It’s the the right decision for Williams to try and rebuild a career elsewhere. I say this with a lot of regret as when he first played he was seen as an equivalent talent to Zaha and Arsenal were looking at him. Having met him briefly on a few occasions he also seems a good approachable guy and it’s a shame that injuries have not allowed him to fulfil his potential with Palace. I wish him an injury free season when he can show what a talented player he is.

Had those injuries not occurred at crucial stages in his development who knows how good Williams could have been. As it is I'm sure we all wish him the best of luck.....even at Charlton. 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith. And, I'm a locksmith.' (Leslie Nielsen)

I would have played Mutch and Williams against Grimsby. Really don't see the point in playing first team. They have done well and need a rest. Who will play now? Kaikai, Dann, Wickham and Punch? Red and Blue Army!

Originally posted by Hrolf The Ganger Good luck to the guy but frankly, it is a mystery as to why he has been on our books for this long. He has never been good enough. So never good enough for us but good enough to be in a Welsh side that got to the Euro semis? Really sad to see him go - would have liked him to have been on the bench for us this season - a midfielder who can run with the ball and draw a lot of fouls. Remember him being on the train going to the Cup Final. Palace through and through.

Originally posted by ChrisGC Superb, really hacking through the lunch ticket bods now. Really, really disappointing 'career'. Sat in our reserves for the best years of his career, the occasional loan to keep the profile up. He'll bang a couple of goals, get a two year deal and then sit in their reserves for the duration I expect. That's twice you've mentioned "lunch tickets". Are you hungry or something? Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

Such a fine line in football. JW was so close to being a really top player but fell just short. The outcome has been years on the fringe. Shame because he would have been our biggest star ever (well alongside WZ and Wrighty).

Remember him being on the train going to the Cup Final. Palace through and through. Correct. Putting aside Gareth Bale, I would bet on Palace to beat Wales any day of the week. By all means be nice about a long serving player but don't delude yourself that Williams was ever better than average Championship standard. Why some fans have this blind loyalty to certain players is beyond me. I wish him well I really do, but in truth, he is another unnecessary burden lifted from the wages bill.

All the very best for the future Jonny. Lovely guy, who has been a credit to our club throughout. Although I think it's for the best, sad to see him leave. Good luck and continue to do us proud. "You can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead" Stan Laurel
