Football: On this day in Yeovil Town’s history on August 14, 1999

ON this day in history on August 14, 1999, Yeovil Town lost 5-0 at Scarborough in the Conference.

A crowd of 2,005 was at the match – the first of the 1999-2000 campaign.

One player who made his competitive debut for Yeovil Town was a certain summer signing by the name of Terry Skiverton.

Who would have thought on this day (August 14) 14 years ago what an amazing contribution Skivo would make to the club’s history.

He went on to make 382 appearances for Yeovil from 1999 to 2009 and scored 44 goals.

He led the club as captain to the FA Trophy, Nationwide Conference and League Two titles.

He managed the club for a spell and worked miracles to keep the Glovers in League One. And since January 2012 to the present day he has been assistant manager to Gary Johnson and played a leading role in the club's promotion in May 2013 to The Championship.
