Yeovil Town have appointed former player Jerry Gill as their new assistant manager.

Gill, who was most recently Bath City manager, returns to the club as Richard Dryden's number two.

Dryden took over from Danny Webb as boss earlier this week after Webb's resignation 10 days after being appointed.

Gill bolsters the backroom team following news that first-team coach Chris Todd has left the club to join fellow National League side Eastleigh as director of football.

"Jerry is someone who knows this club and the local football scene very well," Dryden told the club website, external.

"He brings not only coaching experience at a high level, but also real character and passion for the game."
