In this episode of Glovers Past , we sit down with Charlie Lee, calling in all the way from the Gold Coast of Australia, to reflect on his deeply eventful spell at Huish Park. Arriving in the summer of 2019 after Yeovil Town’s relegation to the National League, Charlie was a key part of Darren Sarll’s sweeping squad rebuild. He takes us inside a dressing room packed with massive characters—including Carl Dickinson, Luke Wilkinson, and Lee Collins—and breaks down the momentum that saw the team rack up six consecutive wins before the world ground to a halt. Charlie speaks candidly about the highest of highs and the lowest of lows during his time in Somerset, moving from his playing days into his first taste of management when he stepped up as interim boss. In this episode, we discuss: The 2019 Rebuild: Dropping into the National League, answering Darren Sarll's call, and assembling a squad of seasoned leaders. The Covid-19 Playoffs: The bizarre reality of preparing for the biggest games of the season during a national lockdown, and the surreal experience of playing the playoffs behind closed doors. Stepping into the Dugout: Transitioning from player to interim manager after Sarll's departure, navigating the pressure, and lifting the Somerset Premier Cup. Remembering Lee Collins: A heartfelt and candid reflection on the devastating passing of the club captain, the profound impact it had on the squad, and the incredible difficulty of returning to the pitch in the aftermath. Life Down Under: His transition to coaching at Magic United in Queensland and experiencing football in a completely different climate. Whether you're looking for dressing room anecdotes or honest reflections on one of the most turbulent periods in the club's recent history, Charlie delivers incredible insight into what it truly meant to wear the green and white during this era.

Welcome back to another Mini Matchday Edition of The Gloverscast! With a grueling lunchtime kickoff looming this Saturday, we’re getting the inside track on our upcoming opponents, Gateshead FC, straight from the foot in the opposition camp. To help us make sense of the Heed's incredibly chaotic summer, we are joined by Dave from the Heed Army Podcast .
