How great was it to be back at Huish Park? On this episode of the Gloverscast, the Plebs discuss the boardroom changes at Huish Park and what that could mean going forward. We also go over the late heartbreak against Carlisle – but with reasons for optimism – and we take your GCQs.

With huge thanks to Tim Hubble, Dorset Jim and Stoney and Andrew for their voice notes.


Welcome to another edition of the Gloverscast’s mini matchday episode, Foot in the Opposition Camp! This week, we are looking ahead to Yeovil Town’s first match of the season at Huish Park against title favorites, Carlisle United.

To get the inside scoop on our upcoming opponents, we are joined by Lee from the Carlisle United podcast, the Brunton Bugle.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

  • Opening Weekend Woes: A breakdown of Carlisle’s 3-2 loss on the opening weekend, highlighting their wastefulness in front of goal during the first half and a confusing second-half drop-off following substitutions.
  • Preseason Struggles & Injuries: How a stuttering preseason with only four full matches played has left the squad looking fatigued. We also discuss a growing injury list impacting key players like Feeney and Armstrong.
  • Managerial Shifts: Thoughts on the managerial transition from Mark Hughes to Rob Elliot, including how the team is adapting to the new style of play he brought over from Gateshead.
  • Tactical Tweaks & Player Highlights: An analysis of Elliot’s tactical decisions, such as utilising left-back Cameron Harper in the midfield. A spotlight is also placed on the impressive attacking work rate, yet notable defensive vulnerabilities, of Archie Davies down the right side.
  • Title Expectations: A candid conversation on whether Carlisle United can truly live up to their status as title favorites, amidst real concerns about their squad depth, defensive solidity, and the pressure to perform.


A ‘winning draw’ to kick the season off at Scunthorpe, Ben Dave and Andy Craig ask has any group of fans ever been quite so pleased with a 1-1 draw and conceding a 90th minute equaliser?

We’re not sure, but we’ll talk about it all, we have an exclusive post-match chat with Goal Scoring Spud-man Mason Obeng and we answer your GCQs


It’s the first foot in the opposition camp of the new season! In this episode, we preview the long journey from Somerset to face Scunthorpe United in the opening game of the National League Premier Division. We are delighted to welcome back Barra from the Iron Hour podcast to get the inside track on the opposition ahead of the match.


On the eve of our opening away day against Scunthorpe United, we are thrilled to welcome the Manager Billy Rowley and Assistant Manager Darren Simpson to the Gloverscast for the first time.

As we gear up for a highly anticipated National League campaign, Billy and Darren sit down with us to discuss everything from their tactical philosophy and summer recruitment to the importance of building a unified, ambitious dressing room.

Here is what you can expect in this week’s episode:

  • The Managerial Dynamic: Billy and Darren pull back the curtain on their day-to-day partnership, detailing how they divide training sessions, handle tough player conversations and if they ever disagree with one another…

  • Tactical Philosophy & Identity: A deep dive into the style of football the duo wants to bring to Huish Park. Expect insights on possession-based control, aggressive attacking, and the non-negotiable trait of being incredibly hard to beat.

  • Summer Recruitment Strategy: With 15 new faces in the squad, the management team discusses the deliberate strategy behind the overhaul.

  • Pre-Season Reflections: An honest assessment of the pre-season campaign. Billy and Darren discuss the physical demands, the challenge of embedding new tactical ideas, and the process of building team chemistry.

  • Building Character: Why assembling a squad of players with high ambition, character, and a genuine desire to climb the leagues is just as important as technical ability on the pitch.


We’re back from a month off over the summer – and we’re back with a bang!

If there is someone who has had a front row seat in Yeovil Town’s history in recent years, it is Matt Worthington.

Now you can hear it all in his own words:

From arriving on loan and quickly dropping out of the Football League;

Adapting to life back in non-League and the challenges of the COVID pandemic;

Off-the-field shenanigans – takeovers, failed takeovers, not getting paid and a managerial merry-go-round to make your head spin;

But also amazing matches, silencing the crowd at Weymouth, some special team-mates and, of course, THAT trophy lift.

It’s a long episode, but there was a lot to talk about!
