I see that York played Leeds in a friendly last night.

Seems they can deal with several hundred Leeds fans but not us!

York v Leeds is very similar to GTFC v Cleethorpes Town - loads of Leeds fans in York.

No idea why it's off either. Seem to recall the last time we played them, there was a huge police (and dog) presence outside the away stand.

Frankly, they can't cope with the hoards of Teesiders who get hammered in York every Saturday so probably panicked.

I'm also going to York tomorrow, intended on taking my 3 year old daughter to the match with a pre match trip around the train museum. Will have to spend the time between 3pm and my train home watching the buskers whilst eating Gyros from my favourite Greek street food stand. Sad times....

There will be tomorrow  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Yep. I’ve lived there nearly ten years now and it’s pretty much a no go area from 10am on Saturday until Sunday lunchtime. Newcastle and Middlesbrough lot turn up drunk off the trains.

Bit rich for York folk to moan about marauding, drunk northmen turning up ruining the ambience. Like Ozzies moaning about immigrants.

When I was a little boy
I asked my daddy what would i be

Here's what he said to me

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam
I dont want no tea no tea
I'm watching the Grimsby
Tell me Mam me mam

Probably because of the heavy demands placed on the police by the Shakespeare thing. The coppers heard there was going to be a big gang fight with knives and even swords. Something to do with those well-known York mobs t'Capulets and t'Montagues.


They have been 'Bard' from most pubs.
