RECENT letters about the apparent axing of both Barry Parker and Sharon Shortle by Radio York’s “powers that be” bring to mind how, a couple of seasons back, Barry P was moved from covering City’s games and was reporting on Harrogate Town instead, again seemingly without consultation with the fans.
A season later he was back at YCFC, but with a total lack of communication as to why.
The difference between then and now is that Sharon was in the studio reading out the “bring back Barry” texts.
At present all presentations done from the game and texts do not seem to be encouraged anymore. Bring back Barry and Sharon.
