It's a great thing that the league is 1. making sure ownership groups are committed to the money required and making sure the right stadium is in place and 2. not saying what cities are involved as that just builds false hope. It's good that they are doing it right under Noonan when under Clanachan they failed.

So for me, I'll believe that there are new owners for York when it's official, and new expansion teams when they are kicking a ball. But it would be great to have both.
I wonder if Red Bull is the one coming in for York. Big football empire, would not call them world class myself.
