No doubt this will be celebrated by some. For me whilst he's divided opinion (and certainly he's done some questionable things over the years) he has kept the ship fairly steady in otherwise difficult times for a lot of clubs. Thanks for all your hard work John.

This goes some way towards avoiding conflict of interests issues with the Freemo project and possibly may tempt further outside share interest?

Thank you for all your efforts John. We fans didn't always see eye to eye with you but you were always approachable and tried to explain the reasons for your decisions. It didn't happen on the pitch during your reign, so hopefully it can happen off it and you can be instrumental in getting us a new ground.

Good luck in your new role.

Stepping back but continuing to finance shortfalls. Amazing

But I won’t sell because I still want the strangle hold...and someone who has been part of the current regime (the overarching problem) will be taking charge.

Could help but who knows.

I suspect this is more to do with conflict of interest etc and wanting to get the stadium over the line...or even at a place where we have something other than a Roy of the Rovers type drawing...

Does this increase the feel good factor or take away from a decent result last night?

I imagine there will be lots going on in the background we are yet unaware of.

That sounds to me that Ollie wants to take the club forward off the pitch and being a clever chap will have a plan to do that.

We need new investment so perhaps Ollie will be the catalyst for that.

Interesting times ahead.

Probably a bit of both .
I feel he’s be waiting for a long time to leave the club in a decent position , this is probably as happy as we’ve been for 12 years so it’s as good a time as any for him to step down
