Not one, but two Yeovil town stars hang up their boots following the conclusion of the 2020/21 season, the final game against Stockport will be the final professional game for both Jimmy Smith and Carl Dickinson.
We’ve waxed lyrical about both on Gloverscast.co.uk and on our Podcast (Search ‘Gloverscast’ wherever you get your audio on demand), but it’s their teammates who have taken to social media to praise the duo who depart for coching roles next season.
Carl Dickinson will be Player/Manager at Hanley Town whilst Jimmy Smith is heading into the coaching set up at Chelsea.
We’ve complied some of the comments Glovers stars past and present have made on Twitter and Instagram
that show, just how much, they will both be missed.
Go well, gents – thanks for all you’ve done at Yeovil.
Big love to @carldickinson_3 and Jimmy smith. 2 amazing people who have made my time at Yeovil. Enjoy your last match day tomorrow. Great careers that you both should be so proud of. Enjoy what comes next❤️
