Stockdale seeks new club (on social media) after York axe

Former Premier League goalkeeper David Stockdale turned to social media to find a new club.

The former Brighton and Fulham shot stopper has been released by non-league club York City recently.

The 38-year-old and Matthew Lever were both given the boot by York as a result of budget cuts.

A statement read: "York City can confirm the departure of David Stockdale and Matthew Lever from their roles at the Football Club with immediate effect.

"York City places on record, despite it not working out in the end for all parties involved, its thanks to both staff members for their efforts during a difficult campaign and wishes them both well in their future endeavours."

In response, Stockdale wrote: "Well...Anyone need a GK..."

Stockdale was both the club's head of recruitment this term and played in goal on seven occasions.
