Yeovil Town have moved quickly to appoint Terry Skiverton as their new manager, replacing Russell Slade.

Slade left the club following Saturday's win at Peterborough, and assistant Steve Thompson has also since left the club.

Now the Yeovil board have turned to popular defender Skiverton, 33, on a player-manager basis, assisted by fellow player Nathan Jones.

Skiverton, who is currently injured, takes charge with immediate effect and will make his managerial debut against Athletic at Huish Park on Saturday.
