York City invite manager applications, immediately get inundated with Football Manager heroes

York City really should have known better by now...

The League Two club have opened up their current manager's job vacancy to the public and invited applications for the successor of Russ Wilcox. But, this being the age of chancers and characters on social media, the club's administrators have a real job on their hands scouring through all the phony applications from Football Manager and FIFA 16 kings.

It started with a feeler.
