SHAUN Urquhart is a barking mad York City fan.

The trainee teacher not only signed himself up as a member of the newly formed York City Supporters' Trust but his dog too.

Shaun, who lives in Harrogate, admitted Bruno, a Labrador, has yet to watch the Minstermen in action.

"But he has got a red collar", said the 30-year-old, who is married to Julia.

He explained: "We don't have any kids and the Trust needs as many members as possible."

And when it comes to using his vote in future Trust elections Sean is in no doubt as to how Bruno will cast his ballot.

"He'll do as his dad tells him," he pledged.
