Obviously not a huge amount going on this midweek, but…
York City Wembley Twice 2012 v. York City All Stars – benefit match for long-serving defender Daniel Parslow, who had to retire earlier this year due to a serious concussion. As posted elsewhere, the club initially weren't going to do anything for Dan, over some piffling technicality about the length of his separate spells not being long enough in unbroken service to "officially" qualify for a testimonial (he did almost 12 years with the club in total), but changed their mind in the face of a fair barrage of criticism.
Anyway, it'll be one of the last night games at Bootham Crescent, and some of the proceeds will be going to Headway, a brain injury charity, so a few decent reasons for attendance.
