Luton Town academy head coach Adrian Forbes has hailed the impact a loan spell with Yeovil Town has had on winger Josh Neufville.

The 20-year-old’s season was cruelly cut short after suffering a serious ankle injury in the Glovers’ 4-3 defeat at Altrincham at the weekend, having played 31 times since arriving in December.

But, Forbes, the Championship side’s Head of Academy Coaching and Professional Player Development, said the player’s time in Somerset had been of huge benefit.

Speaking to the club’s website, Forbes said: “It’s one of those situations with Josh where if he’d stayed with me with the under-21s, he’d have developed, but he wouldn’t have got the experience and education he’s had this season at Yeovil.
“To go and play National League football, week in week out, and do as well as he’s done, you know he can do that now.
“We know the answer, and it’s been really pleasing to see the impact he’s had on that Yeovil team.
“Josh has the two things that no-one can coach – power and pace – and he’s taken that from academy, development football playing against lads his own age, into a men’s league where points and livelihoods are at stake.
“So although his time there has ended prematurely, and in a sad way, in the long run he’ll have gained so much from his time down at Yeovil.”

Neufville is the second Luton youngster to have an impact for the Glovers’ this season with defender Gabriel Osho having also impressed during a one-month loan before being recalled at the start of the year.

As Euro 2020 edges ever closer, international managers are picking their squad and Wales Manager Robert Page has picked plenty of former Yeovil Town players in his travelling party for a training camp in Portugal.

Wayne Hennessey (Crystal Palace), Kieffer Moore (Cardiff), Tom Lawrence (Derby)and George Thomas (QPR) are all involved, whilst the official statement also notes that two other ex-YTFC Players are going to be considered once their domestic Play-Off campaigns have concluded; Connor Roberts (Swansea) and Josh Sheehan  have a date with Wembley to get through first.

 

Best of luck to all the Ex-Yeovil Town players on their hunt for squad places at the Euros.

Goalkeeper Adam Smith has been released by his parent club Forest Green Rovers following a season on loan at Huish Park.

The 28-year-old was confirmed as one of four players being released after the Gloucestershire club’s failure to make the League Two play-off final on Sunday.

Defender Chris Stokes, who trained with Yeovil Town for a spell in January 2015 before moving on loan to Coventry City, has also been released along with midfielder Scott Wagstaff and forward Shawn McCoulsky.

With Glovers’ boss Darren Sarll without a recognised goalkeeper, it would be a surprise if he was not interested in bringing Smith to the club permanently.

May 24th 2003

International honours are rarely bestowed upon those at Yeovil Town, let alone winning international tournaments, yet, on this day in 2003 no fewer than five Glovers stars got their hands on the prestigeous… (checks notes)… Four Nations Cup.

The England National Game XI – which would later become rebranded as ‘England C’ – was the international side where players were picked exclusively from Non-League sides.

Yeovil had just been promoted from the Conference and would go on and take their first crack at the Football League later that year, so this tournament represented the last chance for many of these stars to pull on the ‘three lions’.

In total, six Glovers were called up by Paul Fairclough; Chris Weale, Terry Skiverton, Lee Johnson, Darren Way, Kirk Jackson and Nick Crittenden.

Critts would sadly have to pull out of the squad, but the other five all played in a key role in lifting international silverware for their country.

A 1-1 draw vs Scotland, on May 24th 2003, was enough to secure the medals.

Ealier in the tournament, Jackson had scored a Hat Trick vs the Republic of Ireland whilst Way notched vs Wales a few days later.

The squad also contained a few familiar names alongside the Glovers quintet.

Scott Guyett (who we were sure was Australian) was called up from Chester City, Michael Rose represented Hereford whilst Lee Elam and Paul Terry both played their parts in the squad too.

Josh Neufville’s mother has taken to Twitter to thanks all the Glovers’ fans for sending their best wishes to the young winger after he suffered a broken ankle at the weekend.

The 21-year-old, who has been on loan at Huish Park from Luton Town since the end of last year, suffered a broken ankle in the early stages of the 4-3 defeat at Altrincham at the weekend.

He posted on his Instagram story: “This is football. No sob stories. Everyone has a story to tell and this is a part of mine.”

Meanwhile, his life coach and motivational speaker mother, Jackie, thanked supporters for their good wishes.

Congratulations to Sutton United who were today crowned National League Champions for the 2020/21 season.

A 3-0 win over Hartlepool United was enough to put the table toppers five points clear of second place Torquay with just one game remaining.

There are not too many links between the champions and Yeovil Town except winger Rhys Browne, who spent two years at Huish Park, and joined them from Port Vale at the start of the year.

Congratulations to everyone at Sutton United… we’re not jealous at all, one bit… not in the slightest. Nope.

It’s fine, we’re fine.

BBC Somerset’s Yeovil Town commentator Tom Seymour is reporting Yeovil Town have options built in to contracts for utility player Albi Skendi and midfielder Matt Worthington.

Both players are out of contract this summer, but this information would suggest manager Darren Sarll could opt to keep them both for the 2021/22 campaign.

Skendi has been used in near enough every position this season with Sarll praising the fomer Stratford Town man for his flexibility and ability in multiple tactical set-ups.

Worthington took longer to get into the side but was a key part in the 2nd half of the season turnaround and has also helped out in defence when needed.

During the latter stages of the season, striker Joe Quigley has signed a new deal, with confirmation of fellow frontman Reuben Reid‘s extended stay at Huish Park beyond next Saturday also expected.

There were ten games across the National League this Saturday, no fewer than 41 goals, two red cards, only two sides failed to score (Boreham Wood and W*ymouth) and there’s still plenty to play for.

Top of the table Sutton face Hartlepool on Sunday lunchtime, so Torquay had the chance to close the gap on the leaders, a chance they squandered letting a 2 goal lead slip at home to Barnet.

3rd place Stockport, who face the Glovers on the final day, drew as well, 1-1 vs Woking.

Notts County won 3-0 against them lot in Claret and Blue, to give them a guaranteed top seven finish, Wrexham and King’s Lynn played an eight-goal thriller, the Welsh side coming out on top 5-3.

Wins for Chesterfield (2-1 v Dagenham) and Bromley (2-3 v Aldershot) mean the play off picture looks very tight, especially with Eastleigh beating Boreham Wood 1-0.

Eastleigh have a game in hand on the sides above them and could jump into the play-off spots before the final day fixtures.

In midtable, Halifax beat Maidenhead 2-1, Solihull gave Wealdstone a thrashing, winning 4-1 and of course, Yeovil and Altrincham shared 5 goals, with the Glovers coming out on the wrong side of the 3-2 score line.

There are three games this coming Tuesday before the final round of fixtures next sunday where all 11 matches will kick off at 12:30pm.

Yeovil Town boss Darren Sarll has said next weekend’s final game of a turbulent National League season against $tockport County will just be a case of strapping up his battered and bruised side.

Speaking after the 4-3 defeat at Altrincham on Saturday, where the Glovers saw loanee Josh Neufville ruled out with a broken ankle, the manager said the return of Alex Bradley from suspension was the only positive ahead of the return of Paddy Madden to Huish Park.

Sarll told BBC Somerset: “There’s nothing to do other than to try and get them fit and ready to go down the tunnel (against Stockport next weekend) and ready to go, there is no training to be done because in many ways the preparation is irrelevant because of the changes to (the position players are playing in).

“We had nine injured today and two suspended and that will be ten injured and one suspended with Alex Bradley back, and we will have to see if we can roll a few of them out.

“But that is to say that Lawson (D’Ath) recovers, Charlie (Lee) recovers, (Carl) Dickinson recovers. Dicko was running around like he was on a pogo stick at the end there and I have great admiration for that group of players that put themselves in harm’s way again.”

As well as those named by the manager, there are injuries to Jimmy Smith, Josh Staunton, Rhys Murphy, Matt Worthington and youngster Alex John whilst defender Luke Wilkinson will be missing through suspension.

Academy graduate Toby Stephens, Under 18s regular Adam Heaton and young goalkeeper Max Evans were the only three options to Sarll on the bench at Altrincham once Emmanuel Sonupe had replaced the injured Neufville.
