Ex-Staff Chris Williams Leaves

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

A loyal servant leaves:

 

[Manorlounger]

Tempted, or driven away?

 

[billyturleyscurlywurly]

Been a while since we’ve heard from Niall McWilliams too considering all the stadium news too.

 

[Finlandia]

Wow - if someone like Chris leaves then very very serious questions need to be asked. The clubs executive team are shambolic, the disconnect is appalling.

Benson is not qualified; look at his track record!!

Club is losing an absolute legend!

 

[Paul Cannell]

Good luck, Chris Williams.

 

[Chris on a Bike]

Well he wrote the match report today

As I’ve said on a number of occasions, Tim Williams and Adam Benson need to get out of our club. They are so out of touch of what it’s like to run a football club like Oxford United and it is never a good sign when long standing staff members who are life long OUFC start leaving.

Mick Brown and the finance bloke who'd been there since the Manor days fall into that category too.

 

[Northstandboy]

Is he leaving at the end of this season?

Huge huge huge boots to fill.

 

[Ewes]

He’s not the only long-serving staff member to leave recently. Club accountant shown the door after 20 years.

 

[Northstandboy]

Hang on, leaves as in he’s gone????

Or leaving????

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Hang on, leaves as in he’s gone????

Or leaving????

His last game was today. He officially starts his new job in a couple of weeks.

 

[Northstandboy]

A HUGE deal use brushed under the carpet!

“I spent so much time with my son at OUFC and I can’t wait to come back with him, and my mates, as a customer.”

LOOOOOOOOL

He's been printing and folding all the new stadium drawings

 

[Chris on a Bike]

Cheeky little dig by saying he looks forward to coming back as a 'customer' !

 

[Chris on a Bike]

Didn't the head groundsman finish last week too?

 

[unification]

“I spent so much time with my son at OUFC and I can’t wait to come back with him, and my mates, as a customer.”

LOOOOOOOOL

The one line from that that gives away exactly why he is leaving.

Well done, Chris Williams. Enjoy whatever you do next.

As for our club - a vote of no confidence in GF, TW and co is brewing. Just what is going on?

 

[Northstandboy]

Cheeky little dig by saying he looks forward to coming back as a 'customer' !

That is telling!

“I spent so much time with my son at OUFC and I can’t wait to come back with him, and my mates, as a customer.”

LOOOOOOOOL

I read that “customer” phrase too and it immediately made me think there was a clear dig here, that can only ring the alarm bells very very loudly.

Because the man is a self centred w****r who seems to think that OUFC and all us fans should be, in some way, grateful that he is here!

 

[Dilla]

Technically he hasn't left yet which is why the club might not have mentioned

I was about to post the same thing!

They could have said it’s his last game though.

 

[Thomas/Brock/Jones]

This is dreadful news, among all the wonderful new Stadium positivity there is something underlying that isn't good, at all.
Clubs soul is at stake I'd say.

 

[Steve Gilbert]

They could have said it’s his last game though.

Staff member is working his last game for the club who has worked for OUFC for over 20 years…no mention of it.

Random linesman who is working his last football match…makes sure he mentions it.

You couldn’t make it up!

 

[Shosho]

They could have said it’s his last game though.

PRB announced the Head Groundsman’s last game on Tuesday. Would think the club could do a clap and a wave whilst presenting him something after 20+ years at the club.

All the best to Williams in his future challenges.

The rate at which the club is turning over staff is alarming
