you could use a pulley or simply just keep wiggling it from side to side. I had trouble getting mine off the other week but I just kept wiggling it and eventually it came off.

Hi

I am in Ashford Kent and have a tool for holding the pulley whilst you undo the crankbolt, you are welcome to use it if you get stuck.

Cheers
