Yeovil Town chairman Prabhu Srinivasan has revealed that the club will be announcing a new manager “very shortly.”
In a video posted on the club’s social media on Tuesday morning, the owner described the boss as “pure energy to do what we need to do.”
On Monday evening, the Huish Park rumour mill cranked in to gear with Billy Rowley, who has impressed at Southern League South leaders Walton & Hersham strongly linked with a move to Somerset. The Surrey club announced his departure yesterday to “to take up a new opportunity higher up the football pyramid.”
In his video, Prabhu said: “The blueprint for being competitive we have not seen on the pitch, what we want to see if playing progressive football with a lot of tactical synergies and getting the players united for what they need to do.
“I have personally gone scouting for managers in the past two weeks because I did not want to go on hearsay and data points, we needed to see for myself that we have a manager who will do what we need to do.
“I am happy to announce we have a new manager on board who will be revealed to you very shortly, he will bring pure energy to what we need to do. I am hoping you will support us through this decision, please keep an open mind. I am glad we had all the curve balls first up rather than later and now you can see what we want to do as owners for the club.”
In his update, the owner thanked Richard Dryden, who has taken charge of first-team since the shock exit of Danny Webb after just 11 days at the end of September, for “all he has done in the interim”. We wait to see what will happen to him and assistant Jerry Gill.
