New Yeovil Town manager Billy Rowley has said he wants to evaluate his squad of players before he looks at bringing new faces in to the squad at Huish Park.

The boss has made three changes to his starting XI for his first match in charge of the Glovers with striker Tahvon Campbell, midfielder Brett McGavin and defender Kyle Ferguson all brought in to face Boston United at Huish Park.

Junior Morias and Finn Cousin-Dawson, who started the goalless draw at Morecambe seven days ago, are both on the bench but there was no place for Alex Whittle or loanees Andrew Oluwabori or Leo Ramirez-Espain.

Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Josh Perkins before the game, Rowley said: “There was talk about getting new players in the building bit I always wanted to evaluate the boys I have here first and build a relationship with them first and then take it from there. I like lads to enjoy training, enjoy the games, that is how I work.

We have been working a lot on our build-up work this week to secure build up better and find opportunities to get in the opposition’s final third with a bit more control and organisation. Hopefully we see that today. I might have overrun the boys a little, but I think the running and energy should be there for them.

The 43-year-old was appointed as manager replacing Richard Dryden on Tuesday having left his former club Southern League South leaders Walton & Hersham on Monday and had two training sessions with his squad.

He said: “It has been a hectic week, but an enjoyable one. My first observation is they are a great group of lads, I only got on the training pitch with them on Thursday and Friday and they have worked so hard. It has been difficult to get through all the work we wanted to get through in the time we had, but we are pretty happy with what we have got here. Time will tell, but we are looking forward to 3pm now.”
