It is with so much sorrow that I have to tell you that my eldest Son Andy passed peacefully away yesterday (Sunday) at the Duchess of Kent Hospice in Reading....age 57years. Andy had been a supporter since he was 9years old and was a s/t for nearly all of that time. We rarely missed a match together - and only two home games this season. He was at Wembley and also the last match against Shrewsbury. I know he gained great strength from the Steve Dyer story - who was a great inspiration to all fellow cancer sufferers. God Bless.

Tear in my eye as I type this Bob, and my thoughts are with you from the other side of the world.
You've been a good dad to Andy and the Oxford United family will be with you both at this difficult time, and forever.
RIP Andy.

I don't know you or Andy and I can only imagine how difficult it must be to send out a message like this, but I hope that you are able to find some peace in the future. RIP Andy.
