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.

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.

In: Latest Yeovil Town News, Loan Watch

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.

Yeovil Town Under-18s got their Western Counties Floodlit League season underway with a 3-1 win at Clevedon Town on Monday night.

The young Glovers took an early lead when Morgan Alexander put them ahead after just three minutes before Joe Crisp doubled their advantage two minutes before half-time.

Crisp added his second and Yeovil’s third from the penalty spot following a foul on George Geraghty with 68 minutes on the clock before the home side pull a consolation goal back two minutes from the end.

The result looks even more impressive when you consider Clevedon remain top of the Premier Division table even after the defeat. However, the amount of games played by teams in the division differs wildly with this being Yeovil’s first match and their opponents on Monday having now played six times.

Jordan Young has joined National League South side Torquay United for an undisclosed fee, both clubs have confirmed tonight.

The attacker has left Huish Park after finding minutes on the pitch hard to come by this season in a widely-anticipated move to Devon following comments by manager Mark Cooper after the weekend’s 3-1 home win over Maidenhead United on Saturday.

He told BBC Somerset reporter Ian Randall: “We have had an offer for Jordan, so we are discussing that and we will take some time over the weekend to consider that. All I will say is we have to keep evolving we have to keep making the squad better and make sure everyone who comes here is desperate to play for us and all I will say is trust what we are doing.”

In its statement about the departure on Monday, the club said: “The club extends its gratitude to Jordan for his efforts and contributions while at Yeovil Town and wishes him every success in the future.”

Torquay manager and former-Glovers’ midfielder Paul Wotton said: “Jordan is a player who excelled for Yeovil last season in the National League South, and he’s been very, very good this season for Yeovil in the National League. He’s a player who brings creativity, pace and quality to the squad.”

The 25-year old joined from Chippenham Town in the 2022/23 season and despite being relegated with the Glovers was instrumental in our return to the National League Premier at the first time of asking.

Young leaves as a National League South champion and for that, we are forever grateful.

All the best at Torquay, Jordan, thanks for sharing that wand of a left foot with us.

Both Aaron Jarvis and Dom Bernard are going to miss the game against Southend United after picking up their fifth yellow cards of the season.

The FA’s ‘Naughty Portal’ has updated to show both the front man and central defender have an unexpected Saturday off. 

Jarvis was cautioned on 28 minutes whilst Bernard had his name taken just five minutes before the end of the clash against Maidenhead.

Officially, the fifth bookings have been listed as “Persistent Infringement” for Jarvis and “Dissent” for Bernard.

With Morgan Williams also suspended for the game after his sending off against Tamworth it could leave the Glovers light on numbers at the back particularly.

Both will be available again for the home game against Halifax Town on November 16th. 

Both Charlie Cooper and Frank Nouble are also walking 4-booking tight ropes, the cut off for a single game ban after five yellow cards is three league games away.
