York City Football Club, a professional association football club based in York, North Yorkshire, England, was founded in 1922. They were elected to play in the Midland League for the 1922–23 season.[1] After seven seasons in the Midland League, York were elected to play in the Football League in 1929 and were placed in the Third Division North.[2] The team reached the semi-final of the 1954–55 FA Cup, and were defeated by eventual winners Newcastle United in a replay, which is the furthest the club have reached in the competition.[3] York played in the Third Division North until the 1958–59 season, when they were placed in the Fourth Division on league reorganisation.[4] They won the first promotion in their history this season, after finishing third in the Fourth Division.[5]
York were promoted to the Second Division in 1974 and the 1974–75 season saw them achieve their highest league placing after finishing in 15th place.[3] Two successive relegations and a finish of 22nd in the Fourth Division saw the club apply for re-election to the Football League at the end of the 1977–78 season.[3] York won their first and only title after finishing first in the Fourth Division in the 1983–84 season with 101 points,[3] becoming the first team to reach a three-figure points total in a Football League season.[6] The club's first play-off success came in the 1992–93 season, against Crewe Alexandra in the final.[7] After a 1–1 extra-time draw, York won 5–3 in a penalty shoot-out at Wembley Stadium to earn promotion to the Second Division.[8] The following season saw York compete in the Second Division play-off semi-final, where they were beaten 1–0 on aggregate by Stockport County.[9]
York were relegated to the Conference National after finishing bottom of the Third Division in the 2003–04 season, ending 75 years of Football League membership.[10] The team reached the 2009 FA Trophy final in 2008–09, which was played at the new Wembley Stadium, where York were beaten 2–0 by Stevenage Borough.[11] The 2011–12 season concluded with two victories at Wembley; after Newport County were defeated 2–0 in the 2012 FA Trophy final,[12] York's Football League status was restored with a 2–1 victory over Luton Town in the 2012 Conference Premier play-off final.[13] The club endured successive relegations from League Two to the National League North in the 2015–16 and 2016–17 seasons,[14][15] but finished the latter with a 3–2 win over Macclesfield Town at Wembley in the 2017 FA Trophy final.[16] York spent five years in the National League North, being promoted to the National League via the play-offs in the 2021–22 season.[17]
As at the end of 2023–24, the club's first team had spent 2 seasons in the second tier of English football, 38 in the third, 32 in the fourth, and 22 in non-League football.[3] The table details their achievements in first-team competitions, and records their top goalscorer and average home league attendance, for each completed season since their first in 1922–23.

- ^ York were elected to the Midland League for the 1922–23 season.[43]
- ^ York did not enter the FA Cup in the 1922–23 season as the club was formed too late to apply.[43]
- ^ After eight reserve teams withdrew from the Midland League in the summer of 1924 to form the Midland Combination, two competitions were formed to ensure a full set of fixtures.[44] The first competition concluded in February 1925 with 28 fixtures having been played, and the second was organised into subsidiary North and South sections.[44] York competed in the North section, finishing with the following record: P 14 W 7 D 3 L 4 F 21 A 18 Pts 17 Pos 2nd.[44]
- ^ York were elected to the Football League Third Division North for the 1929–30 season.[45]
- ^ When the Second World War began, the 1939–40 Football League season was abandoned with three matches played.[46]
- ^ York played one league match at home before the 1939–40 season was abandoned, which was played in front of a crowd of 6,000.[47]
- ^ The club played 239 competitive matches in regional league and cup football between 1939 and 1946. Guest players were permitted, and results and records from this period are not included in official statistics.[48]
- ^ From the first round to the sixth round of the 1945–46 FA Cup, matches were played over two legs.[49]
- ^ Scored 31 goals in the Third Division North.[50][51]
- ^ York were placed in the Football League Fourth Division on League reorganisation.[4]

- ^ Lost in the play-off semi-final to Fleetwood Town 1–0 on aggregate.[62]
- ^ The 2019–20 season was disrupted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The National League was suspended in mid-March 2020 and the clubs voted six weeks later to end the regular season programme.[63] Teams had not all played the same number of matches, so it was agreed to construct final league tables on an unweighted points per game basis.[64] York's 81.529 points per game placed them second and meant they qualified for the play-offs, in which they were beaten 2–0 by Altrincham in the semi-final.[65]
- ^ After the 2020–21 season was disrupted by COVID-19 pandemic-related issues, including matches being played behind closed doors, testing requirements, and a perceived lack of adequate government support, the National League clubs voted on whether to continue their season. As a result, the National Leagues North and South were declared null and void in February 2021, at which point the northern clubs had played between 11 and 18 matches.[66]
- ^ Because of COVID-19 restrictions, the first five of York's seven home league matches in the 2020–21 season were played behind closed doors. The last two were played in front of COVID-restricted capacity crowds of 400 and 627.[67]
- ^ Promoted to the National League via the play-offs, beating Chorley 2–1 in the eliminator, Brackley Town 1–0 in the semi-final, and Boston United 2–0 in the final.[68]
