It's extremely sad to see York in such a mess. We often knock the Club Doncaster concept but at least it gives us a certain amount of stability.

Well said Sir I fully concur

Sad sad state of affairs, feel for the players and fans of York, can't help thinking the Rfl would have done a lot more for a club higher up, like buy the ground for instance.

Feel very sorry for the fans, volunteers & players at York.

It could have quite easily been us on various occasions over the years.

Not sure what RFL involvement there's been but it's hard to think that one of the 'bigger names' would have been allowed to whither away like this.

No wonder the game is on its uppers and haemorrhaging support.

Good luck to all involved with any plans to keep the club alive.

There will be a solution ....
