NEW Yeovil Town owner and chairman Prabhu Srinivasan has penned an open letter to the Yeovil Town fans following his acquisition of the club from the Hellier Group.

Posted on the club’s website, the letter reads: “Dear Fellow Glovers, as you might be aware, our family office, Inflection Holdings, has purchased Yeovil Town Football Club. We are delighted to announce this transition in ownership, marking a transformative chapter in the club's history.

“We want to make a clear promise: we will work tirelessly for the values of this incredible club. Like you all, we want success on the pitch, but service to the community is equally important. You never truly own a football club; we are merely the custodians with a responsibility to provide steady and sustainable leadership for the foreseeable future.

“As the famous Glovers song goes ~ Asign of a true supporter is the colour of their heart. Day or night we will be green and white.

“First, a note of gratitude. We want to thank Stuart Robins for agreeing to come in as the club's executive chairman and joining our investment team. Stuart has done a remarkable job in his short time in a leadership role; he is a tremendous asset to our cause and a true servant of the club.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Martin and Jack Hellier for a swift and smooth transition.

“There has been much written about the situation at Huish Park over the last few weeks. With the transition complete, I would like to share with you, our treasured fans, a little about who we are and what we have planned.
