Yeovil Town manager Billy Rowley has told the BBC Somerset that club captain Luke McCormick is currently “unavailable for selection“.
The midfielder was not named in the squad for the 4-1 win over Solihull Moors on Friday, despite the Glovers not naming a full bench and was not involved in a strong squad for the Somerset Men’s Premier Cup clash with Radstock Town on Tuesday night.
Speaking to BBC reporter Ed Hadwin on Thursday as part of the pre-match press conference ahead of the trip to Kidderminster Harriers this weekend, the manager said:
Ed Hadwin: “Obviously a lot of fans have been talking about Luke McCormick’s situation, not in the the squad last couple of games. What is happening there?
Billy Rowley: “It was an internal matter that I had with Luke. At the moment, he’s unavailable for selection, and that’s just just my decision, and it’s something that we’ll obviously bring a little bit more clarity on soon. We appreciate the fans are asking a lot of questions. I fully know that they want transparency, and and that will be, you know, given to them in in due course.”
McCormick has six goals for the Glovers this season. It is expected that vice-captain defender Joe Gubbins will continue as captain in his absence.
