Dan Parslow

Parslow joined The Minstermen in the 2006/07 season, becoming a regular starter and later club captain.

Dan was named Clubman of the Year in 2009, leading the team to the FA Trophy Final, before winning the accolade again two years later having played in every game in the 2010/11 season.

Perhaps Dan’s finest hour in a York City shirt came in 2012 as a member of the ‘Wembley Twice’ squad, winning the FA Trophy and Conference Premier Play-Off Final, the latter of which sealing the club’s return to the Football League.

The defender was named Clubman of the Year for a third time in 2013, becoming the first player to do so in the club’s history.

Dan departed in 2015 but returned in 2017, winning the FA Trophy again in the same year, before retiring from playing in 2019 due to a head injury having made over 400 career appearances, 260 of those in York City colours.

Speaking on becoming a Club Ambassador, he said: “Having played for the club for so long and still living in York, it’s an honour to be approached to represent the football club in some capacity.

“I look forward to sharing my experiences with the York City faithful, representing the club when asked to do so, and supporting the team from the stands!”
