the ball in behind the Bath defence for Fisher to chase, he and Michael Smith combined to get a ball into the box, Frank Nouble’s header high and wide.

This move also saw a change of formation, the Glovers switching to a 4-4-2, Idehen at left back with Will Dawes in front of him.

The change in Glovers formation, brought about a change in attack for the hosts, some neat interchange between Thomas and Hayfield saw the latter enter the box, but Nouble was back doing his defensive duties to mop up.

Yeovil were struggling to keep hold of possession, Slav Huk’s skewed clearance, was brought down by Nouble, but again, the game was broken up, this time by a cynical foul.

Charlie Cooper’s set piece couldn’t beat the first man.

The longer balls, particularly from Smith down the Glovers’ right hand side were working, with Nouble and Fisher comfortable with their backs to goal, but when Nouble teamed up with Worthington, the final ball wasn’t there.

Bath quickly broke, three on three, the ball bobbled to Elliot Frear, his shot was smothered by a Joe Day/Morgan Williams combo for a corner.

With time winding down, Yeovil were happy with possession, without being particularly cutting in attack, the game almost sleep walking to half time.

Will Dawes tried to wake it up, his attack down the left side snuffed out, the ball quickly recycled back to the Glovers defence.

Two minutes of added time… it wasn’t a classic 45 minutes of football.

Half time: Bath City 0 Yeovil Town 0

Second half

The Second Half saw no changes from either side, the Glovers in their adjusted 4-4-2 formation from the outset, a series of Goalkeeper to Goalkeeper clearances kicked us off, neither side’s midfielders touching the ball for the first couple of minutes of the second period.

It was no great surprise to see Jordan Thomas in the thick of the first real passage of play of note, he sent Idehen for a hot dog on the right hand side, but his cross was snuffed out.

QUickly down the other end and Will Dawes sent his own defensive counterpart for a refreshment, his cross headed behind.

It was from the resulting corner which saw the Glovers get their first real chance at goal, Morgan Williams rising highest and heading just wide of the right hand post.

This warmed the game up slightly, Thomas was a man on the mission down the Bath right, he slid Scott Wilson behind the defensive line, but the ball was ushered out for a corner. 

Minutes later there was an almighty defensive calamity from the Bath keeper, Will Dawes chased down a lost cause and deflected a Huk clearance into the air, Huk and Dawes fought for the header, the ball just dropping out of range of Alex Fisher with the goal gaping.

Dawes was soon back in the game shortly after, he forced another corner after snapping at the heels of the Bath defender, Huk this time able to fly swat the set piece out. This had been the Glovers best five minutes of the game without question. 

After Joe Day dealt with a horror of a back pass from Morgan WIlliams, he cleared to Will Dawes, who again found space, he bombed down the left, cut inside but his shot was weak on his right (standing) foot.

Now the game was in motion, Bath on the attack down the right, the ball dropping to the full back, his cross-come-shot was easily dealt with.

Scott Wilson was trying to get into the game, he turned Morgan Williams, but the defender was more than capable of getting the distance back and dealing with the danger.

Joe Day dealt with the rest and launched a ball high into the North Somerset night. Slav Huk’s audition for Dancing on Ice nearly offered Frank Nouble a chance at goal, but the Slovakian was able to regain his footing… and control of the ball in time.

Bath were soon in on goal once again and it was that man Thomas causing all the havoc down the right, his cross found his opposite number flying in from the left, but Michael Smith was positioned well on the line – could, maybe should, have been 1-0.

Frustrations were starting to kick in, Jordan Young made his way into the book after a foul and a word, Bath had a wonderful position for a free kick on the left of the Yeovil 18 yard box.

The delivery was met by the home side skipper, Parcelle, but nothing overly dangerous.

Jordan Young was replaced by Sonny Cox soon after, the winger’s frustrating evening coming to an end.

Cox was soon in the thick of it, pulled down by Parcelle after latching onto to a Michael Smith through ball. 

The resulting free kick was nearly forced into the goal at the near post by Alex Fisher, another near miss and another bit of shaky Bath defending.

Matt Worthington was the second Glover into the ref’s note book, something akin to an NFL sideline tackle making absolutely sure Thomas didn’t progress further up the field.

A lengthy stoppage followed, a clash between Joe Raynes and Will Dawes left them both flat out on the ground, Raynes having some fairly heavy strapping wrapped around his hand.

Following the stoppage, the Glovers were out the blocks quicker, Dawes forcing another cross from the left, but the ball trickled into the only space in the 18 yard box not occupied by a body in green.

Mark Cooper rolled his final dice shortly after with Jake ‘don’t call me a Super Sub’ Hyde brought on for Nouble. Alex Fisher set for 90 minutes, despite Cooper saying pre-match he was probably only good for an hour.

All three Glovers changes done, Bath City still with their starting line up.

The match was becoming a 1 v 1 of Dawes v Thomas, the former sprinting down the left but losing the ball, the latter trying to take advantage but went down too easily when trying to claim a free kick on the edge of the Glovers’ penalty area.

Scott Wilson went into the book… as did Jerry Gill… after a free kick was awarded right in front of the home dug out.

The free kick, pin point from Cooper was met by Morgan WILLIAMS, celebrating his new contract with a vital goal! 

After the goal, plenty happened. A couple of Glovers’ idiots threw flares onto the pitch and pretended to cause some trouble, it’s nearly bed time… school in the morning.

Bath City’s Frear was also cautioned in the shenanigans after.

How would Bath respond? Well, by heading down the right hand side through Jordan Thomas. 

The Glovers did what they had been doing best, going through Will Dawes, he was man handled to the ground by the Joe Raynes, who didn’t get a booking for his belly to belly suplex.

The free kick, once again almost inch perfect, Morgan Williams again the intended target, over his head by a matter of inches.

With five minutes of the regular 90 left, Bath forced a free kick of their own down the right hand side, Thomas stood over the ball but his delivery behind everyone.

The Glovers could be forgiven for going into ‘game management’ mode, Bath – and in particular Jordan Thomas – were still causing trouble.

The hosts were always going to force a chance and it did come as the clock hit 90 minutes, Thomas with a drop of the shoulder and a fierce shot that was always rising.

The board goes up with 7 (Seven) minutes added on, both sides still nullifying the others attacks, the offside flag coming to the rescue of Bath as Hyde strayed too far forward.

Thomas again (I’m sick of typing his name) forced a cross into the box, Wilson catching the header on the way down from his jump, not able to control the attempt on goal.

Joe Day’s goal kicks were taking longer and longer, the Glovers defence getting deeper and deeper. 

94 minutes on the clock and Bath were not giving in, a long ball was only half defended by Idehen, but Williams mopped up.

Dawes tried to kick start a counter, but his ball couldn’t find Hyde, a few seconds later, Alex Fisher, who was running like a man who hadn’t played 90 minutes in a LONG time, had the ball in the corner, but the play was brought back for a rogue offside flag.

The clock was ticking, the fingernails were all but gone, Joe Day knew this and collapsed on a claimed cross and took the sting out the final stages.

The 97th minute ticked on by, another long free kick hit the Glovers box, but it was dealt with.

98 minutes. Any time you like, ref… Scott Wilson hooked a ball towards goal, corner kick. Up comes Slav Huk.

But to no avail! 

One goal, three HUGE points. Up the Gloves

Yeovil Town make a number of changes for the League game against Bath, the most notable is a first start of the season for Alex Fisher.

The front man hasn’t started a game since last season after recovering from a double leg break suffered against Southend United.

The full team is as below.
