Fry to mull over recruitment

Gary Johnson's request for new Yeovil signings will be considered at a meeting later this week, chairman John Fry has revealed.
The Glovers boss made no secret of his desire to bolster his squad after Saturday's impressive away win at Bradford having seen deals fall through on deadline day due to a breakdown in communications. But Fry insists they will live within their means and he will not put the club's future at risk. "We had a useful meeting and there will be another one later this week with the football executive committee when the manager's requests for additional players will be considered," he told the Western Gazette. "You have only to look at the likes of Hereford,Torquay, Bristol Rovers and even Salisbury City to see how easily football clubs can get into serious trouble, and even go to the wall. "I do not want anything like that to happen to Yeovil Town, and I and my directors will do everything within our power to ensure financial and footballing success. "Make no mistake, me and my directors are in charge at Yeovil Town. Our books are in the black at the moment, but we have to be careful. "We need 4,500 at every home game, but at the moment we are struggling to reach 4,000. Wins like the one at Bradford should help, but consistency will boost our gates, I am sure. Then perhaps we can think about boosting the squad as well."
