bald reynard Posted 20 May 2012 Share Posted 20 May 2012 Today sees the return to the Football League of an ex-City favourite as a Manager. Gary Mills, one of the better City players in recent times, has taken York City back into the League, following the Conference Play-Off win against Luton this afternoon. Mills follows the permanent appointment of two other ex-City players as League Managers recently - Gary Rowett at Burton and Paul Groves at Bournemouth. I think thats 7 in the Premier and Football Leagues - those 3 plus Mancini, Chris Powell, Simon Grayson and Paul Dickov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bald reynard Posted 20 May 2012 Author Share Posted 20 May 2012 Simon Grayson and Billy Davies will be back within the next few weeks. Edit- Grayson just appeared in First post!! After posting, I remembered 'Larry' was now at Huddersfield - and (like Chris Powell) could well be up against us next season (I hope so, Huddersfield deserve a return - and it would be nice for him to 'put one up' on Leeds / Ken Bates for a 'premature' sacking - and Colin W***er for taking the job !).

accessory Posted 20 May 2012 Share Posted 20 May 2012 Remember going to York in 1996 in the League Cup winning run. - was a cracking night out and I'm delighted they're finally back in the league. Would be good to get drawn there in an early round next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daggers Posted 20 May 2012 Share Posted 20 May 2012 Surprised they weren't automatic, York were awesome when I watched them this season and Chambers was magnificent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leicesterisme Posted 21 May 2012 Share Posted 21 May 2012 Is Mark Robins still managing? he was getting a name for himself a few years ago No, not at the minute, resigned from Barnsley in the 2010-2011 season I think it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Posted 21 May 2012 Share Posted 21 May 2012 I didn't like the way Mills celebrated the victory yesterday. York's goal was at least a yard offside yet when Luton's Manager Buckle had the decency to want to shake Mill's hand at the end he was too busy doing an impression of Jesus on the Cross and ignored him. Be gracious in victory and defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereabouts are you in York? Mills has been quality for them. Two trophies in one year too, done an amazing job. He loves the celebrations, probably just got a bit carried away.

I'm not sure what has gone on with him, I remember bits about him from before and he seemed ok, but yesterday he was way too far up his own arse and he came across very arrogant.
