YEOVIL Town Ladies are in danger of returning to part-time status, according to the BBC.

The Glovers, who last summer became full-time to compete in the Women’s Super League, are currently at the foot of the table with five games remaining, five points off safety.

Three off-field staff members are set to exit the club, while the FA has agreed to release funds to assist Yeovil in completing the current season.

In a brief statement, Yeovil expressed their desire to find a “positive resolution” to their financial issues.

It read: “The FA has been extremely supportive and we are working closely with them to bring about a positive resolution to these issues.

“We remain committed to delivering girls and women’s football for the community in the south west.”

News of Yeovil’s plight comes after the Glovers won the second-tier title in 2016 under manager Jamie Sherwood.

Sherwood has since become the club’s director of football, with former Millwall Lionesses boss Lee Burch replacing him in the managerial hotseat.

Yeovil had attempted to raise £350,000 to help fulfil their rise to full-time, under what they perceived to be a prompt motion from the FA to switch all top-tier women’s club to full-time status.

However, the Glovers raised just £1,941 through crowdfunding but still saw their application passed.
