Bootham Crescent has been the home of York City Football Club since 1932 when the club leased the land from York Cricket Club in order to replace their former home, Fulfordgate. The club eventually purchased the ground outright in 1948 for the princely sum of £4075. The ground spent five years with a different name thanks to sponsorship by Nestle, with KitKit Crescent hosting games during York’s spell in the Conference. York City has as interesting history as a football club. It was first founded in 1908 as an amateur football team before folding in 1917. A new club was formed in 1922 and played their games in the Midland League. The club joined the Football League in 1929.
