Police to investigate video clip that appears to show York player punching fan on pitch
Greater Manchester Police to look into ‘possible assault’
York earned EFL promotion with draw in chaotic finale
Police will investigate a video which seems to show a York City player punching a fan after the Minstermen clinched promotion back to the Football League on Saturday.
An extraordinary conclusion unfolded at Rochdale, where York claimed a 1-1 draw thanks to Josh Stones’ goal in the 13th minute of stoppage time. The point was enough to secure top spot in the National League and a return to the EFL for the first time in a decade, leaving their hosts consigned to the playoffs.
