After a disappointing defeat to National League leaders Forest Green ended Billy Rowley’s winning streak, Yeovil Town is eager to bounce back as they travel to Truro City on Boxing Day. Reflecting on the previous match, Rowley admitted, “We weren’t a great version of ourselves.” Despite challenging weather conditions, he believes both sides had to cope equally, emphasizing that the focus now is on improving and moving forward.
Truro City currently languishes at the bottom of the National League table, but Rowley warns against underestimating them. “It’s a tricky game; the league table is unkind to them,” he said, noting that Truro has suffered some unlucky results that don’t reflect their true performance. Yeovil will remember that Truro claimed a recent 2-0 home victory over Wealdstone, although they endured a heavy loss against York City last time out.
Boosting Yeovil’s confidence is the return of key players Josh Sims and Jacob Maddox to full training. Maddox, who has played just five games since joining last season, has already shown promising glimpses. “He’ll be like a new signing,” Rowley remarked, highlighting Maddox’s potential impact.

Yeovil will also draw encouragement from their last encounter with Truro, where a 2-0 victory secured the National League South title. With spirit high and determination renewed, Rowley and the Glovers aim to finish the Christmas period on a victorious note.
