Yeovil Town’s new manager Richard Dryden has called on the club’s supporters to unite behind the team as they prepare to start life after Danny Webb’s short-lived reign as manager.

The experienced coach was handed the job following the departure of Webb on Monday after just 11 days in charge and he takes charge of his first match tonight at Aldershot Town, the club he left in the summer to come to Huish Park.

Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Josh Perkins ahead of kick-off, he said: “It is a very big challenge, we have all got to come together as a group and that is everyone. I am telling you now, it has to be the fans and the social media, we have all got to get together because it is another start, if we are all going in different directions it is going to be bloody hard.

The players on the pitch are having a go and I will play players who want to have a go for Yeovil. If they don’t want to, we will move them on or they will go and sit on the bench. We want players who are going to play for the club, score goals and defend with their lives like they did for the four games I was in charge.”

He has made three changes from the 1-0 defeat at Tamworth on Saturday, which will go down in the club’s record books as Webb’s only one as first-team manager, with forward players Junior Morias, Tahvon Campbell and new loan signing Andrew Oluwabori in the starting XI.

He confirmed that frontman Aaron Jarvis, who came off with ten minutes remaining at Tamworth, was unavailable with a knee injury and that midfielder Brett McGavin had not recovered from the back injury which ruled him out at the weekend.
