You don’t overly need to comment on a thread dedicated to the subject then really, to be fair. He doesn’t need to be patronised on what he passes comment on, either, to be fair On a thread dedicated to the subject 😂

"Hellier Group have secured the majority shareholding of Yeovil Town Football Club, Yeovil Town Holdings, and the buy-back rights to the stadium and surrounding land, which we intend to reunite with the trading business in the months to come."

I am sure Yeovil fans will be delighted at this news although a year or two to late to save them from falling down the pyramid. I well remember the whole of the west country being delighted for them when they deservedly gained league status but then they had the audacity to overtake us and leave us behind for a while and our opinion of them changed somewhat!! Some of their fans got a bit carried away with their success ,giving it large to us so it is not really surprising that sympathy for their plight is not widespread on here, pleased they seem to have a future now anyway as long as they remember their place in the pyramid and don't rise above their station again!!

Martin Hellier is a local man who has taken over the club. Seems like the future of Yeovil has been secured.

Wasn’t Harvey Greenslade on loan at Chippenham last year.
Chippenham beat Lincoln in FA Cup last year. People say they play good football. Pre season game against Chippenham would be good.

I think Rovers played them pre-season last year. First team played Bath City and the youngsters and fringe players played Chippenham on the same night.

Didn’t we do something similar when playing Cirencester or is that a false memory

Last time we played them in a pre season game it was something daft like 9-0 and Bodin (on trial) scored a hat trick and earned himself a contract. He was superb that night having come back from a serious knee injury.

I certainly cannot remember any 9-0 score but it doesn’t mean it did not happen ok, a quick search shows we played them in 2015 and it was 0-7 but i can’t find anything from Rovers about it.

That was the one, it was a full squad plus trialist’s night. Loads of changes at half time etc… Drove over with Marathon Man Weeksy and came away praying DC would offer him (Bodin) a deal.

I Remember it well, Chippenham finished higher than Bath the previous season getting into the play offs. The First Team lost 3-1 against Bath and the "2nd string" Beat Chippenham 4-1. Harvey Greenslade played in that game and caught the eye of Chippenham who took him on Loan in September.

Once I used to actually respect Yeovil Town, now I couldn't give a toss about them

Blimey.
Im not surprised Hillier lost his rag with Uggla. There appeared to be a lot going on with the owner previous, Uggla and the council.
However Im surprised their own fans have turned on him after he saved them from near extinction last year.
A funny old lot down there.

If their demise hasn't hit them yet, then this Tuesday's first ever league match versus the mighty Weston super Mare should provide them with the evidence. TBF Yeovil have sold out the away terrace some 850 and with Weston averaging 1100 so far this season it should be an interesting match with a sizeable crowd watching. Considering attending rather than watching the Pizza Trophy

For those interested out of the top 7 teams in National League South the order is…. 1st Yeovil 2nd Taunton Town 3rd Bath City 4th Maidstone 5th Worthing 6th Aveley 7th Torquay
Perhaps it’s going to be a local promotion battle. Yeovil starting their comeback, Taunton massively over achieving and Bath having a good season so far. Torquay with some work to do.
