Regarding Oz
My Mum has known Oz for many seasons & i've got to know him since the 'covid' seasons quite well.
As we all know he would get up at all hours to enthusiastically contribute on most topics Leeds United, offering his match-linking info providing many Leeds fans an opportunity to view a game often from distant shores which was appreciated.
He was also candid enough to share his health difficulties often in a humorous way & would bat off politely any forum insults that came his way.
Behind the scenes he was a special friend for me.
Anyway, as ever, sometimes forum crossed-words may get out of control which can be taken to heart, particularly for persons with ongoing health issues.
Of late Oz has simply felt enough was enough for him & told me so.
So, Oz is now going to do what is best for his health (quite correctly) by taking time out to reflect, enjoy his Spring/Summer & hopefully a few on here will reflect that often many people read Leeds United forums but choose not to participate for a 'variety of reasons'.
This forum can be so positive for many folks reading it whether coping with illness, family issues, loneliness & even helps some from becoming too withdrawn from society but sadly any Forum can also be quite harsh comments wise, now & again.
I am sure in time, hopefully soon we shall see Oz again if he sees fit as every forum desperately needs active participants to survive.
Keep in touch Oz, if only on the matchday threads.
I got your message Oz & thank you very much for your company over the years. I hope you enjoy all those moments you've been looking forward to doing, mate - enjoy them all cobber !
"Your friend for life"
