The York City era rolls on. This week, as Luke and Will man the fort, Will takes his commitment to new heights by unveiling a newly purchased £50 York City home shirt. Now looking the part, the duo attempt to break down York's unbeaten start to the season, following their gritty 1-1 away draw with Rotherham United.

The York City era is officially underway. This week, Luke and Will attempt to review York’s opening day victory over Bristol Rovers, despite neither of them actually watching the game.
