Background and pre-season

Michael Gash joined York City from Ebbsfleet United for a £55,000 fee.

Colin Walker was dismissed as manager of York City early into the 2008–09 season,[2] and his successor was former Port Vale manager Martin Foyle.[3] The team finished the season in 17th-place in the Conference Premier table,[4] and were defeated 2–0 by Stevenage Borough in the 2009 FA Trophy Final at Wembley Stadium.[5] Mark Greaves, Steven Hogg, Daniel McBreen, Shaun Pejic, Josh Radcliffe, Mark Robinson, Simon Rusk, Liam Shepherd and Christian Smith and Ben Wilkinson were released by York after the season ended.[6][7][8][9] Adam Boyes, Craig Farrell, Darren Kelly and Onome Sodje left for Scunthorpe United, Rushden & Diamonds, Portadown and Barnsley respectively.[10][11][12][13]

Richard Brodie, Andy McWilliams, Josh Mimms and Ben Purkiss signed new contracts with York.[6][7][14] 11 players joined before the season kicked off; defenders James Meredith from Shrewsbury Town,[15] Alan O'Hare from Mansfield Town[16] and Djoumin Sangaré from Salisbury City,[17] midfielders Neil Barrett from Ebbsfleet United,[18] Andy Ferrell from Kidderminster Harriers,[14] Alex Lawless from Forest Green Rovers,[19] Levi Mackin from Wrexham,[15] winger Craig Nelthorpe from Oxford United,[14] and strikers Michael Gash from Ebbsfleet,[20] Richard Pacquette from Maidenhead United[15] and Michael Rankine from Rushden.[11] Striker Michael Emmerson was promoted from the youth team after he signed a professional contract with the club.[21] Daniel Parslow was named as captain for the season, having taken over the role during 2008–09.[22]

York retained the previous season's home kit, which comprised red and navy blue halved shirts with red collars, navy blue shorts and navy blue socks with two white strips on the cuffs.[23] A new away kit was introduced, and it included light blue shirts with white horizontal stripes, light blue shorts and light blue socks.[24] There was a change in shirt sponsor, with the name of Pryers Solicitors becoming present on the team kits.[23]

Review

August

York's season started with a 2–1 away defeat by Oxford, in which Brodie gave York the lead before Oxford scored two late goals.[31] This was followed by a 0–0 home draw with Rushden,[32] in which Rankine had a goal ruled out, as the referee had awarded a foul against Rushden.[33] York's first win of the season came with a 2–0 home victory over Forest Green,[34] and the goals were scored by Rankine and Adam Smith.[35] Emmerson joined Northern League Division One club Billingham Town on a one-month loan.[36] A second defeat of the season came after Gareth Taylor scored for Wrexham in a 1–0 away defeat.[34][37] Pacquette scored the equalising goal for York in a 1–1 away draw with Hayes & Yeading United after being introduced as a substitute.[38] The team's first away victory came with a 2–1 win against Gateshead,[34] with goals from Brodie and Gash.[24] Goals from Brodie (2) and Smith ensured a second successive victory of the season, after beating Histon 3–1.[34][39]

September

Chris Carruthers signed on loan from Oxford United.

Goals in the opening 10 minutes from Brodie and Gash gave York a 2–0 home win over Crawley Town.[40] A 0–0 draw away to Barrow followed, who had been beaten 6–1 by Rushden & Diamonds in their previous match.[41] Two goals from Brodie, both of which were assisted by Sangaré, gave York 2–0 victory at home to Kettering Town.[42] Simon Russell was loaned out to divisional rivals Tamworth, having failed to play any matches for York up to that point in 2009–10.[43] Gash scored a header on 89 minutes to secure a 2–2 home draw with Cambridge United, after having given York the lead in the first half, before Cambridge scored two goals through Jai Reason and Mark Beesley.[44] Goals from Brodie (2) and Gash gave York a 3–2 victory over Kidderminster.[45] Chris Carruthers was signed from Oxford on a one-month loan to provide competition with Ferrell and Meredith on the left-hand side,[46] while O'Hare was loaned out to Conference North club Gainsborough Trinity.[47]

October

December

Brodie scored the only goal in a 1–0 away victory over Rushden.[69] Mansfield agreed to extend Graham's loan until January 2010, when he would sign for the club permanently.[70] Goals from Carruthers and Brodie gave York a 2–1 home win over Wrexham, a result that equalled the club record for successive victories in all competitions with eight.[71] Youth-team defender Dean Lisles was promoted to the first-team squad, to provide cover for the injured Sangaré, O'Hare and Purkiss.[72] York drew 0–0 away to Hinckley United in the first round of the FA Trophy,[73] and the replay at home was won 3–1, in which Brodie scored his second hat-trick of 2009–10.[74] York beat fellow play-off contenders Mansfield 3–0 on Boxing Day, Brodie (2) and Gash scoring.[75] Berry was released after failing to make an appearance, while Emmerson was loaned out to Ossett Town of the Northern Premier League Premier Division.[76]

March

A 2–1 away defeat to Barrow saw the team knocked out of the FA Trophy in the quarter-final, Pacquette scoring for York.[97] York suffered a second straight league defeat after being beaten 2–1 away by Forest Green Rovers,[34] in which Mackin scored after his shot hit the back of an opposition player.[98] Chester's expulsion from the Football Conference resulted in York having the three points gained against them from a 3–2 victory expunged, meaning the team moved down to sixth in the table.[99] York were defeated 2–1 at home by Salisbury, after Sangaré had put the team in the lead.[100] Chesterfield midfielder Paul Harsley joined on loan until the end of the season,[101] and made his debut in a 0–0 draw away to Altrincham,[102] a result that ended a run of three consecutive defeats.[34] York's first victory in six league matches was a 1–0 away win over Mansfield, Pitt scoring his first goal for the club.[103] McWilliams was loaned out to Northern Premier League Premier Division club Whitby Town for one month.[104] A second successive victory came after Barrett scored the only goal in a 1–0 away victory over Kidderminster.[105] Graham opened the scoring in a 1–1 home draw with Tamworth, who equalised through former York player Chris Smith.[106] A 4–0 victory away to Grays saw Brodie score for the first time since January 2010 with two goals; Harsley and Barrett also scored.[107]

April and May

Michael Ingham was voted Clubman of the Year.

York beat Altrincham 2–1 at home after going behind to a Chris Denham goal, before McGurk scored the equaliser and Brodie scored the winning goal with a stoppage time penalty.[108] This was followed by a 5–0 home win over AFC Wimbledon, Rankine scoring goals in each half and Brodie scoring a first half hat-trick.[109] A seven-match unbeaten run came to an end when York were beaten 3–1 away by Eastbourne, conceding three goals in the first 32 minutes before Rankine scored a penalty to finish the scoring.[110] York's place in the play-offs was secured after a 3–0 home win over Barrow, with goals from Brodie (2) and Gash.[111] Before the home match against Grays, Ingham was presented as the 2009–10 Clubman of the Year, voted for by the club's supporters.[112] The match finished a 1–1 draw, Brodie giving York the lead before Duran Reynolds equalised for Grays on 89 minutes.[113]

The team completed their league programme with a 1–0 defeat away to champions Stevenage.[114] York finished in fifth place in the Conference Premier table,[115] which meant they would play Luton in the play-off semi-final.[114] Brodie scored on 90 minutes to give York a 1–0 home win first leg.[116] York won the second leg 1–0 away with a Carruthers goal, meaning the tie ended 2–0 on aggregate.[117] Following the match, the squad were forced to leave Kenilworth Road through the back of a stand after having missiles thrown at them by a section of Luton fans.[118] The team lost the play-off final 3–1 to Oxford at Wembley, in which York scored from an own goal conceded by goalkeeper Ryan Clarke.[119]
