WHAT a silly decision to release Terry Dolan at the end of last season. Terry Dolan guided City to within touching distance of the play-offs last season, working with little or no money and at the same time making clever permanent and loan signings.

Surely it would have made sense to keep Terry Dolan on to advise Chris Brass on the role at York City and pass on his vast knowledge of the game to the now City boss.

Bearing this in mind surely we would not be dropping out of the League and the future for York City would look a lot brighter.
