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.

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.

It was another wild week in Yeovil Town history. Out of nowhere, Billy Rowley was appointed the new manager and the Glovers were sprung into a new era – again. On this episode, we welcome Yeovil Town owner and chairman (and Gloverscast debutant) Prabhu Srinivasan to the podcast to talk about his family’s ownership so far. Enjoy!
