Well, let’s take Saturday, wrap it up in newspaper, and put it out with the rubbish shall we?

It wasn’t great for the Glovers’ first team and a couple of the loanees didn’t have a great time either.

We start in the FA Cup where Will Buse could do nothing to prevent W*ymouth exiting at the hands of Forest Green Rovers. The Vegans ran out 2-0 winners.

Plymouth Parkway lost 4-0 to Worthing in the same competition, Corey Koerner was brought off the bench in the 77th minute, with the game already pretty much done, but a brilliant experience the talisman of the Under 18s. 

Back in National League South action and Jordan Thomas started for Salisbury before being replaced shortly before half time, he was taken off at 1-0 up in their game against Hornchurch.
A stoppage time goal broke their hearts (yep, same) though, the game ending 2-2. We hope Jordan is OK and won’t be out for long.

Dropping into the local divisions, it was a good week for Josh Haskett at Sherbourne; he started in their midweek League Cup clash against AFC Stoneham, a game the Zebras won on penalties, he was also involved from the bench on Saturday as Sherborne recorded a comfortable 5-1 win over Hythe and Dibden.
Joe Crisp – another one of the Under 18s – was also involved in that Midweek win.

Krystian Woods was used from the bench for Street FC who picked up another good win over Ivybridge Town.

Mason Alden was in Welton Rovers’ starting line up for their game against AFC St Austell, whilst Max Dyer was brought off the bench for Oldland Abbotonians.

 


It’s FA Cup Time.

The Glovers are playing a FA Cup to for the XXXth time in their existence (You’ll have to listen to the podcast to hear the answer from the Historical Oracle) and Ben and Dave are joined by another member of the Gloverscast team, Debs Curtis to talk Chesham United and answer the biggest cake-based questions.

Yeovil Town Women, Ladies

Women Secure a Weston-super victory

Match Round Up

Yeovil Town Women 2-1 Weston-super-Mare

Yeovil Town Women earned their second win of the season on Sunday as they overcame local rivals Weston-super-Mare in a tight affair.

In form midfield pair Abbie Carslake and Becky Miles provided the goals for the Glovers once again, as Yeovil propelled themselves into 4th position in the Regen Arable Division One South. 

Paul Knight made two changes to the team who thumped Bideford the previous week, as Orla East and Terri Will replaced Jess Hodge and Katie Evans. Goalkeeper Charlotte Johnson captained the side. 

Yeovil maintained their goalscoring form from the previous week, this was made evident as Abbie Carslake opened the scoring within the opening ten minutes. This was Carslake’s third goal in as many weeks, as she gave the Glovers an early lead, as she did last week.

Despite the Hosts’ early pressure, Weston hit back in the 26th minute courtesy of a penalty kick. Charlotte Johnson was caught behind an opposition forward and bundled her over, giving the referee no choice but to award the spot-kick. Natasha Crew stepped up for the visitors and dispatched the penalty confidently to level it up.

The visitors’ equaliser was cancelled out in just four minutes, as Becky Miles regained Yeovil’s advantage. The midfielder skipped past multiple players before finishing into the far corner of the net, an impressive reaction by Paul Knight’s side. This goal ensured that Miles has been on the scoresheet in every league match so far, she leads the club goalscoring charts with five in the league.

Following Miles’ goal, Weston gave Yeovil another scare as they struck the crossbar from a free kick. 

The teams went in at the break with the score 2-1. 

The conditions at Alvington worsened throughout the second half as the rain poured down, inevitably turning the game into more of a scrap as the half progressed. 

Despite the weather Yeovil were able to hold on to the victory and record their second league victory of the season, putting them on 7 points from 4 matches.

Ref, Referee, Match Official

It’s time to turn our attention to the FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round and the Glovers head to Chesham to play for a spot in the first round proper.

Our officials for the game have been confirmed and it’s Mr Scott Tallis who will take charge.

Mr Tallis has been mainly an EFL Referee for this current season, but is well versed in the National League set up… and refereeing Yeovil Town games.

He’s officiated the Glovers six times, and fairly oddly has awarded us four penalties in that time.

The last time we saw him was not a good experience though, it was the 2-1 defeat to Scunthorpe on the opening day of the 2022/23 season – Chris Hargreaves’ first competitive fixture in charge.

He was also in the middle for a sublime Joe Quigley hat trick against Solihull Moors and Quigley benefitted again when he scored from the spot after Luke Wilkinson had been booted into the air by an Aldershot defender early in the 2021-22 season.

Mr Tallis will be assisted by Grant Taylor, Niall Fenton and Ashley Clarke is on fourth official duties.

Mr Tallis decides that kicking Luke Wilkinson really hard, is a foul. Quite right too.

Yeovil Town now know that they will face Chesham United inn the Fourth Qualifying Round of the FA Cup.

They won their replay on Tuesday by a score line of 4-0 in some pretty awful weather, a week after drawing 0-0 in the first attempt to settle this tie a week ago.

Details, like tickets, travel and a full away guide will hopefully be on their way in the coming days.

Yeovil Town Loanee Raph Araoye has been back with his parent club this Tuesday getting more minutes in for their Under 21s.

Bristol City Under 21s took on their counterparts from QPR and got the full 90 minutes in a 1-0 win.

Araoye was used from the bench at the weekend for the Glovers coming on for Dylan Morgan with 20 minutes to go in the win over Dagenham.

That was his first YTFC appearance since hobbling off against Boston way back on August 31st.

It remains to be seen if he, or any of the other loanees, are available for selection for the FA Cup clash with permission needed from their parent clubs to participate. 

The Gloverscast has been shortlisted for two more Non League Content Awards.
