It was manager Paul Sturrock's first season in charge as he saw a complete overhaul of the side that had suffered back-to-back relegations, and signed nineteen players on permanent and loan contracts before the close of the summer transfer window. The season started poorly with the club suffering a series of injury crises and only winning two league matches by the end of November. With a third consecutive relegation a real possibility the club sacked Sturrock, with him being replaced in the interim by first-team coach Darren Way and after his permanent appointment in January, Yeovil's form improved including a run of four consecutive 1–0 wins in March and eight clean-sheets in nine matches. Safety was confirmed with four matches to spare as Yeovil finished the season in 19th place.
The club reached the third round of the FA Cup, for the third consecutive season for the first time in the club's history, losing in a penalty shootout to Carlisle United having beaten Maidstone United and Stevenage in the preceding rounds. Yeovil were eliminated in the first round of the League Cup losing at home to Queens Park Rangers and reached the Southern Area Semi-finals of the Football League Trophy, losing to Oxford United, having defeated Barnet, Coventry City and Gillingham. There was a three-way tie for top goalscorer with Ryan Bird, Harry Cornick and François Zoko each scoring 8 goals.
Background
The 2014–15 season saw Yeovil compete in the third tier of English football following their immediate relegation from the Championship. The season started poorly with two consecutive league defeats and despite a brief improvement in form in late August and September, Yeovil remained in the relegation zone from October until the end of the season. The club's poor form led to the departure of manager Gary Johnson in February,[1] but his replacement Terry Skiverton could not arrest the Glovers plight and after six consecutive league defeats was replaced by Paul Sturrock.[2] His first match in charge saw Yeovil's back-to-back relegation to League Two confirmed.[3] The club finished bottom of the league twelve points from safety. Despite relegation in the league Yeovil reached the third round of the FA Cup and faced Premier League side Manchester United for the first time since 1949.[4]
The end of the season saw new manager Paul Sturrock perform a major clear out of the Yeovil squad, with eleven players released including Fergus Bell, Liam Davis, Craig Eastmond, Joel Grant, James Hayter, Sam Hoskins, Kieffer Moore, Nathan Ralph, Alex Smith, Seth Nana Twumasi and Gozie Ugwu, while club captain Joe Edwards and midfielder Sam Foley both rejected offers of new contracts.[5][6] A further four players were offered deals to terminate their contracts early with both James Berrett and Adam Morgan agreeing to leave the club in the close season.[7][8] Finally midfielder Kevin Dawson signed a new two-year contract with the club.[9]

The result was the first time in ten years that the Glovers had come from two goals down to win a league match, and the first time since December 1999 at Huish Park.[42][43] On 29 August, Yeovil traveled to unbeaten Oxford United and ended August with a 2–0 defeat.[44]
September
The 1 September saw Yeovil face Barnet in the first round of the Football League Trophy southern section at Huish Park, a dull game with just a single shot on target between the two sides was won courtesy of an own goal from Barnet defender Bira Dembélé as Yeovil progressed to face Coventry City in the second round.[45] After the match manager Paul Sturrock revealed that midfielder David Norris had left the club after just one substitute appearance.[46] On 5 September, Yeovil faced Morecambe and at half time led 2–0 thanks to goals from Harry Cornick and Omar Sowunmi either side of striker Shaun Jeffers being dismissed, 10-man Yeovil capitulated in the second half conceding four times to lose 4–2.[47] After the match the loans of both Cornick and Connor Roberts were extended for a further month,[48] while on 11 September, winger Jake Howells signed on a month's loan from Luton Town.[49] On 12 September, Yeovil drew 1–1 at home with AFC Wimbledon, in the first meeting between the two sides Yeovil took the lead through Ryan Bird before former trialist Adebayo Akinfenwa equalised for the Dons with 11 minutes remaining.[50] Prior to the trip to Crawley Town on 19 September, manager Paul Sturrock confirmed that youth team player Ollie Bassett would be making his first team debut, the attacking midfielder broke Steven Caulker's record as Yeovil's youngest ever player in the Football League by just 26 days and also the first youth team player to make his debut for Yeovil since Craig Alcock in May 2007.[51][52] With the squad stretched due to injuries, Yeovil only named five substitutes one of whom was fellow youth team midfielder Max Melanson, despite this Yeovil recorded their first away win of the season courtesy of a 25-yard strike from Harry Cornick.[53] During the week, Bournemouth midfielder Josh Wakefield returned to his parent club after the completion of his loan spell, and in his place Yeovil re-signed Swansea City player Josh Sheehan on loan until 28 December following a spell on loan at the end of the 2014–15 season.[54] He made his second debut for the club on 26 September, in Yeovil's 2–1 home defeat to Hartlepool United, with Yeovil's goal coming courtesy of Ryan Bird's fourth of the season.[55] On 29 September, Yeovil traveled to Accrington Stanley and despite a long range strike from loanee Josh Sheehan, Yeovil suffered another 2–1 defeat.[56] Yeovil ended the month with a first round tie in the Somerset Premier Cup, with a team entirely made up of the club's youth team winning 3–2 away at Southern Premier League side Paulton Rovers.[57]
October
Yeovil's first match of October saw them face high-flying Portsmouth, the game was uneventful as Yeovil held their opponents to a creditable goalless draw.[58] On 6 October, Yeovil faced League One opposition in the shape of Coventry City in the second round of the Football League Trophy, a second consecutive goalless draw saw the match be decided with a penalty shoot-out. Yeovil scored all four of their kicks, while keeper Artur Krysiak saved two of Coventry's to guide the Glovers through to the southern area quarter-final stage.[59] Before the match the club had confirmed the extension of Bournemouth loanee Harry Cornick's loan for a further month.[60] Yeovil's next game saw them play fellow struggles Dagenham & Redbridge, despite being two-nil down after 65 minutes the Glovers battled back to salvage a point with goals from top goalscorer Ryan Bird and a first for the club from defender Jakub Sokolík.[61] After the match the club confirmed that left midfielder Jake Howells had returned to parent club Luton Town at the end of his loan spell,[62] while Connor Roberts extended his loan spell from Swansea City for a further month.[63] Yeovil lost two matches in four days, first 2–0 away at Notts County,[64] and then 1–0 at home to Mansfield Town after conceding in the tenth minute of injury time as Yeovil slipped into the relegation zone.[65] On 24 October, the club confirmed that striker Jamie Burrows had requested the cancellation of his contract having struggled with injury following his summer move from Rangers,[66] while also announcing the signing of Coventry City attack-minded midfielder George Thomas on a one-month loan deal.[67] Later that afternoon, Thomas made his debut against Cambridge United but a disastrous first half saw Yeovil trail 3–0 after just 35 minutes, goals from Ryan Bird and Josh Sheehan saw Yeovil rally but to no avail.[68] After suffering a serious knee injury in the defeat to Cambridge, loanee centre-back Stephen Arthurworrey returned to Fulham early.[69] Yeovil's final game of October, saw the Glovers travel to Carlisle United. The team started well unlike the week before against Cambridge leading 2–0 after only eight minutes with goals from Ryan Bird, his seventh of the season, and Harry Cornick despite this a second half collapse consigned Yeovil to a second consecutive 3–2 defeat and saw them drop to the bottom of the league table.[70]
November
The month started with the Yeovil U18 side featuring in the FA Youth Cup for the first time in three years, on 3 November, the youth side faced Forest Green Rovers in the first round. The young Glovers won the match 4–0 to set up a second round tie with the Metropolitan Police.[71] Ahead of their FA Cup first round tie away at National League South side Maidstone United, manager Paul Sturrock signed up veteran defender Darren Ward on short-term deal until January.[72] Nine-man Yeovil progressed past their Conference South opponents thanks to a goal from Wes Fogden, despite the dismissals of both defender Jakub Sokolík after just seven minutes and goalkeeper Artur Krysiak with more than half an hour to go.[73] Two days later, Yeovil traveled to Kent once more this time to face League One side Gillingham in the southern area quarter-final of the Football League Trophy, with the suspension of Artur Krysiak youth team goalkeeper James Needle featured on the bench for the first time. Yeovil took the lead against their higher ranked opponents through Harry Cornick but were pegged back through a Bradley Garmston goal just before half-time, the game went to a penalty shoot-out with Gillingham missing their fourth kick while Yeovil once again scored all of their penalties with right-back Connor Roberts converting the winning penalty.[74] After scoring in Yeovil's trophy success Cornick extended his loan from Bournemouth for a further month until 9 December.[75] The same evening the Yeovil reserves side, entirely made up of academy players, exited the Somerset Premier Cup at the second round stage losing 4–1 to Odd Down.[76] On 14 November, Yeovil faced Stevenage and despite leading twice through goals from Harry Cornick and Shaun Jeffers they were twice pegged back and a late equaliser meant the game finished 2–2.[77] After the match, the club confirmed the extension of Connor Roberts loan from Swansea City for a further month until 16 December.[78] On 18 December, the Yeovil U18 were knocked out of the second round of the FA Youth Cup at the hands of the Metropolitan Police, following a 1–1 draw after extra time the match went to a penalty shoot-out with the young Glovers losing 7–6 after a total of eighteen penalties.[79] Ahead of Yeovil's trip to Newport County, the club signed Ivory Coast striker François Zoko on a short-term contract until 20 January.[80] Zoko went straight into the Yeovil starting line-up for the match but couldn't arrest the club's form as they played out a goalless draw with Newport.[81] Yeovil dropped to the bottom of the Football League once more after losing 1–0 at home to Wycombe Wanderers on 24 November.[82] Loan transfer deadline day, on 26 November, the club announced the extension of George Thomas's loan from Coventry City until 3 January,[83] while also signing young Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Christian Maghoma on loan until 2 January.[84] Yeovil ended the month with a 2–0 defeat away at Northampton Town, on 28 November.[85]

Sturrock was replaced by former Glovers midfielder Darren Way who was installed as interim manager by Chairman John Fry with former manager Terry Skiverton remaining as his assistant.[86] Way's first move as manager was to offer a professional contract to youth team player Ollie Bassett, the young midfielder signing a contract until June 2017.[87] Yeovil's first match under the stewardship of Darren Way was an FA Cup second round tie at home against Stevenage, on 5 December, a late strike from Ben Tozer helped Way earn a victory in his first game in temporary charge and guide Yeovil through to the third round of the FA Cup for the third successive season. Prior to the match Way had replaced Ryan Dickson as club captain with experienced defender Darren Ward being made captain.[88] In the FA Cup third round, Yeovil were drawn away at fellow League Two side Carlisle United but due to the flood damage at their Brunton Park home caused by Storm Desmond the fixture was moved to Bloomfield Road the home of Blackpool.[89] On 8 December, Yeovil faced Oxford United in the southern area semi-final of the Football League Trophy but were knocked out at the semi-final stage. Goals from Wes Fogden and Shaun Jeffers weren't enough as the Glovers lost 3–2.[90] On 11 December, Yeovil confirmed that Coventry City midfielder George Thomas had returned to his parent club having only made five appearances for the Glovers,[91] while the loan of Harry Cornick from Bournemouth was once again was extended this time until 11 January.[92] In Way's first league match in charge, on 12 December, Yeovil scored twice in the last ten minutes courtesy of a brace from François Zoko to salvage a 2–2 draw against fellow strugglers Barnet.[93] On 19 December, Yeovil traveled to Leyton Orient where Zoko scored his third goal in two matches to give Yeovil the lead on the stroke of half time but a 30-yard strike from Jobi McAnuff denied the Glovers victory.[94] After the match, the club confirmed that the loans of Swansea City defender Connor Roberts and midfielder Josh Sheehan had both been extended until mid January.[95][96] It was also confirmed that former Yeovil forward Chris Giles had returned to the club as acting first team coach.[97] On Boxing Day, Yeovil traveled to top of the table Plymouth Argyle but came away empty handed losing 1–0 to the Devon side.[98] Yeovil's tough Christmas fixtures continued with a home match against second placed Oxford United, on 28 December.

Yeovil had an early chance to take the lead but midfielder Matthew Dolan saw an eighth-minute penalty saved by keeper Barry Roche, despite the miss the Glovers took the lead through captain Darren Ward's first goal for the club, but the lead only lasted five minutes as Yeovil lost the match 2–1.[109] Yeovil's next match saw them face Carlisle United in their third round replay, a match deemed to be worth over £200,000 to the winner. Yeovil took the lead in the first half through Jack Compton's first goal of the club before Antony Sweeney headed in a late equaliser. Following that equaliser a brawl broke out between the two sets of players but despite Carlisle striker Jabo Ibehre "clotheslining" Yeovil keeper Artur Krysiak, the striker escaped with just a yellow card. With the game deep into injury time in the second half Yeovil earned a penalty but striker François Zoko missed to send the game into extra time, the 30 minutes of extra time saw no further goals but two red cards with defender Alex Lacey receiving a red card for a studs-up tackle while Carlisle's Luke Joyce was dismissed for a second bookable offence.

March
Yeovil began March with a visit of Accrington Stanley to Huish Park. Before the match manager Darren Way confirmed that midfielder Wes Fogden, who hadn't featured for the club since early December, had suffered a serious knee injury that would rule him out for the remainder of the season.[131] Yeovil beat fourth placed Accrington courtesy of a goal from left back Ryan Dickson, his first of the season, to move six points clear of the relegation zone.[132] Before the Glovers trip to Mansfield Town, Yeovil extended the loan of Tahvon Campbell from West Bromwich Albion for a further month,[133] midfielder Liam Walsh from Everton until 5 April.[134] While Simon Gillett left the club in search of first-team football joining League One side Peterborough United on loan for a month.[135] On the day of the match the club confirmed the signing of former England under-21 striker Leroy Lita on a short-term contract until the end of the season.[136] Ryan Dickson scored his second winner in the space of five days with a stoppage-time goal at Mansfield to give Yeovil a third consecutive 1–0 victory.[137] On 12 March, Yeovil extended their unbeaten run to six matches, with a fourth consecutive 1–0 victory and a fifth clean sheet in a row, after a François Zoko goal earned victory over Notts County.

Summary and aftermath
Yeovil struggled in the first half of the season with only 11 points from their first 20 league games, but after the sacking of manager Paul Sturrock the club's form turned around and after picking up 38 points under his replacement Darren Way the club finished safely in lower mid-table.[163] In the league the team won 6 matches, drew 9 and lost 8 at home, compared to winning 5, drawing 6 and losing 12 away from home. The club's 43 league goals was the fewest in League Two. Connor Roberts recorded the highest number of appearances during the season, appearing in 53 of Yeovil's 54 matches. Ryan Bird, Harry Cornick and François Zoko were the club's joint top scorers with 8 goals each, with Bird scoring the most in the league.
The end of the season saw Way release eight players, including Jack Compton, Jordan Gibbons, Simon Gillett, Shaun Jeffers, Marc Laird, Leroy Lita, Jakub Sokolík and Chris Weale, while the club terminated the contracts of Mark Beck and Wes Fogden a year early.[164] Six players were offered new contracts by Darren Way, defender Nathan Smith and Ivorian striker François Zoko agreed new one-year contracts,[165][166] while goalkeeper Artur Krysiak, Ryan Dickson and Omar Sowunmi all agreed two-year contract extensions.[167][168][169] Defensive midfielder Ben Tozer verbally agreed a new contract subject to him passing a medical after recovering from an operation on his knee,[170] but later rejected the offer to sign for Newport County.[171]
Club
The club's management team and backroom staff remained largely the same as the end of the 2014–15 season, with manager Paul Sturrock signing a new two-year contract having been working with the club informally since his appointment in April 2015.[172] In addition his assistant Terry Skiverton and coach Darren Way both agreed new deals to extend their stay at the club.[173] Goalkeeper Chris Weale signed a new contract with the club to takeover from Gareth Stewart as the club's new goalkeeping coach.[18] Further cost-cutting measures saw the departure of head physio Simon Baker at the end of the season with Mike Micciche assuming sole physio duties.[174] On 1 December, following a run of twelve league games without a victory and the club bottom of the Football League, Yeovil sacked manager Paul Sturrock and installed first team coach Darren Way as his successor as interim manager.[86] Way drafted in former Yeovil striker Chris Giles as acting first team coach to fill the void following his own promotion to interim manager.[97] On 31 December, after six games as interim boss the club confirmed the appointment of Darren Way as permanent boss, although without confirming the length of his contract.[100]
The 2015–16 season saw the relaunch of the club's youth academy after a two-season hiatus, with former Torquay United academy manager Geoff Harrop joining the newly formed Category 3 set up in the same role.[175] On 10 July 2015, the club announced that former Plymouth Argyle player and coach David Byrne as head of youth responsible for the coaching of the academy and under 18's manager.[176]
A new home and away kit were once again introduced. The new home kit again featured green and white hoops, but in the new kit with wider green and white stripe than previously and with the club crest inside of a shield to make the crest more prominent on the green hoop.[177] While the away kit saw a copy of the previous seasons home kit, featuring a gold jersey with green hoops themselves made up of six further green stripes.[178] The kits continued to feature Thatchers Cider as rear shirt sponsor, but the 2015–16 season saw the return of Jones Building Group as the club's main sponsor on an initial one-year contract.[179]
