He's probably had enough after the plane crash etc he was ill for a long time. Who can blame him.

Certainly was.  He has his own business as well and does some work with Wycombe.  Good luck to the bloke, one of the few genuine guys I have dealt with aty that level.

Good Luck to him I wish him all the best, a genuine nice guy and always helpful

But to be fair he is probably fed up with sharing the S & M managers job with Ben Lambert.

Best of luck, Sully, loyal servant to the club for many years, deserved better than the treatment he's had over the past year.

Nor to be fair have the fans collectively had nearly as much as Mike has had to put up with over the last year, starting with a plane crash and not really picking up much from there.

Whoops, didn't mean to minimise Mike's treatment  :oops:

Hope no-one took offence.

No, I'm sure you didn't and sorry if it seemed like I was having a pop (I wasn't) but before everyone went off on one about what a rough time we've all had, thought it was worth injecting some perspective.

And yes, arriba, the pilot has now recovered AFAIK

 Can I suggest a TEF creative workshop where the papier mache, of the damp ruined cut-outs are turned into Frank Sidebottomesque heads of the main players in the farce that is the STFC Boardroom.

  A celebration of the autumnal equinox, could then take place in the bucolic fastness of SY's back garden, which could involve the ritual burning of the head effigies and other fertility rites.
