Perfect Plympton Pip Past Glovers
Yeovil Town women suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of table toppers Plympton, who maintained their perfect record despite a gallant performance from the Glovers.
Paul Knight made three changes to the side who thrashed Honiton last time out before the Christmas break, as Abbie Vernon, Becky Miles and Terri Will returned to the starting eleven.
Despite scoring three goals and taking the game to the unbeaten visitors, Yeovil’s brave performance did not earn anything from the affair, with Plympton taking all three points. A brace from Samantha Metters as well as goals from Dionne Igalawuye and Elsa Finnegan
ensured that the visitors took all three points back to Devon and strengthened their bid for promotion to the Premier Division of the Regen Arable South West League system. Yeovil’s goal-scorers are unknown.

Yeovil Town Women now look ahead to their next league encounter as they travel to the Bob Lucas Stadium for a matchup against rivals W*ymouth. With W*ymouth sitting second in the league, one place above the Glovers, Yeovil will be desperate to make a statement on the
Dorset coast.
