  • "Just got back from Mansfield, what a great result. Fantastic support from the City fans, my ears are still ringing, City fans sang throughout the game. Full marks to all the players, special mention for Ingham, Smith and Parslow. Just one small grouse "Jason cut out the show-boating and stick the ball in the bloody net". Mansfield only offered the long ball game, they had absolutely nothing else to offer. Didnt really want Luton again, but there should be around 50,000 there, with Luton having around 40,000 of them. Another huge battle, but we have proved time and time again that we are up to it."

Matty Blair sends York City into Blue Square Bet Premier play-off final

GOAL hero Matty Blair struck in extra time to send York City to Wembley in the Blue Square Bet Premier play-off final.

The Minstermen's semi-final against Mansfield Town appeared to be heading for penalties at 1-1 on aggregate when Blair bagged the winning goal with nine minutes remaining.

A minute later the Stags had defender Ritchie Sutton sent off for a second bookable offence and City managed to hang on.

York now face a Wembley double header, taking on Newport County in the final of the FA Trophy this Saturday before facing Luton Town or Wrexham in the play-off final on Sunday, May 20.
