Anyone else listen to the interview?  Spencer said something about there’s stuff going on behind the scenes not at Farnborough and will points change. If that’s true and someone in the promotion zone is due a points deduction I wonder who it could be. |

I think you're reading too much into it.
I think he just means other teams still games in hand and still have play each other which will decide the points.

I could be wrong but assume Spencer could have been referring to the situation at Bath whereby they and Slough are still waiting for a decision on the game early March which was called off late on with Slough at the time winning 4-2. Assume the blazers still need to decide on whether the game will need to be replayed or awarded to Slough. So this could impact on Bath's final play off position.

Interesting point that, Peter. League table shows Bath with 4 games to play, 1 Pt in front of us but +11 GD on us.
Fixtures show Bath with three matches left, H&R A, Torquay H, Aveley A,
So the Slough match makes some difference, depending if it is to be replayed!! ( wouldn't want to referee that one!!) or if it is awarded to Slough, and stand by for the repurcussions to follow!!
If awarded to slough that gives them three more points to 61 and +9 on GD ( 2 better than us) Bath would then still be 1 Pt ahead of us but +9 on GD.
Slough could still, mathematically, get to play offs but it's a very outside chance.
Much for the Blazers to discuss, but I just wonder if is being left until whatever decision is made doesn't alter the situation anyway!! Cynical?? Moi??
Lots of things though seem to revolve around Taunton, Truro and Torquay, so lets just sit back and watch.
Back to Spencers report though, I thought he was a bit harsh on the boys last night. I thought we battled very hard against a much bigger and stronger team that will, in my opinion, make it up to NL with Yeovil.
Losing Ricky was a blow, and we struggled after taking off Clarke and putting on Robbo, which pushed CJ forward. This disrupted a pretty solid pairing of CJ and Pruti, and I'm not so sure their guy would have got that space if it had been left alone! That's not a slur on Robbo, but a possible tactical mistake on our part!!
Anyway, it's all in our hands now, on to Thursday and Chippers at home, Saturday with Taunton.
We just need to concentrate on our games and let the rest fight it out!!
COME ON YOU YELLOWWSSAA!!

Bob, as I'm a cynical old bugger I can see why the blazers may want to wait and see how things unfold before declaring their decision, but that may mean this being the last week of the season.

Yes, it's all mystic Meg stuff anyway. Technically Slough could get 70 points, if including the awarded game v Bath.
Bath currently 67, so one win for Bath would make it practically impossible for Slough to overtake, considering the GD between them.
All we need to do is concentrate on our three games, and see where we finish. Up, down, playoffs, whatever, it's been a very good season, and the Club is growing slowly.
The top five are now locked in for the top spot and play offs. Anyone from 6th to 11th has a chance of sneaking the last two places, and five of them are playing on Tuesday night!! Bum twitching couple of weeks!!
COME ON YOU YELLOWWSSAA!!

Oh dear, oh dear!! Looks like the blazers will have their hands full in the next couple of weeks!!
Maybe that's what Spencer was hinting at? It must be circulating among the League's Club grapevine surely!!

Something seems off about this website. There are a lot of claims made against the Yeovil owner in numerous articles on this website which don't appear to have been reported elsewhere. The only one I can find talking about this is a man called Steve Day, which is where I found this article after he posted it in a Facebook Group. Steve Day appears to have had some history with Martin Hellier, the Yeovil owner, and it looks as if Day owns the website that this article is posted on, along with other articles about Yeovil Town that have been posted on this website. Please be careful what you read. |

Please be careful what you read.
There is a huge difference in what you read and what you take to be true, or with a pinch of salt.
It's like twitter or farcebook, because one person says it, it spreads like wildfire, true or not!!
I do find it strange though, that there appears to be no other references on any platform, and something of this magnitude, if true, would be all over the non league world like a rash!!
I suspect there is some very heavy bait being laid here!!
I'm sure some West Country Lawyers are sharpening pencils rapidly!!
Shame for a huge Club like Yeovil if it spoils a wonderful season.

The site that ran that story has no pedigree that I can tell, despite several searches on Google.
It's registered in the widely acknowledged global247news centre that is, erm, Kidderminster and its content appears to be a combination of screen-scraping stuff from reputable outlets with utter wibble.
Perhaps best to ignore?
