have you rung the sister-in-law yet?
Erm yes, but she won't speak to me, I wonder why The response I got was 'fuck off Paul' followed by a dial tone. One can only guess she's a bit upset.

Apparently he made some sort of claim to the pox supporters club at weekend which caused a bit of a stink,I doubt that was the reason but they seem happy he's gone.. Suggestions what he said on a postcard He told a group of supporters in the pub before the Lewes game (bearing in mind that their fans have been calling out for official communication from him for weeks and he's been in hiding) that he'd all but sorted out getting the backing to buy back the stadium from Kassam except the "investors" had withdrawn following a (fairly mild) press release from OxVox (their Trust). So apparently these mythical investors had done so little homework on the club they were happy to sink in millions on his say-so but got cold feet when they found out from a supporters press release that actually the club was in quite a lot of debt and that the chairman wasn't the thoroughly good chap and astute businessman he'd made himself out to be. Basically he was trying to cover up his own fuck-ups by blaming the supporters trust in such a ridiculously transparent Scooby Doo villain kind of a way ("And I've bought the stadium back by now if it wasn't for them pesky kids") that his position became untenable. Although I don't know whether he compared it to being a lot like buying a house.

Did you give them any tips on how to be a public punch bag in disputes between club and trust?

Don't think they need any tips from us. Merry's pub perfomance apparently led to chants of "If you all hate OxVox clap your hands" from a (minority) section of their fans during the Lewes game. Which he presumably found temporarily gratifying until it also led to him being forced to stand down for being crassly embarrassing. From what I can gather, they've gathered quite a bit of support from being attacked by him and the new chairman has already been in touch with them pledging to improve relations and open proper dialogue

He didnt need much of an excuse to leave though did he?
If they dont get the Kassam cancer out of their club they are dead.

Problem is, from what I can tell, that Merry's reign has been such a disaster, Kassam at least looks competent by comparison. He may have robbed them blind (metaphorically speaking of course) but he could at least run the club better than Merry did, if only so he could get HIS stadium deal through. There but for the grace of God and all that

It shows me that we have to stay out of div 2 at all costs....one tragic season and going out of the league is not worth even contemplating.
