New loan signing Ivan Sproule has spoken to BBC Radio Bristol about his agreed spell with the Glovers. 

The Irishman has bedded down in Bristol since joining City in 2007 and his wife is expecting a baby in December, something Ivan identified as a major factor for the short trip to Huish Park:

"They're a team that like to get the ball down and play, and the one thing I have been lacking in recent weeks is first team action. My wife is pregnant and due around the end of December, so it was going to have to be a move that was close to Bristol, and Yeovil suited me. So hopefully it can work well for both parties. "

In terms of football Sproule is aiming to get Yeovil climbing the table, and hopefully chip in along the way:

"Ideally I'd like to score a few goals, but most importantly it will be about Yeovil and getting those wins for them. Hopefully if we can get those wins, then maybe one or two good moments can come from me as well."

Sproule arrives at Yeovil with a good reputation, and admits that his future may lie away from Ashton Gate:

"As I've said, I don't think my future is going to be at Bristol City, by the summer. But as I've said, I've had a fantastic time at Bristol City and they are a fantastic club with fantastic supporters, but everything has to come to an end and it looks as though my career there is coming to an end. But I'm still a signed player there and if called upon, I would give 100 percent for them again. But at the moment, I have to concentrate on playing for Yeovil."

Despite only joining yesterday Sproule is likely to go straight into the starting eleven for the Glovers game against Bournemouth, a game which can be listened to on BBC Radio Somerset 99.5FM or follow my personal twitter for match updates.
