Former Bristol Rovers CEO Martyn Starnes has made a return to football, joining the board at Yeovil Town. Starnes will take up the same role at the Glovers that he had at the Gas, running the club's day-to-day operation.
Starnes left Rovers in November 2021, resigning after more than three years in BS7. He put his departure down to "personal reasons" and he was replaced by Tom Gorringe, who is closing in on a year in the role.
Starnes joined the Gas in 2018 after stints working at Plymouth Argyle and Yeovil, and he has returned to Huish Park. He has been assisting chairman Scott Priestnall in recent months and his role is set to be formalised, meaning he will work closely with manager – and fellow former Rovers employee – Chris Hargreaves.
