Jonny Williams injury looks to be worse than hoped.

50-50 Chance of making the squad for Tuesday away at Rotherham .

But hopeful for next Saturday at home to Coventry.

At £50K he’ll be handy as a squad player imo. If he’s available for half the matches left it’ll be good value.

Andrew,

He was a free transfer , we took the remainder of his contract on £50,000 in total wages.

We know what we get a player who averages 14 games incl sub a season , so to be fair your right if he makes a few games .

But, I hope they do not extend his contract for next season.

We already have Isaac Vassell.

And just lost on Greg Cunningham.

I said when he signed that it's as close to risk free as you can get in football.

Costing us practically nothing, in football terms and a very short contract.

His fitness was always a worry and we know he won't play many games.

But you can say the same about Tomlin, and we're paying him a lot. Nobody can really say we're getting value for money for Tomlin's wages.


It's down to Williams to get himself fit enough to play and prove he deserves a longer contract.

If he doesn't, we haven't lost a lot of money.

Tomlin been stealing a living from cardiff the day he signed. 1 good season and that's fu.... it.

Is there any update on Isaac Vassell regarding his current injury/fitness status?

Agreed. Was it even a season. I doubt we'll see a 100% LT this season either.

Football is a young man's game and some players can not take the rigours of being a professional footballer. Jonny is one of those.

Apparently Len Noakes has bought a double bed from ikea so he can fit Vassell and Williams on it at the same time

Hello Annis. Surely this situation can’t continue until the very end of his contract?

Hi Rick,


The famous Transfer Committee make all these decisions , transfers , contracts and have the final say , your guess is as good as mine.

All I can say is Our club is in so much debt due to years of bad deals , contracts , signings etc etc and never learns .

It's unfathomable the amount of mistakes made.

Williams was not injured when he signed so Why is club getting blamed for a ccfc player kicking his team mate and injuring him? Tomlin had same problem kicked by team mate and was out for awhile? "Pathetic"

Who is blaming the club? ?

For Williams latest injury .

By the way Allan, the club never gets blamed anyway it’s the famous Committee or shall I say three wise men :lol: :lol:

But no one had actually blamed them either :thumbright:
