It is back-to-back wins for Yeovil Town after a hard-fought win at Kidderminster Harriers yesterday and, whisper it quitely, but as September comes to an end, we’re inside the play-off places at the top of the National League Premier Division table.

Abby Carter was among the almost 500 Glovers fans at Aggborough and here are her conclusions on the performance.

It’s nice to add a new away day

21 years since we’ve been to Kidderminster and Aggborough is a very welcome addition back to the National League, that felt like proper away day with a great atmosphere in the away end. We travelled well with 481 Glovers’ fans in attendance, and and for those of you wondering if the tea bar is still good after all these years – you will have to ask Dave and Foxy!

We still have one game left in September, but I’m calling the Green Day Rule early

Two months of football and we’ve barely left the play-off places in the National League Premier Division table and even had ten minutes at the top of the league earlier this month. With performances like these, it’s easy to forget this is a two-year project.

You will struggle to see a team playing more attractive football than us in the National League this season, or many more exciting players to watch than Ryan Jones.

Yet again he was a cut above in the first half, he ran the show at Aldershot a few weeks ago and he was in great form at Kiddy yesterday, but after the last week we have to remember – don’t fall in love with footballers.

This team is special.

It’s hard not to feel excited about this season and this team and yesterday was yet another complete team performance. The football is a joy to watch and they are playing like a team that have been together for years, even though the majority were not together last season.

In previous seasons we’ve struggled for leaders and what’s clear is Billy and Darren are building a team of them. This side is full of character and accountability, togetherness, communication, friendship and fight. The relationship between fans and players feels as strong as I can remember and wounds of seasons past are healing.

Johl ‘Goal’ Powell

Ryan Jones, Zain Westbrooke and Brett McGavin all could have seen their name on the scoresheet yesterday (not score board because Kiddy don’t have one), but the job fell to super sub Johl Powell who made it look easy. If this is the sort of player you sign in nightclubs Billy and Jamie, you best get yourselves on a few more nights out because that finish was absolutely fearless.

We probably need a bit more upfront

Whatever has happened between the manager and Luke McCormick, only they will know the truth, but one thing is clear, with our top-scorer rumoured to be on the transfer list, we are going to need to replace those goals.

Impact subs are important and the response since the home defeat to AFC Fylde has been everything we could have asked for – the midfield is magic, Jos Barker has been outstanding in goal, the defence feel like they’ve found themselves and now we need our strikers to join the party

After all defences might win leagues, but goals are going to be needed for the play-offs and now we’re here, it would be really nice to stay there.

Yeovil Town manager Billy Rowley praised his side’s ability to win in a physical battle after seeing them inflict the first home defeat of a the season on Kidderminster Harriers on Saturday.

The Glovers were made to work for their three points which came courtesy of a cool finish from substitute Johl Powell with 16 minutes remaining to seal a 1-0 win.

The result was the first home defeat inside 90 minutes for the hosts, who are managed by former Glovers’ midfielder Paul Wotton, since November 2025, and that fact was not lost on Rowley after the match.

Speaking to BBC Somerset reporter Ian Randall after the game, he said: “They were really tough opponent and we knew it was going to be that way. I think they’ve got the fourth highest average attendance, so I thought the crowd made for a really intense affair. It was difficult to get information onto the lads, hence why I’ve lost my voice a little bit, but it was a game of one or two moments that have that have decided the outcome. I’m so proud of the boys to win in this fashion.

“It was by no means our prettiest performance and there is a lot of stuff that that we’re going to review and try and improve on. There were moments from our goalkeeper, there’s last-ditch blocks, Johl Powell coming again on for the second week in a row with a late a late winner, so like loads of positives to take from it.”

It was another moment for Powell who came off the bench to score two late goals to put the gloss on a 4-1 home win over Solihull Moors last weekend. This time the midfielder came on with 67 minutes gone and seven minutes later he ran on to a through ball from striker Slavi Spasov, shrugged off Kidderminster defender Angus MacDonald and coolly slotted the winner.

Rowley was full of praise for the player who he brought in from his former club Walton & Hersham in the summer, saying: “I’ve seen Johl do that since he was 12-years-old. He’s so hungry for a goal and when he can sniff a moment where he could go one-on-one with the goalie, there was no way he’s going down under pressure from the defender. He is a superb finisher. He was playing two leagues below this last season (at Walton & Hersham) but he got 22 goals and that finish today shows what he can do in front of goal. There is a lot to digest from that game, but I think essentially it goes down to a good performance from Jos Barker in toal, a really resilient defensive display, and one really top finishing moment.”

There were moments in the first half where Yeovil had opportunities to find a break through, but they found themselves up against a resilient Kidderminster side who had the best home record in the division ahead of kick-off.

Rowley added: “I think Kidderminster’s game plan was probably to (frustrate us). They changed shape to a degree today and tried to press us man-for-man a little bit. I think at times we included Jos (Barker) in our build-up pretty well and when we did that we looked quite calm and composed, but when we forgot to do that, it was more difficult to build. It was a really ‘bitty’ game, there was a lot of stop-and-starts. They’re a really physical team, a difficult team to play against, but I think we dealt with it well.

“At half-time I told them that I believed in them, but asked them to do the small things that no-one dreams of doing as a kid like organising throw-ins and quick restarts. That is what top teams do to win games and if we can improve those small nuts and bolts, we can be a top side.”

The matches keep coming thick and fast with another newly-promoted side, Worthing, who were champions of the National League South last season, visiting Huish Park on Tuesday night followed by Boston United who come to Somerset next Saturday.

Worthing picked up a 2-1 home win over FC Halifax Town on Saturday and are unbeaten in their last five matches whilst Boston went down 1-0 at home to AFC Fylde.

Rowley said: “They are two teams that I think are going to be again really tough opponents. Worthing have been flying this season and have a top class manager in Adam Hinshelwood. That will be our first focus and then we’ll move on to Boston after that. But those will be two games that we’ll be ready for and start preparing for as soon as we get on the coach today.”

Luke McCormick Update Corner:

Ian Randall:  Do you think the McCormick situation will have unravelled and resolved itself by Tuesday?

​Billy Rowley: Potentially. Like I said, I’ll update everyone in due course when we have some like real transparency for you and an answer for you.

IR: For those of us who have never been in a dressing room, if there is a disagreement between a player and a manager, how does that not impact on the team?

BR: I do not know what the rumour is because that is not really what has been said. But, like I say, we will deal with this internally and we will give the supporters the clear answers that they deserve when we have them.

Substitute Johl Powell grabbed a late winner to earn Yeovil Town three points from a hard fought win at Kidderminster Harriers.

The midfielder, who had replaced Zain Westbrooke in the 67th minute, ran on to a through ball from striker Slavi Spasov four minutes after coming on and coolly slotted home the winner.

The victory inflicted a first defeat of the season on the home side, managed by former Glovers’ midfielder Paul Wotton, and moved Yeovil up to sixth in the National League Premier Division table with ten games on the board.

First half


The opening exchanges fell in to a familiar pattern of both sides exchanging attacks without making any real impact, but early opportunities fell the way of Yeovil. First James Daly showed great pace down the left side and got a shot away which was blocked before Ryan Jones pass pick out Zain Westbrooke who tried to lob the keeper but his effort went wide.

But Kidderminster can claim the best chance of the opening 15 minutes after Callum Stewart’s ball from the left side picked out Callum Dolan on the far post and the former Torquay United man was only denied by a sensational block from the feet of Yeovil keeper Jos Barker.

First half action at Kidderminster Harriers

The magic feet of Glovers’ winger Ryan Jones almost unlocked the Kidderminster defence on 21 minutes having picked the ball up in the middle of the park, he dribbled his way past three of tackles and got in a shot with clipped the post on its way wide.

As the half wore on, Jones got more and more creative and had the home side’s defenders on toast on numerous occasions. Indeed, some of tue inter play between Westbrooke, Jones and Brett McGavin was a joy to behold. We really can move it.

Half-time: Kidderminster Harriers 0 Yeovil Town 0

Second half

Kidderminster definitely came out for the second half determined to impose themselves more on the game and they were definitely the side in the ascendancy for the opening 20 minutes. However, despite their pressure and possession, there was nothing to call Barker in to action.

Yeovil captain defender Joe Gubbins, who picked up a booking a minute after the restart, was replaced by Ben Radcliffe. But the first real opening came from another mouth-watering move which began with a great forward run from wing-back Jordan Norville-Williams and ended with Westbrooke picking out McGavin inside the box after 65 minutes but the midfielder’s effort was well blocked by Kiddy defender David Davis.

Barker was called in to action again on 71 minutes when Dolan played a deep cross in to striker Lewis Walker whose header was superbly palmed away by the young keeper. A save that Jed Ward would have been proud of.

But three minutes later, Yeovil took the lead. Spasov did well in a physical altercation, turned his man and fed a ball through to the on-running Johl POWELL. The midfielder, on as a substitute for Westbrooke just seven minutes earlier, had time to think about it but showed no fear to coolly slot past the keeper in front of the travelling support.

Kidderminster were not going to give up easy and Barker did well to get down low to a strike from Stewart who ran at the Glovers’ goal and fired in a shot from the edge of the box with ten minutes remaining.

With seven minutes remaining, Yeovil made a treble substitution with Mason Obeng, Ste Walker and Charlie Lennon, replacing Daly, Spasov and Jones.

As the game pushed in to five minutes of injury time, there was the almost inevitable fears of a conceding a late goal with Kiddy pressing for a leveller. But, as the home supporters streamed out of Aggborough, a Ben Crompton effort dragged past the post was as near as they came.

The final whistle was met by a huge roar from what had been a vocal away end all afternoon and there was a real passion in the celebrations of the Yeovil players – this had not been the most attractive performance of the season, but they knew they had dug one out to pick up three more points.

Yeovil are back on the road this weekend as they travel to the midlands to take on the highflying Kidderminster Harriers at 3pm on Saturday.

FORM…

YEOVIL TOWN

The Glovers had a couple of weeks where things weren’t going their way: a tough loss to Southend, a hammering at Fylde, and a gutsy draw against Aldershot.

However, last time out for Yeovil, it felt like a performance we’d become accustomed to during our early-season purple patch. A 4-1 win at Huish Park under the Friday night lights gave home fans a reason to cheer, even if a ‘tactical’ change had us all worried.

Maybe we should actually be more worried about playing on a Saturday afternoon, with no win during the Saturday 3pm kickoff window. That being said we have only lost one, as we have drawn the other two. Fourth time lucky is a saying…right?

KIDDERMINSTER HARRIERS

Most of the time, newly promoted teams like to bed into the league, consolidate and just try to survive their first season up. Kidderminster are bucking the trend, however, and fair play to them.

Since losing their opening game of the season, the Harriers have been on a roll, with five wins and three draws from their following eight fixtures. That run of results puts them third in the league, with just Boreham Wood and Southend above them.

Last weekend, their three-game winning streak ended as Kiddie travelled to Surrey and played out a 0-0 draw with Woking. The Harriers have a habit of winning after a draw though, so the Glovers need to be watch out for a home side looking to keep their unbeaten record going.

KEY PLAYERS…

YEOVIL TOWN – JOS BARKER

Time for the goalkeeper to get his flowers this season. Barker had the unfortunate job of coming into the squad this summer after all Glovers were treated to the brilliance of Jed Ward last term. Some very tough boots to fill. Has the 22-year-old filled them yet? Probably not. Will he? It’s too early to say, but what isn’t too early to say is that we have another superb keeper on our hands.

The first thing you’ll notice about the goalie is his size. He is built like he should be playing in the front row for Bath, which undoubtedly gives him a presence in his box. He also stops the ball from going in the back of the net, which is the most important thing. With a 71% save rate this season, he has definitely earned us a couple of extra points.

If there is one criticism you could have, it’s that we have only kept one clean sheet this campaign, and ultimately, that is on the whole defence and not just Barker. At such a young age, let’s hope we have found our new number one for the next couple of years.

KIDDERMINSTER HARRIERS – LEWIS WALKER

For the Harriers, it’s at the other end of the pitch where their real difference-maker plays. Lewis Walker joined in the summer after leaving Braintree. After being dropped following a poor showing in his first game against Hornchurch, the 27-year-old made amends when boss Paul Wotton started him in the next fixture against Aldershot, where he bagged his first goal. Since then, it has been non-stop scoring for the forward, with four goals in his next six games and an assist to boot.

The previous two games have been a bit quieter for Walker, but it isn’t for a lack of trying, with two very good match ratings in both games. He is also your classic frontman, getting into the penalty area and finishing his chances, with all five of his goals coming from no further than 12 yards out. Statistically, Walker is Kidderminster’s most prolific player this season as well, bagging a goal every 115 minutes. The Yeovil defenders will have to be wary of Walker in and around the box.

THE GAFFER…

The gaffer for Kidderminster is none other than former Glover Paul Wotton. The former midfielder made six appearances for Yeovil in 2011 during a loan spell from Southampton, before joining the club permanently at the end of that season. He would go on to play 39 games during the 2011/12 season.

The 49-year-old is best known for his time at Plymouth Argyle, where he would start and end his playing career. During his first spell at Home Park, Wotton played over 400 games across 14 years before leaving to join Southampton. Wotton would rejoin the Pilgrims in 2012, making 52 appearances before retiring in 2015.

Paul Wotton as manager of Truro.

As a manager, the ex-Glover joined Truro in 2019, where he stayed for five years before joining Torquay United. Wotton would be in the job for two years but was sacked after a 5-0 defeat to Chelmsford, before joining the Harriers in May this year. In the two games he has faced Yeovil, he has lost both.

LAST TIME WE MET…

The two sides last met over 25 years ago on the 16th April 2005. It was an away day for Yeovil that day as well, and the points were split in front of the 4,000 in attendance. Arron Davies was on the score sheet for the Glovers that day.

DON’T I KNOW YOU?

There are no players in the current Harriers squad who have played for the Glovers.

However, as mentioned above, Paul Wotton is in the dugout for Kiddie. The former Glover first made an appearance for Yeovil in the 2010/11 season after joining on loan from Southampton. Wotton rejoined the Glovers at the end of that term and would go on to play 39 times in his only season at Huish Park.

THE MAN IN THE MIDDLE…

Midfielder Johl Powell has said he is ready to take his chance for Yeovil Town when the opportunities arrive.

The 25-year-old, who was one of three players to follow manager Billy Rowley from his former club Walton & Hersham in the summer, scored twice in a six-minute substitute appearance at the end of last Friday’s 4-1 home win over Solihull Moors.

He has started just once with his other seven appearances in green-and-white coming off the substitutes’ bench.

Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Ed Hadwin on Thursday ahead of the weekend’s trip to Kidderminster Harriers, Powell said he believes manager Rowley knows what he can offer.

He said: “I have known (the manager) for a while now and he knows what I can do and when I get the opportunities I have to keep showing what I can do, score goals and hopefully that will get me more game time. 

“It was a good win (against Solihull), we obviously had not won for a few games, so it was important we got that win and now we are looking ahead of to (Kidderminster) on Saturday. The boys are in good spirits and we are looking forward to it.

“When you look at our squad we obviously want to be in and around those play-off places come the end of the season, if we can stay there for as long as we can we give ourselves the best chance possible. Whether I am starting or coming off the bench, I am going to make sure I am ready for whatever minutes I get.“
