Welcome!
The words we’ve all been waiting for… Good evening! And welcome for the first time ever to the LNER Community Stadium as York City prepare to christen their brand-new multi-purpose stadium against AFC Fylde in the Vanarama National League North.
After an emotional farewell to Bootham Crescent where fans have filled the terraces for 89 years, the City faithful will set their gaze upon new surroundings tonight… but a worldwide pandemic means they’ll have to do so from the sofa!
With fans unable to welcome the Minstermen out into this magnificent 8,005-seater venue tonight, we’ve got you covered right here on the YorkMix live matchday blog with full match commentary and reaction, as City seek to grace their new home with a victory.
