In our final preview of the clubs the Hatters will face this coming season in the Conference we take a trip to York - another former Football League side now plying their trade in the top flight of non-league football.

Nickname: The Minstermen

Manager: Martin Foyle

Ground: Bootham Crescent

Last season: Conference 17th

2008/09 average attendance: 2,295

2009/10 BSP title odds: 22/1

Previous meetings:

Luton wins: 10

Draws: 3

York wins: 2

The Hatters hold a healthy advantage in meetings with the Minstermen with 10 victories from the 15 past encounters - including the double against City the season the two sides last met in 2001/02.

The match at Bootham Crescent, a 2-1 victory, was probably best remembered for Steve Howard's two penalties - missing a second time after he had missed his first attempt and was allowed to retake by the referee.

Of the seven fixtures between the clubs at Kenilworth Road, the Town have won all seven.

York's only league victory came in the two sides' first ever meeting in March 1967 at Bootham Crescent. That was followed two months later when the Hatters beat City by the same scoreline at Kenilworth Road!

Recent history:

After being founded in 1922 and joining the Football League seven years later, the Minstermen lost their status as a League club following relegation from League 2 in 2003/04.

Their relegation that season was down in no small part to the fact they failed to win a league game in their final 20 matches of the campaign.

After a 17th place finish in their first season in the Conference they missed out on the play-offs by three places the following season in 2005/06.

In 2006/07, however, the Minstermen did make the end-of-season lottery but lost at the semi-final stage to Morecambe who went onto win promotion themselves.

2007/08 saw City fail to replicate the form of the previous campaign and landed up marooned in midtable, eventually finishing 14th.

Last season saw another frustrating league campaign in the Conference for the Bootham Crescent faithful when finishing in 17th place, narrowly avoiding the drop with a late resurgence in form towards the tail end of the season helping them survive demotion to Blue Square North.

It was a different matter in the cup competitions though, and manager Martin Foyleguided the club to Wembley in the FA Trophy, but the Minstermen lost 2-0 in the final to Stevenage Borough.

FACT: York's Bootham Crescent ground is official known as KitKat Crescent and has been since January 2005 following the club's sponsorship with Nestlé who are based in the City.
