August Governance Report — now live for members

A month ago we launched the Governance Report: a monthly, plain-English assessment of how York City FC and its shareholders are meeting the commitments made in the Club's Articles of Association and the All Shareholders Agreement. Eighteen areas, seven sections, each one tied to a specific clause.

The August edition is now in the members' area, and it's the first one that can show movement. Every area carries a mark showing whether it has improved, got worse, or stayed the same since July, and each section carries the same at a glance.

Some things have improved this month, and the report says so plainly — we'd rather record progress than only record problems. Others haven't moved, and the report says that too, along with what the Trust has asked for and when we expect an answer.

We report on ourselves on the same basis. The Trust's own governance is one of the seven sections, and it isn't all green either.

It stays a members' report, because as a shareholder we see confidential information about the Club, and reporting frankly to the people we represent is a different thing from broadcasting to the world.

We're looking for a new Trust Secretary.

It's one of the most important roles in the Trust: keeping the Board organised, convening our AGM, and making sure the Trust is run properly on behalf of members. Voluntary, with a full handover from Paul.

You don't need to have done it before, and you don't need to be a lawyer or an accountant — just organised, reliable and keen to help York City fans have a real voice.

If you'd like an informal chat about what's involved, email [email protected]

We are delighted to announce that the Trust Board has voted unanimously to co-opt our Trust Secretary, Paul Sankey, onto the Trust Board and to appoint him Vice Chair.

Seth Sowerby, Chair: "Paul has been an outstanding Trust Secretary. He took on the work that rarely gets noticed but absolutely has to be done properly, and he has modernised how the Trust governs itself in the process. I have no doubt at all that he will be a great Vice Chair."

As Paul joins as a co-opted member, he will stand for election by members at our AGM this autumn.

It also means we are now looking for a new Trust Secretary. You don't need to have done it before, and you don't need to be a lawyer or an accountant — just organised, reliable and keen to help. Full support and a proper handover provided, with Paul still around to help.

Our Supporter Raffle winners have been drawn.

First prize – Gordon Gunn, who wins a pre-match meal with Julie-Anne and Matt Uggla in the Directors Lounge at the LNER, along with match tickets for a League Two fixture.

Second prize – Ben McCluskey, who wins a framed team photo of the 2026/27 Men's First Team squad.

All three winners will be contacted directly by email over the coming days to arrange their prizes.

Our thanks go to Julie-Anne Uggla, who generously donated all three — and to everyone who entered. Every ticket sold helped pay for a week of preparation that we hope repays itself several times over between now and May.
