Yeovil Town‘s final pre-season friendly against AFC Bournemouth Under-23s has been cancelled due to cases of COVID-19 in the Glovers’ squad.

The club confirmed the match at Huish Park on Saturday was off “with the safety of both teams in mind ahead of their return to competitive football.”

All tickets will be refunded by the club. If you have a ticket, contact  the ticket office on ticketoffice@ytfc.net or call 01935 847888.

The cancellation follows the decision to call off Tuesday’s friendly with Southampton B due to COVID-19.

All of which means – unless something else is arranged – there are no further fixtures until the opening day trip to Wrexham on August 21.

Tickets are now on sale for most of Yeovil Town‘s opening matches of the season – except for the opening day fixture at big-spending Wrexham.

The club have confirmed tickets are on sale for the opening six National League fixtures at Huish Park against King’s Lynn Town, FC Halifax Town, Altrincham, Maidenhead United, Notts County and Woking which takes you through until the end of October for you forward planners.

For full details and to purchase tickets, visit the club’s website – here.

Tickets for the Glovers’ second away fixture at Aldershot Town on August Bank Holiday Monday are also now on sale on the Shots’ website – here.

It is worth noting that no tickets will be available on the turnstiles, so make sure you don’t turn up without one.

There are seated and standing tickets available for travelling supporters which are priced the same, as follows:

Adult: £20
Senior (65 years+): £16
Disabled: £16
Junior (17 years and under): £7

We are still waiting to hear from Wrexham about their plans to house away supporters for the opening day fixture in North Wales a week on Saturday.

It appears over-running building work at the Racecourse Ground is causing the delay.

However, if you do want to book a trip to the match, the Green & White Supporters’ Club are taking bookings – see here.

Ex-Glover Gabby Rogers has signed on the dotted line at Torquay United after impressing on trial.

Rogers scored against Torquay for Tiverton last week, before scoring an impressive goal for Torquay on Saturday.

Speaking about the return to his boyhood club Rogers told the club’s official website: “It’s wonderful, it’s great to be back. Obviously I started out here when I was eleven, and was here four or five years until they had to shut the academy down, so it’s great to be back and I just want to get as many games in as possible, and see what happens from there.”

He joins Gary Johnson at Torquay who told the official website: “We were aware of him at Yeovil, and we were aware of him going to Tiverton to keep fit and get a couple of games, so we decided to watch him, but we had already arranged then that he would come in training after the Tiverton game. He didn’t have to impress, but he did.

“He came into training and impressed everybody. He looked the part, of course we played him in the game, and he showed in the game what he could do in training. We looked back at some of his stuff, and we thought that he was something different, something that we could use and nuture, and bring out his potential. If you can do that, you’ve got a player.

“He also comes from good stock. He was born in Torquay and was at Torquay as a young lad, and his dad played for Plymouth. He’s ready now – he’s gone beyond being a youngster, he’s 20 and needs regular games at a good level.”

Rogers left the Glovers at the end of the 2020/21 season.

Over-running building work at Wrexham’s Racecourse Ground has delayed tickets going on sale for the club’s opening day fixture with Yeovil Town.

Responding to an email from a Glovers’ fan trying to get information on tickets for the match on August 21, club secretary Geraint Parry said the work may lead to the closure of part of the ground for the Dragons’ opening two fixtures.

The issue is caused by work to the Wrexrent Stand which houses 2,800 home fans behind one to the stadium’s goals.

Wrexham, who were taken over by Hollywood superstars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney at the end of last season, recently capped season ticket sales due to “unprecedented demand.”

However, what we do know is that the Green & White Supporters’ Club will be laying on travel to North Wales. Read more – here.

Former Yeovil Town midfielder, Alex John has found a new home in Wales after signing for Merthyr Town.

We reported recently that he had been on trial in Scotland with Dundee FC, but has opted for a move to the Welsh side instead.

A regular in the first team squad for the last few seasons at Huish Park he failed to make an competitive appearances and spent time on loan at Hull City.

All the best at Merthyr, Alex.

 

Pre-season is underway for both the senior and junior sidest at Huish Park and the Yeovil Under 18s lost 2-1 to Paulton Rovers in their first fixture of the new campaign.

No details were given regardling team line ups, but the score ended up 2-1 to Paulton with the Glovers’ only goal coming from Korey Andrew.

Andrew is a new name to keep an eye on, the Under18s would likely have been without Ollie Haste who was with the first team for the game against Weston super-Mare.

Yeovil Town‘s upcoming friendly against Southampton B has been called off following confirmation of a “number” of positive Covid-19 tests.

All individuals with that positive test have been placed into isolation as per current guidelines and further information regarding the knock on to the Bournemouth U23s friendly will be announced in due course.

Everyone at the Gloverscast wishes all those who have tested positive a swift recovery.

Yeovil boss Darren Sarll was disappointed with his side’s “garbage” performance at Weston-super-Mare this afternoon.

Tom Knowles salvaged a draw with a vintage strike (don’t fall in love with footballers, kids) but Sarll was unhappy at the defensive aspect of the afternoon.

“We’ve probably given away  more chances today than we did in the other three games combined, which is the disappointing thing for me.

“I was just disappointed with our defending intent today. I thought it was poor, we let people through. It was far too easy to play in behind us, far too easy to get set plays. I think we gave away seven corners in the first half from eight balls in behind the fullbacks. I think there’s lots to be done,” said Sarll.

Never one to not look for positives, Sarll did say that playing badly and picking up a draw is a good quality to have.

He said: “One thing I did like, was that we’re going to play badly and take points this year. And that’s a good quality to have. Normally you try and attribute those qualities to teams that win leagues and trophies. So I quite liked it that we kept it to one nil and it doesn’t matter that it’s Weston. They’ve got lots and lots of football league appearances in their team.”

“That’s been our first real tough week and it seems to have beaten a few in terms of the energy levels and physical capacities,” he added.
