York City FC have released a statement in which they say they want to start the National North season as planned.
'York City Football Club has contacted the National League to confirm that we support starting the season as planned.
We realise that this does not align with the stance of all clubs in the league, however every club's situation is unique and individual decisions must be taken in these extreme circumstances.
For York City, it is in our best interests to start the season as scheduled behind closed doors as outlined by the government, put out our newly formed squad who are under contract and have undertaken pre-season training, engage with our fans and try to create some much needed income for the club.'
York are due to play at Edgar Street on October 24th.
