Glovers Exit Adobe Women’s FA Cup

Match Round Up

Yeovil Town Women tasted defeat in the first round proper of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup, as higher level side Cheltenham Town beat them 7-0.
Despite the Glovers’ exit from the competition, their path to the first round was one to be proud of. Two penalty shootout victories in previous rounds against Pucklechurch and high level side Southampton ensured that Yeovil would face “a strong stable National League side”, as manager Paul Knight described them.

Yeovil’s first set back of the day arrived in the 18 th minute as club captain Jess Hodge was stretchered off due to injury, we wish her well in her recovery.

Cheltenham went up a gear shortly after this and scored three goals in the space of twenty minutes, to go in at the break three to the good.

In a second half in which the Glovers kept the hosts out for a valiant 23 minutes, Cheltenham made it four in the 68th minute and proceeded to add three more to make it a convincing victory and book their place in the second round.

The tie finished 7-0 with Yeovil Town Women’s underdog FA Cup story coming to an end, they can reflect on their FA cup involvement this season with pride.

Cheltenham Town Women posted clips of all the goals on their social channels.

It’s been a while since the Glovers were back in action and finally, Yeovil can go back in search of three points this weekend.

But as ever, we need some officials and here’s who will be taking charge of the game against Southend.

Abigail Byrne will be tasked with keeping everything in order, she’s only refereed a handful of games at domestic level this season, including two in National League; dishing out six yellow cards a piece in two games at this level.

She’s done some EFL Trophy ties and some Under 21s games too.

But, most recently she’s been part of an English officiating team at the FIFA Under 17s Women’s World Cup in the Dominican Republic (I mean, there are worse places to referee a football match!) most recently acting as Fourth Official for the clash between Nigeria and the host nation on October 22nd.

She’s never taken charge of a Yeovil game, but did oversee a rather underwhelming 2-1 win for Southend over Maidenhead last season.

Arguably, her most high profile appointment came in 2013 when she was in charge of SoccerAid at a packed out Old Trafford where the Rest of the World beat England to win the trophy and raise a boat load of cash for UNICEF along the way.

If you can keep up with the pace of play with Usain Bolt in the team, I don’t think any of our lot will cause much hassle.

Abigail will be assisted by Laurentiu Hantea and Graham Swanton, with Tommy Breen in charge of the dugouts.

On our latest episode we chat to Owen Pickard, a prolific goal-scorer the last time the Glovers returned from regional football. He talks about FA Cup heroics, a telepathic relationship with Warren Patmore and how he almost came back to Huish Park.

Yeovil Town have announced the signing of Exeter City youngster Pedro Borges on loan until January.

Borges who joined the St James’ Park outfit from Yeovil, where he was part of the youth system.

The Portuguese-born midfielder did represent the first team in the Somerset Men’s Premier Cup during the 2021/22 season before heading to Devon.

The winger has played first team football for the Grecians this season, as part of their EFL Trophy campaign and was a regular in the first team set up throughout pre-season. 

Since joining Exeter, he’s spent time at Dorchester and Plymouth Parkway on loan.

Welcome BACK to Huish Park, Pedro!

Yeovil Town Under-18s maintained their unbeaten start to the new Western Counties Floodlight Youth League season with a 3-0 home win over Paulton Rovers at Huish Park on Monday night.

After a goalless first half, striker Morgan Alexander scored three minutes after the restart to put the young Glovers ahead.

Joe Crisp added a second with a 78th minute penalty before George Geraghty added a third with a header in the final minute of the match.

The result moves Yeovil up to sixth place in the Premier Division table with just two matches played. It’s hard to figure out who has started the season well with leaders Clevedon Town having played six matches already.

Yeovil Town Under-18s: Louis Parker, Adam Samuels, Corey Koerner, Solomon Padmore, Jaydon Biss, Blake Watts, Joe Crisp, Nansimir Nanev, George Geraghty, Morgan Alexander, Ollie Hughes.

Substitutes: Denzil Gurung, Oscar Foot, Devon Proctor, Reece Bastafield, Josh Ansell.

There was a distinct lack of first-team fixtures for a lot of teams – as well as Yeovil Town – this weekend, so this could be a fairly brief edition of Loan Watch.

In the Wessex League Premier Division, full-back Corey Koerner made his Sherborne Town debut coming off the bench in the second half of a 1-0 defeat at Hamworthy Recreation. Under-18s’ youngster Josh Haskett was an unused substitute in that match.

Meanwhile in the National League South relegation zone, Will Buse was between the posts for W*ymouth as they picked up a narrow 1-0 win away at bottom club Aveley. We’re still not sure what one of those is.

The result moves the seagull-bothering lot up to third-from-bottom of the division. Jordan Thomas did not play this weekend either with Salisbury having a blank weekend, but he could face Torquay United and Jordan Young when the two sides meet on Tuesday night.

In the Southern League Division One South, young defender Jacob Shore came on as a second half substitute in a 3-3 draw at home to Didcot Town. He also came off the bench in the 2-1 away win at Mousehole the previous Tuesday night.

Also, midfielder Solomon Padmore has gone from Street to Bridport. The Dorset side’s reserve team won 3-1 away at Balti Sports in the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance Senior Trophy yesterday, however, with no team-sheets available, we don’t know if Sol featured.

If you know the whereabouts and appearances of any of the Glovers’ loan rangers, drop the Gloverscast a line on our socials or send us an email and we will include them in future round-ups.
