December 2025 (Page 5)

Midfielder Brett McGavin has hailed the impact new manager Billy Rowley has had on the Yeovil Town squad since arriving at the club.

The 25-year-old made his comeback from almost two months out with injury to play a major role in the Glovers’ 2-1 home win over Boston United in the the boss’ first game in charge last weekend.

They travel to Hartlepool United this weekend looking to turn their first victory in eight matches in to a run.

Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Jack Killah on Thursday, McGavin said: “It has been a whirlwind, we knew very late about Billy coming in, but he has been a breath of fresh air for everyone. He did not have much time, so we just gave him that full energy and full commitment for 90 minutes. He gave us that freedom to go and play and I thought that, particularly in the second half against Boston, we were excellent.

It is quite clear he wants a specific style and I feel as if I can fit in to that style. Lots of passes, lots of time on the ball which I enjoy. Whether I am scoring goals, creating goals or even just keeping the ball ticking over for this team, I am happy to do any of that.

The second half against Boston should be us and I think will be us in the future. There is going to be bumps in the road because he is a new manager and we are an old manager’s team, so it is going to take time but I feel like there is a lot of positivity in the group and we feel we are going to be okay.

It was two goals from his midfield partner, Luke McCormick, which earned Yeovil victory last weekend and McGavin admitted the players were as relieved as supporters to pick up three points.

He confessed: “We needed three points desperately and you can see from the video which appeared on social media that we were over the moon. We felt that desperation for three points as much as the fans and we were delighted we could get them. Every footballer will tell you, training is always better after you get three points. Training has been lively and bubbly and that is credit to the staff.”

Asked about Hartlepool, he added: “They are a really tough, direct and strong team and they have been like that for a couple of seasons now, so if we want three points we are going have to be on top of our game. We will always try to impose our style and if I think we do that we can have a really good day.”

Yeovil Town manager Billy Rowley has set out a vision to build a side with young players at its core as he bids to move the Glovers up the table.

The boss, who joined from Southern League South side Walton & Hersham last month, said he was aligned with the club’s owner Prabhu Srinivasan in his “blueprint” for how he wants to build the club, mirroring the success he enjoyed at his former club.

The Glovers make the long journey to the North East to face Hartlepool United this weekend having picked up their first win in eight matches with a 2-1 home victory over Boston United in Rowley’s first game in charge last Saturday.

Asked by BBC Somerset reporter Jack Killah about his conversation with the owner, Rowley said: “He is a very passionate guy, very articulate and grips you when he talks and sells his vision very well. The club is steeped in history and he wants to keep it simple. He wants to build connections with the community through the players, he wants us to play with a clear style and recruit young and hungry players and that is everything I want to do as well as a football manager.

I value young players whilst not discriminating against older lads but generally a younger lad will run a bit harder and they are hungry and enjoyable to work with. We had great success working with young players at Walton (& Hersham) where we had the youngest team in the league last season and most possession in the league. How (Prabhu and I) are aligned in our blueprint of what we are want to do is very close.”

According to Transfermarkt, Yeovil currently have the tenth youngest squad in the National League Premier Division with an average age of 25.3 years. FC Halifax Town are the youngest at 23.3 years and Brackley Town are the oldest at 28.

Their opponents at the weekend, Hartlepool United (26.4 years, if you’re wondering), are in good form having won four and drawn three of their last seven league games since they sacked Simon Grayson as manager in October, replacing him with interim boss, current squad member Nicky Featherstone. The midfielder was an unused substitute when they held the Glovers to a goalless draw on the opening day of the season at Huish Park.

Rowley said winger Josh Sims was the only injury doubt for the match suffering with tendinitis in his Achilles Tendon, but confirmed full-back Alex Whittle, who was not in the squad for the win over Boston, would be available having overcome illness.

On Hartlepool, the Glovers’ boss said: “They are a solid team, very good at what they do. When you go up North to those types of places it is going to be a real battle, I am not sure the pitch is in the greatest condition which may affect how we approach the game. It is going  to be an incredibly tough game for us, an enjoyable experience which I am excited about. We are going to have to be at our best.”

Asked what he hoped to learn about the National League, he added: “I have learnt a lot already, even in the 90 minutes (against Boston) last Saturday, I am watching a lot of games with Darren (Simpson, assistant manager) and Sam (Curry, the club analyst) and I am learning things about the players. You can see the intensity of the way teams do things in transition, attacking and pressing the ball quicker is obvious, so we may have to adapt. One thing I back myself in is being a quick learner, I have been adaptable in my career.

Having added defenders Dan Ellison and Michee Efete in recent months, the Glovers’ squad is looking less lightweight than when they last faced Hartlepool back in August. Rowley has said he is still assessing the quality of his squad and whilst not ruling out the possibility of bringing in new faces, he appears in no rush to recruit.

He said: “I really like all the lads, they are all good players and we are definitely under-performing and in the last four or five training sessions I have been working with them, I am really excited to be working with them. I am really confident we can go and get some wins with this group, whether that means we do add one or two players in the next few weeks, we are open to that but it is not something we are chasing necessarily. Injuries happen and certain styles might not suit certain players, but it is not something we are screaming for at the moment.

Bristol Rovers loanee Jed Ward has been named the Gloverscast’s Player of the Month for November.

Five games played in the month and not all overly positive results but Ward was consistently in the votes for the Man of the Match polls.

He was top of the pile against both Southend and Morecambe and was an honourable second against both Wealdstone and Scunthorpe.

That adds up to a total of 10 points (3 each for the MOTM and 2 each for the second places) and that means he claims his second monthly gong after taking the Player of the Month for August as well.

Luke McCormick is second with James Plant taking November’s bronze medal.

December is a busy one and every vote counts, so make sure you have your say on our Man of the Match polls.

Luke McCormick has unsurprisingly cruised home to be named your Man of the Match from the home game against Boston.

Two goals and a commanding performance in a slightly more attacking role meant that he probably alerted the Real Madrid scouts with his showing, presumably they too have voted for the midfielder.

He picked up nearly 70 votes to claim top spot.

Brett McGavin was second in the vote with 10 MOTM nominations, good to see him back in the side after a spell out. James Plant picked up half a dozen nods too and fills the podium.

Ref, Referee, Match Official

Yeovil Town make the short trip north to Hartlepool this weekend and the man in the middle will be Dean Watson, a referee we have seen before, but only in the north of the country.

He took charge of the 1-1 draw away at Chesterfield (yes, that’s the north!) during the relegation season from the National League, Ryan Law salvaging a point with a header on that day.

More recently, he was also at the Shay when Yeovil lost 1-0 to Halifax thanks to an early Angelo Capello goal, Alex Whittle and FC-D were both booked on that occasion.

On the whole, Mr Watson has been one of the more lenient officials, in eight games across the National League and Premier League reserve leagues and cups, he’s issued 29 yellow cards, with 16 of those coming in two feisty encounters. 

He’s yet to offer anyone a red card and has only pointed to the penalty spot, once. 

He will be assisted by Simon Robinson and Jack Neild with David Jones looking after the dug outs.  


Dom Bernard offers Mr Watson some tips on keeping his shorts up high.

Assistant Referee: Nield, Jack
Fourth Official: Jones, David


In the late ’90s and early 2000s, Yeovil had one of the steadiest right backs in the Conference. That man was Dave Piper and he is this month’s guest on the Glovers Past. Remembered for his dashing runs down the wing at Huish Park, he played more than 150 times during four seasons with the club and was in fact the first player to score in front of the home end after it was covered with a roof.

Congratulations to Real Madrid Yeovil Town midfielder Luke McCormick for taking his place in the National League’s team of the week. 

We’ll overlook the fact that League sponsors Enterprise have him out on the left wing, but with two goals to his name against Boston on Saturday, they had to get the man in there somewhere!

Earlier this year we formally created the Gloverscast Community Interest Company (CIC) to further serve the Yeovil Town community.

What this meant was that any money that Gloverscast receives has to be used for the operation of Gloverscast. For example: website hosting and features, improving the website offering and maybe one day investing into some merchandise or a fanzine – don’t tell Ben and Dave!

We could turn on the ads on the podcast and website and keep the costs covered that way – but it’s really not what the Gloverscast is about. This community grew organically, out of a need for independent, ad-free, news and commentary and we’re proud to be big part of the experience of supporting the Glovers.

The growth of the Gloverscast (and what we’d love to do more of) comes with an increased costs, so we have a bit of a plea. If you get your YTFC fix from us through the regular podcast, our news, Five Conclusions, our social media channels, the monthly Glovers Pasts, Ref Watch, Loan Watch, Match Previews, the Foot in the Opposition Camp on a Saturday, our match reports, the Daily Glove, or any other way…please consider chipping in. Every single pound helps us cover our costs and secure the future of Gloverscast.

Thank you.

Visiting supporters to the Mangata Developments Stadium Meadow Park will be located at the South End of the ground, accessible via turnstiles 9 & 10, where there is an allocation for up to 1,250 spectators; this allocation is made up on 359 covered seats in our West Stand (operating on a first come first serve basis), whilst the remainder is made up of uncovered standing along the South and South East terraces.

Please note: It may be necessary to amend the location/configuration of visiting supporter’s allocation within the Stadium from time-to-time during the season to meet police and/or other operational requirements, however in these circumstances your club will be advised of any changes accordingly ahead of your fixture at the Mangata Developments Stadium Meadow Park.

Visiting supporter toilet facilities are located in the South East and South West corners of the Stadium, whilst catering/refreshments are available from the middle of our South terrace via our Stadium catering partners, as well as a new away fan zone in the South East of the Stadium.

Car parking & club house usage

Limited supporter parking is available at the Mangata Developments Stadium Meadow Park with the club car park prioritised for players, directors, officials and guests.

We advise supporters coming to the Stadium to park in Brook Road Public Car Park. Access to the Stadium is available from this car park via the South Stand Turnstiles (turnstiles 9 & 10 for visiting supporters) or via a public footpath through the adjacent park (turnstiles 1 to 6 for home supporters.) Please note that parking charges may apply.

Alternative parking is also available via the Hertsmere Council Civic Car Park, which is less than a 5-minute walk to ground. Again, please note parking charges may apply.

Other match day information

Boreham Wood FC has dedicated facilities for wheelchair bound and less abled supporters, which include a viewing area and disabled toilet facilities. These are available via the West Stand. Supporters wishing to make use of these facilities are asked to enter the stadium via the South Stand Turnstiles (turnstiles 9 & 10) off Brook Road Car Park. Disabled parking bays are available in this car park.

Please note that these parking spaces are limited and on a first come, first served basis. Unfortunately, spaces cannot be reserved by the club.

All ticket prices are sold at the relevant age category as listed above, though personal assistants/carers, where required, are admitted free of charge. Please note that carers tickets will only be issued to those with a valid carer’s card, or, proof that they require a carer.
