Sad news indeed. He wasn’t on here over the last few years but we’d still catch up on occasions. I shall miss him.

RIP mate.

Couldn’t place the name until this.

Was he the guy that used to wear the cowboy hat?

RIP Mikero

Very sad to hear. Was always good company when Dad and I came down to our occasional hospitality days. Shall raise a glass to him on Saturday I'm sure.

Not sure I ever met him in person but always sad when a fellow O departs. Remember him well from the MB in its various iterations, always entertaining and loved that he always signed off his posts. RIP Mikero and condolences to all who loved and knew you.

RIP Mike.

He’d often come to games in his leathers, riding up from the Sussex Coast on his motorbike. And he did a good stint on the LOFT ctte in the Hearn years. Would often have a chat with him in the Supps Club, and met him for some Kent & Sussex non-league action a couple of times.

In boardin’ terms, as well as his ‘signature’ on every post, he was a mod on the short-lived Orientitis board (was that a Bushy thing?) in the interim period when Matt Poodle killed the old Snitz board. Think ValJac might have been another…and CheekyMonkey (I wonder what happened to her?).

I’d forgot he was involved with the old Orient Ladies team that Ling binned off.
