I’m sure you'll all be aware of the issues currently surrounding York City Knights, for info it’s all detailed here:
www.yorkpress.co.uk/news/1170553 ... ugby_club/
www.yorkpress.co.uk/sport/yorkcityknights/
The city of York council gave full planning permission on Friday for a new 8000 capacity community stadium, this planning permission was given despite a 29 page objection being submitted at the 11th hour by the owner of York City Knights, John Guildford. Guildford also went on to speak at the meeting, lodging his objection to the stadium in a less than eloquent manner. These objections proved totally fruitless and only further enhanced the councils position against him.
Our first league game is on Good Friday and as of now we have nowhere to play home games and absolutely no chance of anywhere to play with the current owner in place due to his actions.
We have a local businessman, Jason McGill, who is also owner of York City FC wanting to take over the club but as of yet Guildford has refused to enter into negotiations with him. The RFL are fully aware of his intentions and business case but will not assist in a takeover, if this takeover doesn’t happen we’re basically stuffed. No pro-RL club in York.
Some fans have set up a petition and while it might not do anything (1m+ signatures didn’t keep Clarkson in a job!) it something to put forward to the RFL to show what Rugby League supporters want for the club in York.
Link is below, we would appreciate your support.

Done. York have had a rugby team as long as I can remember, including your namesake Vic, and should not be denied the opportunity to carry on. Good luck with it.

Signed.
JG is his own man and will do what he wants. I do not break any rules by saying he once took a firm I was working for for about £20k, only to be operating again the following week!
Please sign this, I would like to think that we Wakefield fans would know how difficult these things can be within our sport and we should offer whatever support we can in securing the future of pro RL in York!
Meanwhile, I now have at least 4 meetings on my calendar in the next 2 weeks! It's all warming up! |
