After several difficult years the future is beginning to look brighter for Yeovil Town after SU Glovers have taken stewardship of the Glovers.
The company, headed by Matt Uggla, who is listed as a director along with his mother Julie-Ann, have stated that they will be making all major decisions at Huish Park and will be taking over former chairman Scott Priestnall's 80% majority shareholding of the club, with incumbant director Stuart Robins retained his 20% stake. Former England Rugby Union international Paul Sackey is set to take on a role with the club.
Both Uggla and Sackey were unveiled to the Huish Park faithful on Saturday, which saw former manager Darren Sarll return to Yeovil for the first time with his Woking side, who returned home to Surrey with all three points with a 1-0 victory.
Funds have already been made available to current Glovers boss Mark Cooper to bring new players to the club. Jordan Stevens arrived from Cooper's former club Barrow on Friday and he has since been joined by Scott Pollock, a prolific goal scoring midfielder from National League North side Boston United, and striker Reo Griffiths joins on loan from Doncaster Rovers.
Nevertheless, while there has been a flurry of new arrivals, one of the most important asset that could potentially have in their possession is having Mark Cooper as manager.
With a promotion from the National League on his CV from earlier in his career with Forest Green Rovers in the 2016-17 season, one of Cooper's long term objectives could be to add a second one to that list.
