eaststandtom Posted 1 May 2006 Share Posted 1 May 2006 From a forest website. ''After graduating from Paul Hart's youth academy, Williams made his debut under David Platt in the 1999/00 season. He made a few substitute appearances that year, but by the end of 2000/01 he was starting to establish himself as a first-team regular, following in the footsteps of David Prutton and becoming a fans' favourite in midfield. Having being re-united with Paul Hart for the 2001/02 season, Gareth was deployed behind the rest of the midfield, his talent and vision allowing him to instigate the Forest attack. He had excellent passing ability, a good touch and control, and also showed great imagination that saw him win the club's official Player of the Season award that year However, in later seasons for the Reds, Williams often failed to implement his talents to their maximum potential. He frustrated fans by playing within himself. Many feared that the interest of a number of big clubs, including his beloved Rangers, might have spoiled his game by distracting his focus. Others believed that Hart, who seemed to regard Williams as his "Golden Boy" above all the other academy graduates, was playing the young Scot too deep and not allowing him to fully use his creative abilities.''

NFFC Chris Posted 1 May 2006 Share Posted 1 May 2006 I certainly agree with most of that,he's a lazy tosser who has no loyalty,he only played well for us at the end of 2003/2004 season to attract interest so he could get a move and suceeded,if he starts to mysteriosuly play outstandingly for you I'd be very worried indeed!Judas Well he wasn't making a big step up at the time,you had gone down and we were being tipped for a playoff push,and we know what happend last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anish Posted 1 May 2006 Share Posted 1 May 2006 Yeah, you went down!! He was coming to a club with a better potential, and a bigger stadium and getting away from fans who wouldn't get off his back.
