Yeovil Town’s home game against Braintree this coming Saturday will be officiated by a fairly regular face around Huish Park.
Elliot Swallow has officiated no fewer than 11 Glovers’ games, in fact only Wealdstone (12) have seen him in the middle more.
None of those 11 games have come this season though, Mr Swallow has issued 31 yellows (and turned two of them into reds) across six games at this level this season.
He did referee us twice last season, both in local derby games, a 2-0 home win over Bath City and a 3-1 away win at Torquay. In the former, Messrs, C Cooper, Wannell, Morgan and Whittle all saw their names taken, whilst Whittle and Cooper (M) were cautioned down at Plainmoor in a game where a chap called Brett McGavin scored a heck of a goal from long range … I wonder what happened to him?
Mr Swallow has sent off one Yeovil player in his career, Chiori Johnson saw red for two bookings in a home defeat to Dorking Wanderers towards the end of the doomed 2022/23 season. Mark Cooper was also booked in that one.
Kevin Howick and Stuart Kane are on flag duties with Phillip Eddie is on dug out watch this Saturday.
