Yeovil have completed the signing of midfielder Simon Gillett on a free transfer.

The 28-year-old, who has spent most of pre-season on trial with the Glovers following his departure from Nottingham Forest, has penned a two-year contract. "He's a good footballer and we've got a particular game that I think will suit him," boss Gary Johnson told the Western Gazette. "In other teams he has played slightly differently on occasions, but I think I can help him get his career going. "He's a good lad, he's experienced, he's played in the Championship and the lads respect him, which means a lot." Former Bristol City midfielder Marvin Elliott remains on trial with the club.
