Just because he's signed for Gillingham doesn't mean he is going to live there.
There are plenty of lovely places within a half hour or so drive away.4 -
What’s wrong with him taking the better offer? Especially when it’s much closer to home? He’s got to look after himself and his family, not worry that he’ll upset a few people at Bradford. They’ll get over it.The Red Robin said:
On top of the Yorkshire Dales or shithole Gillingham. Righto.Swisdom said:So Bradford to pay for him to stay up there for one night and he decides Gillingham is the better proposition. Thats a waste of £25 for Bradford…
pretty sure Jonny just got married - maybe she didn’t like it up there? Can’t blame her - it’s like an armpit up thereOffered more money, simple as that. Bradford had a medical and announcement agreed with him. Dick move.2 -

Nah he was obviously going to live on Leeds Road above a takeaway 🤣The Red Robin said:

He's from Pembury, which is driveable from Gillinghamblackpool72 said:Just because he's signed for Gillingham doesn't mean he is going to live there.

My mate worked with him at P****e and said exactly the same. Whatever else happened, he gave us a real burst of energy when he came on at Wembley in 2019.SoundAsa£ said:Always struck me as a real solid individual.12 -
He was at the home leg of the play off semi last year. I was chatting to him on the way down the stairs from the west upper. He is a top bloke. Shame he played for Palace1

It's OK, there was a special CL bye-law passed that permitted short spells at Selhurst, this was to accomodate Sir Chris who started out there.Todds_right_hook said:He was at the home leg of the play off semi last year.

I do remember him coning on for Palace against us in the FA Cup and ripped us a new one! Was unplayable that second half.0

But Palace are 3,000 years old, 17 years is nothing.North Lower Neil said:

Released from Gills

A player who's always been more popular for his personality than his performances.2
-
No doubt some crazy fools will ask the question about bringing him back, despite the fact he's just been released from a crap League 2 side, based purely on the fact that he won some free kicks for us half a decade ago6
-
He looks to move the ball forward and attack , there’s no place for that sort of intent in our team

With 9 subs is it worth giving Williams and Chuks 6 month pay as you play deals as cover? They know the club and are fan favourites.26

Good idea. Keith Peacock as well...Scoham said:With 9 subs is it worth giving Williams and Chuks 6 month pay as you play deals as cover? They know the club and are fan favourites.8 -
Sign him up & play him in goal.1
-
Sounds like a great deal to me. Sign me up and I'll match Luke Chambers' goals and assists record this season...2

Strange but true:
Jonny Williams spent 17 years with Palace and had 55 first team apps and spent 2 seasons with CAFC and played 60* games. Jonny also had 94 apps for Gillingham over the last 3 seasons.
I can confirm that Jonny Williams is one of the nicest guys around as he speaks to you as if you are a friend on the couple of occasions when I got to chat with him.
* 60 games to match his 60 minute battery when starting a game.

Still jumped out of a tackle though and posted indirects on social media at Bowyer.4 -
"Indirects"
Totally forgot about that. Absolute gold!1
