I quote Persimmon Homes managing director Ian Hessay (Evening Press, July 18): "As a York-based company, Persimmon Homes is keen to see the continuation of professional football in the city.
"With this in mind, we have been working very closely with the new board at York City Football Club in order to secure planning consent for a new stadium and therefore assist in the club's future."
Yes, but not half as closely as they have worked with Douglas Craig and Bootham Crescent Holdings in trying to ensure that York City are ejected from their rightful home.
