York City admin responds after posts on club’s social media during late night out goes viral

The York City Twitter admin responds after several posts on the club’s social media during a late night out goes viral.

The Minstermen had been celebrating after winning promotion from the National League to the English Football League in dramatic fashion.

Extraordinary scenes at Spotland. Going into this game, the final day of the season, York City sat 1st, with 107 points, and Rochdale were 2nd, with 105 points.

Rochdale scored in the 95th minute to make it 1-0, but after a pitch invasion halted the match, York City equalised in the 103rd minute to win the league title.

A tweet on the club’s account read: “100 likes and @Jeffking034 will get his chopper out!”

Then a Twitter user’s video of some porn was shared onto the club’s Twitter.

By Sunday night, @todge01 asked: “admin do you still have a job after last nights shenanigans”

To which the club’s Twitter admin replied: “Yes. Lesson learned to never let the media phone out of sight late in a bar ever again 🤦‍♂️🤣”

In reply to Rochdale’s post of their manager giving post-match reaction, a tweet of “Weeeeyyyyy dickhead” emerged from York City’s Twitter account.

Josh Stones had an interview with talkSPORT, and that was quite something as seen above…

Ally McCoist said: The man who scored the incredible goal and we’ll probably never have to buy a drink in the city again. It’s York City’s Josh Stones. Josh, a very good morning mate. How are you Josh? Oh dear me, I’ve just seen you. Josh, you’ve either been out celebrating mate, you’ve had a wee run in with Lennox Lewis last night or something?

Josh said: “No, celebrating from Saturday to Sunday.”

Ally: “I swear to God mate. You look exactly how Andy and I would have been. Andy, to answer the question, mate, how many times have you watched it?”

Josh: “About 15 times. think as a group, I’d say we went to a Chinese restaurant, sat down, had dinner, and we all just watched it, and over and over and over. It just gets better every time.”

Andy Townsend: “That voice, Josh, sounds like Brazil and McCoist when they’ve been out the night before a breakfast show at 6 in the morning. But that, I mean, what an amazing day. And look, talk about as a group of players, what you went through in that period of the game when they scored and then the chaos that ensued after that was just incredible, wasn’t it? It really, really was astonishing.”

Josh: “Yeah, I think that’s the way the season’s gone, think so many last minute goals for us and for them have probably left us both a bit heartbroken. I thought it was done genuinely when they scored. That’s the season over and then a of the boys said there’s one minute left, we’ll get one more chance. And I didn’t think we would, but thank God we did.

“It was on us to win the league, I think we said as a group, we’ve been relying on teams all season, take points from Rochdale and if we could pick one team to do it, it’d be ourselves. And we had the chance to go do it.”

Andy: “Did you, Josh, did you know straight away as soon as you bit it, it’s over the line? Did you know straight away?”

Josh: Yeah, I think there’s an angle from the side and you can see that goes all the way in.”

Ally: “I see the one thing I said to Andy, Josh, straight away obviously, no VAR, no goal line technology, by the way, I’m happy with that, I’m delighted with that. But the one thing you can see, there’s no reaction from the Rochdale players actually, so that’s how I thought straight away, it’s over the line mate.”

Andy: “Well Josh listen, I know that voice is gradually starting to fall away just a little bit more, so come on, you’ll have to tell us about what happened the night after the game and where you all ended up and what time you finished?”

Josh: “We went straight to the stadium with our families and friends, had few drinks, just a few. And then we got a text from a nightclub in York saying, you’re all welcome to come, we’ve got a surprise. So we ditched family and friends and we all went, think about seven of us got back to mind in the morning and then went straight to Wetherspoons for opening.

“Enjoyed it yesterday in the sun, went down to revolution and…”

Ally: “You know, you look as though you got a few revolutions going on in your barnet right now me I’ll tell you brilliant.”

Josh: “I couldn’t even get to the shower”

After some taunts, and following on from their hangover, York City tweeted: “Through all the heartbreak, elation and emotion. We want to take this opportunity to have a word on our opponents, Rochdale, and commend their incredible season.

“We have both shared the greatest title race in English football history. Forever a memory that we will always be a part of.

“We wish them the very best of luck in the play-offs ❤️💙”

Before the game, a joint statement was issued by York and Rochdale: “This Saturday’s game brings an end to one of the most thrilling, exciting and unpredictable title races in football history. Both ourselves and Rochdale have the chance to write our names in National League history.

“The National League is no longer a non-league competition. It is effectively a League 3, with fully professional clubs operating at a level equal to or higher than many of those in League 2.

“We both understand how important this game is to both clubs and supporters. We both pledge now that whatever happens tomorrow, we will both continue to fight for 3UP.

“Both clubs sit on over 100 points. One of us will have to fight once more in the National League Play-Offs. However, we both strongly believe that this shouldn’t have to be the case.

“We call on the National League, Football Regulator, EFL and Premier League to come together immediately and resolve this issue, so that we do not have to highlight this injustice year after year.

“For both sets of supporters attending the Crown Oil Arena this weekend, we say thank you for being with us all season. The passion you’ve shown for both clubs has been felt across the world. This game will be seen far and wide. We want to showcase this league for all its potential. Keep your support in the stands, not on the pitch, and let’s all protect the game we love.

“Thank you!

“Rochdale AFC & York City FC”

Jeff King also had a good time, his social media feed updating fans throughout the celebrations and night out just as entertaining…
