York are currently flying high in the National Conference Division 1, they are looking favourites for promotion to the Premier Division and if they win their games in hand would go top.

"We won’t be underestimating them" Bobbie Goulding remarked. "I know York Acorn from my St Maries days and I want a really professional performance from my lads. The longer they are in the game, they are in with a shout, so we want the game sewn up in the first 20 minutes. I’ll be turning out a full strength squad, certainly the first 13."
