    I’m all for minutes in the legs but it just doesn’t make any sense. Woods looks out of his depth against 6th tier players

    Seri and Woods midfield partnership keeps me awake at night.

    Is Xavier Simons injured? He wasn’t on the bench for Bradford either. He’s the only holding midfielder we have tall enough to ride the rollercoasters at Flamingo Land and strong enough to win the ball back.

    I thought National League was full time professional and National League North and South were semi pro. If a club gets promoted to National League they may take a year or two to go fully professional.

    "minutes in the legs"
    "pre-season means nothing"
    "we nearly scored 7 or 8 goals"
    "still aiming for top 6"

    York remained fully pro in national. League North. It's not as simple as the league they're in. If finances permit they can be a professional outfit at that level. Some are, some aren't.

    No, there's no rule that says you have to go professional, many teams that come up too quickly don't bother and the ones that go down try to stay professional in the hopes they can bounce back. Some go back to being semi-pro, like Boston and Darlington did.

    Let's face it any club isn't want to go from pro to semi unless they can help it as its a step further away from reistically competing for the football league, as most in tiers 5 or 6 still aspire.

    People really clinging on to that pre season friendly result in 2008 to justify us being **** :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Preseason has never meant anything except fitness. Not just 2008.

    I’d argue that we’ve been poor in most pre season games for the past 20 years, coincidentally we’ve been pretty poor in league games for the past 20 years :emoticon-0102-bigsm minus a few good years in the prem
