Andrew "Andy" York[lower-alpha 1] (14 June 1894 – 1977) was an English professional footballer who made 147 appearances in the Football League playing for Sunderland, Coventry City, Northampton Town and Lincoln City. He played as a left back.[3]
York was born in Blyth, Northumberland. He began his career in local football in his native north-east of England before signing for Sunderland,[3] for whom he played just once in the First Division[4] before moving south to play for Coventry City in the Second Division and for Third Division clubs Northampton Town and Lincoln City.[3] Already well into his thirties when he signed for Lincoln, he found himself playing regular first-team football for the first time in his career – he missed only four matches in his first two seasons – and helped them reach runners-up spot in 1927–28. He made 114 appearances in all competitions for Lincoln[1] before finishing his career in non-league football with Newark Town and Scarborough. He died in 1977.[3]
