For the second time in the space of two weeks, Yeovil Town find themselves without a fixture as their League One encounter, which was due to take place tomorrow, fell victim to the cold snap.
The meeting between the two sides would have seen Glovers' boss Terry Skiverton go head-to-head with one of his predecessors Gary Johnson for the first time in his managerial career.
With the Glovers sitting second bottom in the League One table, Skivo has admitted he feels the personal pressure to get results and that Yeovil can get those results by sticking together.
This view is perhaps not surprising given the fact that Skivo was a totemic figure in the Glovers' rise from non-league football to establishing themselves as a League One outfit. Indeed he skippered Yeovil to FA Trophy, Conference title and League Two title glory, under Johnson, in his 11-year playing stint at Huish Park.
One difference between the current campaign and the previous one for the Glovers is the impact made by the loan signings that Skivo has made. Last season Steven Caulker, Jon Obika, Ryan Mason, Shaun MacDonald, Alex McCarthy and Gavin Williams all made positive contributions during their temporary stints in South Somerset.
This time around, many of Skivo's crop of loan players have since returned to their parent clubs including Luke Freeman, Rob Kiernan and Cameron Stewart who were borrowed from Arsenal, Watford and Manchester United respectively.
MacDonald and Gavin Williams both returned to Huish Park on temporary deals with Williams due to leave again shortly before the transfer window as his parent club Bristol City look to possibly cash in on him before his contract at Ashton Gate expires. Meanwhile MacDonald's deal currently runs out on January 3rd.
Skivo has been busy bringing in new loanees including Robert Philip from Chelsea, Northern Ireland midfielder Ivan Sproule from Bristol City and Ian Parkes from Leicester City.
If any of them are looking for inspiration for what a loan spell at Yeovil Town then they need look no further than Steven Caulker who is continuing the fine form he displayed at Huish Park at Bristol City.
Caulker will spend the remainder of the season with the Robins who have pulled themselves clear of the Championship relegation zone since his arrival. His performances at Ashton Gate have seen him called into Stuart Pearce's England Under-21 squad and he made his debut last month in a friendly against Germany's Under-21 side.
