Captain Jake Wannell says his Yeovil Town team-mates hope the 1-1 home draw with Carlisle United has put an end to a poor run of form which saw lose three in a row.
The Glovers took the lead through a Tahvon Campbell goal after 15 minutes at Huish Park before the visitors, who had a 100% record in October before the game, levelled through substitute Harvey McAdam with 22 minutes remaining.
The central defender made his 100th appearance for the club in all competitions having joined from Taunton Town in June 2023.
Speaking to BBC Somerset’s Mark Stillman after the game, Wannell said: “It was a good point in the end and I think before the game we would have taken that result considering we have lost a few games on the bounce, so it stops a bit of a rot. It was a game of two halves, I think we dominated the first half and they dominated the second half so I think we will both take a point and move on.
“The last 20 minutes we were in the trenches with our backs against the wall and I think that is when we think about taking a point and getting out of there.”
Manager Richard Dryden lined up with a defensive back four with Wannell paired alongside regular partner Morgan Williams and new signings Michee Efete and George Nurse playing as traditional full-backs.
Wannell added: “We have had a busy week working on the back four again, obviously we have had a few managers now who wanted a three, so it was a bit of a transition to go back to a four. But (manager Richard Dryden and assistant manager Jerry Gill) have done really well this week and dialled it in nicely. I think we will continue working on it.“
Think we need to win more games to get out of this national league we have been in this league to long dig hard to get out
