It’s not quite Moneyball but it’s proactive and it’s even cheaper.
Yoevil Town might’ve had a poor season rooted to the bottom of League One and headed off back to the lowest tier of the English Football League, but they’re taking initiative in finding new talent.
Only a week since the season has ended and the club are already in the process of recruiting and what a way to do it as well.
Huish Park is playing host to two trial matches this afternoon of players invited along by the club to showcase their potential.
The games are open to fans of the club to come along and see what’s on offer and the supporters can even vote on who impressed them most – so they can give the board a nudge in the right direction for a player they want to see representing the club next season.

Let’s just hope this doesn’t turn into a Liverpool player of the year/vote for Balotelli farce and they’re forced to bring in a dud.
