Yeovil Town FC is pleased to announce that Mark Cooper, who achieved promotion back to the National League last season, has signed a new three-year contract to manage the Glovers.

Martin Hellier, owner and Chairman of Yeovil Town, made the following statement:

“I could not be more pleased that Mark has agreed to stay with the club on a three-year contract renewal.
Mark endured almost impossible conditions in his first season at the club under the previous ownership, and last season has shown us how a manager, the players and the club, can flourish when given the means to do so, which of course resulted in an end of season promotion for the Glovers.

Fourteen record wins in a row, attendance records smashed, and several other accolades are all testament to Mark’s prowess as a manager and his commitment to the club. Today I am glad to show my commitment to Mark.

Furthermore, I am today injecting more funds into the player budget so that Mark can fine tune the already superb squad he has put together, and I have every confidence Mark will continue to lead the club to further success.  He is a great friend and professional colleague and I wish him all the best.
