YEOVIL Town announced last night that former Glovers' midfielder Andrejs Stolcers has returned to Huish Park for training.

The club's official website reported last night that Stolcers, 35, an experienced Latvian international, is looking for a club in England and has been allowed to join Yeovil in order to maintain his fitness levels.

Stolcers made 43 appearances for the Glovers in the 2004-05 season and scored seven goals - it was the campaign that saw Yeovil win the Coca-Cola League Two championship and reach the Fourth Round of the FA Cup where they lost out 3-2 at the then Premier League club Charlton Athletic.

The news comes just a few days after Yeovil's FA Cup exit at Oxford United in the First Round. Ironically, Stolcers first goals for the Glovers came in a 6-1 hammering of Oxford at Huish Park in a League Two fixture on September 18, 2004.

One of his best displays for Yeovil, I seem to recall, came in the Glovers' comfortable 3-0 victory at Rotherham United in the FA Cup Third Round that season, in which he scored.

But Stolcers, who is now back at Huish Park four years on, is delighted to have returned to Somerset and reacquaint himself with the locals.

"I am really grateful to Terry Skiverton (Yeovil manager) for allowing me to train here at the moment," he told the Glovers official website.

"I am looking for an English club and believe I can still offer something to a Blue Square Premier team or around that level.

"I realise my options are limited at my age though."
