I did a similar thing. I was excomunicated. Sent the King off against a four stack Venician army and he only sodding won! Then he died... of old age... Ahhhhh.

HOWEVER, the Pope still said hell was too good for me. That was it. I levelled Rome and killed the pope. Which was nice.
Round 1 of votes put in a Pole. (I was at war with) When I found his roming army I put him out of his misery.
Round 2 put in a Venetian (again at war) So when he actually landed in England he was soon found by my English Knights, so it was Good Knight Mr Flavious!
Round 3 put in Mr Smith from Peckham and all was forgiven!
What was even better is that Sicliy was laying seige to Rome, so I evacuated. Rome rebbelled against its new Sicilian rulers and became Papal with Sicily being Excommunicated. Glory Be, this is our finest hour!
