DARREN'S GLOVERS ON THE WAY UP

After experiencing two relegations in the space of three seasons, Yeovil Town are now looking up instead of down following their demolition of Crawley Town which moves them into the League Two Play-off zone.

The Glovers were off the mark against the Red Devils on 16 minutes when Tom Eaves turned home a shot from Otis Khan.

In the 28th minute, Eaves turned provider when he knocked ball out of defence from Nathan Smith into the path of Ryan Hedges, who slotted home to double Yeovil's advantage.

Three minutes before the interval, Khan found the target when he finished low into the bottom left corner after connecting with a cut back from Kevin Dawson.

Six minutes after the break, the Glovers extended their lead to four when the reflexes of Crawley keeper Glen Morris denied Hedges but Khan reacted quickest to turn home the rebound.

Yeovil fifth came on 73 minutes when substitute Francois Zoko slotted home following good work from Khan to seal a win that moves the Glovers up to sixth in the table.

Sitting three places above Darren Way's men are Luton Town who are, of course, managed by Way's former teammate Nathan Jones.

If both Yeovil and the Hatters were to finish the campaign in the current respective positions they would be due to meet each other in the Play-off semi-finals.
