Glovers Past

Glovers Past from the Gloverscast is our series of interviews with former Yeovil Town FC players, managers and staff about their time at Huish Park.


If you think back to those heady days between 2001 and 2006, there are plenty of legends to think about. One of those legends, who had a rather non-PG chant from the terrace was Colin Miles. On this episode of the Gloverspast, Dave and Ian welcome the “mentalist” himself to chat about his glorious years at Huish Park.


This episode of the Glovers Past features one of our favourite players of recent season. Grant Smith joins Dave and Ben to chat about his time in between the sticks at Huish Park. Enjoy this one!

On this episode, we speak to Ollie Bassett who, when he made his debut for Paul Sturrock’s side in 2015 was the youngest player to represent the club at EFL level. He made just two first-team appearances for the club but talks about his memories good and bad of that time and a career which has since taken him from Dorchester to being named the Player of the Year in the Canadian Premier League – via New Zealand, Australia and Nuneaton!
