York City Football Club can confirm that Stuart Maynard will be leaving his role as First Team Manager, with immediate effect.
This has not been an easy decision, and it is not one the board has taken lightly. Ultimately, it comes down to a difference in direction and vision for the football club.
We recognise that, from the outside, this may look like a strange or difficult decision to understand. But we believe that in the long term, the football club will be in a stronger position because of it, another step towards the vision we, as custodians of this club, believe will deliver sustained success.
Like every one of you, we love this football club, and we would never make a decision we didn’t believe was in its best long-term interests. We hope our track record of improving year on year has earned us a degree of trust, and we understand that not everyone will agree with, or fully understand, this decision right away.
We would like to thank Stuart for his contribution to York City FC and wish him well for the future.

Circus club supported by some of the biggest bellends I’ve ever encountered on social media. Thank god we have proper owners. |  |
| Anyone seen ‘Trev’? Is he off playing golf with Duffy? |

Wow, that's a shocker......I thought they loved him to bits? He has spent all pre-season building up for League 2 with plenty of signings and now he's off. He did inherit a decent squad only a year ago and must have been sick of our Club nearly ruining his legacy.
Watching with interest......who next. |  | | |

A reminder of how lucky we have it, chaps. Uggla classless, as per. | | | |

Ver good manager - especially before our play off final at Wembley when he said it would be 2-2 and Rochdale would win on penalties 😲 |  |

Give it less than 3 years before Uggla tries to install himself as manager.
We are so so lucky with the Ogden's and no matter how much money the Uggla's try to chuck at York I'd rather be us every day of the week. | | | |

The protestations by Uggla sound suspiciously like previous versions from both bury and more recently, Dale
Having people of the integrity of the Ogdens at Dale is an unbelievably great outcome of the latter, but let's not call what we have "lucky" - it was fought for, tooth and nail, and we deserve such an outcome
The York saga has legs for a while yet. Will be interesting to see how those who signed for them, plus the existing squad, respond to all this, and whoever takes over in the dressing room [Post edited 26 Jul 18:18]

Not sure what the bookies are saying. | | | |

The big fannies have locked their forum down bury stylee.
Shame that as it was hilarious reading yesterday. Their millions of fans all threatening to return their season tickets and vowing never to go again. Self-proclaimed best fans in the world last season as well. They’ll off be back off supporting Leeds now. | |

I'd love to know what the difference in vision is, did the Uggla's have aspirations of champions league football in the next 5 years [Post edited 27 Jul 8:02]

Spot on, i'm expecting to be banned from that forum today after offering them some free advice. As you suggested in a previous post, York fans are the most deluded and entitled fan base i've ever encountered, it's like they've lived in a time warp and the last fifty years of nothingness didn't happen. They view themselves as a big club when in fact they did exactly the same thing as us, got very lucky due to wealthy owners. Take those out of the equation and god knows where both clubs would be.
Welcome back by the way. [Post edited 27 Jul 8:20]

Cheers, it’s good to be back. Especially knowing it winds ‘Trev’* up immensely.
Just been sent a pic of a post on X from a York fan who was suggesting new managers. He put Bielsa on the list ffs. Reminds me of the time a bury fan suggested they should go for Paul Clement when he was assistant manager at Real Madrid.
Some football supporters live on another planet to the rest of us.

Bielsa make sense when you think about. Not in any realistic sense, but Leeds fans love Bielsa.
On a slightly related note I found out that someone at work is Salford City fan at work, but just a Salford City fan....not a Man U fan that doesn't go to games or a Bury fan that doesn't have a club anymore (Pub teams don't count). Just a Salford City fan! Didn't think they existed. Gonna go search for Unicorn or Big Foot or something now. | | | |

Sounds like they have had a fallout - maybe the club need to sell someone to cover the ownership legal action and he stamped his feet. It must be serious to be doing it just a few weeks before the new season. If the owners wanted a new direction, surely they'd have done this back in May. [Post edited 27 Jul 10:34]

This looks like "it worked for us last year to improve so let's try it again"
Aside from a major fallout behind the scenes, I just can't see any justification for it from the outside. |  | | |

Would make for an interesting headline…
“Unhinged Uggla unseats unruly underboss”
Ok, it’s not exactly “Freddie Starr ate my hamster”… |  | | |

Lindsey confirmed. And his first game is against his old team Crawley.

It just gets better and better.
I never thought I’d see that day that bury were overtaken as the biggest comedy club in football but York have absolutely pissed all over them. | |

Their Owner is taking the criticism of the decision exactly how you imagine he would take it .
Current quotes posted:
"Never let people who only see they outcome make you question the decisions they never had to make"
"you go from Jesus to Judas real quick"
That thinskinned toddler make me even more grateful for the Ogdens.
Can see that relationship between the owners and the fans becoming even toxic real quick. My prediction for the season is there'll be some lifetime bans handed out for some hurty words said on the internet soon if this is his reaction to valid criticism of an obviously poor set of decisions. | | | |

So they sack the manager and appoint a head coach…  | | | |

Nobody knows the real reason for the decision though. Something serious has obviously happened, it might not even be football related. I don't buy into the notion that the owners would allow Maynard to take the team to a training base in Spain last week if they intended to sack him a week later. A very good manager at that. The reaction from the York fans is interesting, their loyalty isn't with their wealthy owners who have funded the success. I wonder how that makes the Ugglas feel? [Post edited 27 Jul 15:58]

Strong rumours that the chairman's getting too involved in player signings and trying to influence team selections also - similar ones were around when the previous manager was in charge which led to his premature exit too | | | |

If that is the case then the Club has a big problem. | | | |
