Match Report

Yeovil Town's new manager Terry Skiverton thought a point was fair enough from his first game in charge of the Glovers, following a 2-2 draw with Oldham Athletic.

Now that what he called 'the circus' is out of the way the 33-year-old, who has skippered Yeovil for most of his ten seasons at the club, is looking to build on a solid start when they travel to Crewe on Tuesday.

All four goals came in the first half, the last two coming in the bizarre category.

Oldham should have taken the lead on three minutes but home keeper Josh Wagenaar made a superb save to block Dean Smalley.

However, Smalley opened the scoring on 11 minutes after Kevin Maher prised open the defence with a good ball down the middle.

Yeovil were behind for just four minutes. Lively winger Andy Welsh floated in a free-kick from the right and Gavin Tomlin was at the far post to head in.

On 32 minutes Tomlin scored again. Oldham central defender Reuben Hazell tried to pick out goalkeeper Greg Fleming with a back pass, but Fleming was off his line and the ball rolled past him.

Tomlin won the race to knock it over the line to give Yeovil the lead.

History almost repeated itself at the other end six minutes later.

Terrell Forbes, the Yeovil skipper, tried to loop a back header to Wagenaar under pressure, but the keeper had also left his line and the ball flew over him for what was to prove the last goal of the game.

The second half was tense and tight but lacked the sparkle of the first. Oldham should have won it on 82 minutes with Smalley again in the thick of the action.

He picked up the ball eight yards out and crashed a drive against the underside of the crossbar.
