I agree and now I begin to wonder if that is how Yeovil have been winning their games recently by resorting to ‘bully boy’ tactics, we now seem to be able to cope with those. Gives me a bit of confidence that we can go to their place and win again!

Another good three points yesterday against another in form team. Were Halstead, Armstrong and Felix dropped, rested for tomorrow or missing due to Covid?? With only 2 days rest I would expect all to feature at Eastleigh if available along with Hall, O Connell and Holman. With 3 of our most influential players over 35 changes are inevitable at this time of year. Shame to change a winning team though!

So the keeper will miss next match... The return at Yeovil!

IF it is on. Yeovil have a reputation for calling home games off when it suits.

I agree, it was a red card (albeit soft). What I didnt like was the way Lapslie went down.

Who cares FFS????
He kicked out - its a red card.
If that had gone against us, you'd have been on here moaning about it!

We have been conned enough times in the past and normally end up on the wrong end of these decisions - Lapslie made a meal of it - of course he did, but the player made contact with him so he was entitled to make the most of it.

The missing players were all isolating so unlikely to be featuring at Eastleigh.

Sonny boy’s red card has been rescinded, so he can have another go on Sunday:-

Farcical decision, he kicked out at Lapslie. There’s a bloody video of it.

When did this ever happen in our favour!

It was a red card and no more than Yeovil deserved!

Hopefully we will have Armstrong back

Anyone know whats happen to Perrit?

Yeovil Town can confirm that after an appeal, Sonny Blu Lo-Everton’s red card against Torquay United has been rescinded.

No idea why, he kicked out at Lapslie (who, agreed, made the most of it) but I understood the rules were that kind of behaviour warranted a red card?
