Glovers lose 'keeper coach to Addicks!

coaching change at Huish

Yeovil Town's goalkeeper coach Ben Roberts has left the club, joining up with fellow League One side Charlton Athletic. 

Roberts had been at Yeovil for roughly a year and a half, acting as both a scout and goalkeeper coach, finding himself making one forced appearance along the way due to injury to regular 'keeper Stephen Henderson.

His move to the Valley won't be a strange won for the 35 year old, who spent a three year period with the Addicks from 2000 to 2003, making one appearance in the Premiership against Fulham. 

The reasoning behind the mid-season change is due to the departure of former Charlton goalkeeper coach Andy Woodman, who has joined previous Addicks manager Alan Pardew at Newcastle United. 

We wish Ben the best of luck in his new job, and thank him for his services during his time with the Glovers.
