Club historian David Batters was in shock this morning after hearing the news City will no longer be playing at Bootham Crescent from the end of the season.
"It is just one shock after another," he told the Evening Press. "I'm flabbergasted with the whole affair.
"There seems that there is no going back now, but questions are going to be asked why, why, why?
"It paints a very black picture. We can't build a new ground and we can't buy a new ground in the time scale given.
"If we are going to survive the only way seems a ground-share - but I can't think where. There is the Ryedale Stadium or Scarborough, but it is hard to get my head around this."
