AFTER reading Peter Martini’s article in Saturday’s Press and with such a rollercoaster week for the York Rugby supporter, your piece was great timing and will remind everyone what Rugby in York is all about and the long tradition it has with in this great city.

As a member of the Moore family, I wish to thank you for the section regarding my grandad and as we have a relationship of over a century with the club.

I really hope that the directors and council step up to the mark and get this ridiculous situation resolved.

York Rugby club is not about the directors; it is not about the City of York Council; it is about the supporters and the community spirit that rugby has in the area.

People need to be reminded of that and those in a position of responsibility need to ensure that Rugby League has a place with in the new stadium.

I think it is fantastic news for York City – now let’s get the York City Knights on board too.
