Paddy McLaughlin testimonial match

York City take on Peterborough United at the York City FC ground on Tuesday 28 July, kick-off at 7.30pm. It's a testimonial match for Paddy McLaughlin, and it's the final event of his testimonial year, which has been running to mark his ten years of service to the club.

Ten years is a long time in football, and this match is the capstone to a whole year of events held in his honour. The opponent is Peterborough United, so it's a proper match on the pitch, not just a friendly run-out. The York City side will be wearing one-off commemorative shirts for the game, and those shirts will be auctioned after the final whistle. The money from the auction goes two ways: some to Paddy's testimonial year and some to his chosen charity, Menfulness.

If you've been following the testimonial events over the last few months, this is the one that brings it all to a close. It's a mid-week game, so it's one of those Tuesday nights where you can head down to the ground and see the team in action without having to clear your whole weekend. The match is at the York City ground, kick-off at 7.30pm on Tuesday 28 July.
