Jason Alexander McGill (born April 1966)[1] is the chairman of York City Football Club, a professional association football club based in York, North Yorkshire, England. BiographyMcGill played football for the reserve team of then non-League side Wycombe Wanderers whilst at university in London.[2][3] He grew up as a York City supporter and made a donation of £50,000 to the club while it was undergoing financial difficulties.[2] He joined York City as a director after the Supporters' Trust completed their takeover of the club on 26 March 2003,[4] eventually taking the role of managing director in September 2004 after Steve Beck resigned as chairman.[5] McGill was heavily involved in negotiating the deal for York City to gain full control of Bootham Crescent, after over 99% of the shareholders of Bootham Crescent Holdings voted in favour of the deal in January 2005.[6] He also secured sponsorship from Nestlé Rowntree for Bootham Crescent in January 2005, which saw the ground renamed KitKat Crescent.[7] The York City Supporters' Trust voted by three to one to accept a takeover offer made by McGill at a meeting on 6 June 2006. His company J M Packaging offered to invest a substantial sum into the club, in return for a majority shareholding.[8] He took the role of chairman at York by the start of the 2008–09 season.[9] His sister Sophie Hicks was on the board at York as Communications Director until stepping down in May 2016.[10] He is Managing Director of J M Packaging Ltd based in Malton.
