I'd have stuck with bid, rather than try bids too, but it's no longer my problem.
Cheers for all the messages today. Now please stop. It is not that important, honestly. I was only ever the storyteller, never the story. 1/2
I have announced myself. Can't wait to get started and have had a fantastic welcome from everyone at
@OxCityFC
. First item on the agenda is not to put people staring straight into the sun for photos...
29 years ago today I got married. I have now been married longer than I was single. I think we may be stuck with each other for good now then. Fine by me. Not so sure for The Current Mrs Williams.

I have had so many WhatsApp messages today. Genuinely humbling, and almost every oufc manager of the last 20 years has been in touch, along with so many players, which means a lot.
Next adventure begins Monday. Cannot wait
First matchday today. Lots of positives despite the result and a crowd of over 1, 300 when the game was on TV is a good start.
Quick thank you to everyone who came over to wish me well. Meant a lot.
Going to be a very sad day at Court Place Farm today as we say farewell to Mr Oxford City. Apologies if anyone needs to get hold of me today, sure you'll understand.
'how was your day?'
'OK. Kotaro helped me write some things. Then he got
@JamesConstable9
and James Henry to sign his folding bicycle. Then he gave me loads of green kit kats and pedalled off towards Oxford'
It's a significant birthday day today for my friend Spike. One of the good guys and a real unsung hero. Here we are, pretending to be ice cream men. Someone @ him if you find him, saves me sending a card
Feeling sad today with the news that Dave Nash has passed away. Was Education Officer when I started at The Manor. Good company, loved football, great cricketer, terrible golfer but a kind man who I will miss. Love to Brenda and the family.
See the bloke outjumping the entire Middlesboro defence? That's Hughy Curran. He did that sort of thing all the time. That's why he is still a legend. Brilliant footballer.
Happy 80th Hughy.
I am going to Italy. Unfollow for a week if you wish to avoid pictures of a smug bloke in an unsuitable shirt, drinking Aperol Spritz and pretending to like it.
And obviously Pritchard's Law applies so expect at least two signings, and a new Manager in my absence
