internetjef Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 would have liked to see him given a shot at the centre mid role for us this season but obviously not to be good luck Gavin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaz Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Just the type of player we need and never given a run in his best position - surely worth a go?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newarkred Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Shame. Always thought he could have been good as our needed creative midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC Jordan Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Strange that he was released. I guess a move fell through considering it took so long for it to be announced today. Never really gave a real chance here in my opinion and best of luck in the future Gav. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanatopia Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Good luck to him. On paper looks like a strange decision but we don't know the inner workings of BCFC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derk94 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Rather annoyed at this. Gav is a great footballer who was never really given the chance at AG. Had potential to fill the creative midfielder slot as well. Big shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bristolcitysweden Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 Sorry to hear this but I'm confident he will get a fair chance elsewhere. Certainly a player I will follow in the future. Also, as quite a few have mentioned, a true top man! All the best mate!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 As many have said, williams very much an enigma, quality football, could pass well, create and score goals, but never really got good chance at city, despite skuse, Elliott, LJ and others all having off spells during his spell at the club. Never understood why we signed him, never understood why we rarely played and don't understand why we have released him. Good luck though.....please become a city legend and join Yeovil or Swindon and help relegate rovers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy082005 Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Just the type of player we need and never given a run in his best position - surely worth a go?? Maybe, but three managers didnt see Gav as part of their plans, or not good enough to be so. One of these managers was GJ, who probally knew him better then most. Not good enough in my eyes, and time for him to move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never clear to me which position he was signed to play in. Flattered to deceive and didn't really dominate in any of the performances I recall. But one great memory - against Charlton away... Good luck to him. Like David Noble seemed to lack the fight to establish himself at Championship level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_BCFC Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Its ashame he never really got a good enough chance. I wish him all the best So long as he dont end up at the sags. I can see him going to yeovil where he has succesful loan spells Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 as i said earlier in the post gw is joining rovers the deal is done Really, that would be strange really. I would have thought that if he wanted to stay local and the highest level possible he would be going to Swindon they have the best chance of staying up, other than that Yeovil. At least those teams and their managers try to play football. I really wouldn't have thought Gav was a Penny type player and certainly not one he would sign for a relegation dog fight. Maybe the Gas think they are down and are looking to next season, but again from his own point of view he must believe he is better than league 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 rid of him as gary thought it was a threat to little lee's place in the time...... Gav wasn't that great could get a regular start under 3 managers dispite what ppl say he did play 58 games for us about 20 as sub and only scored 4 goals and 1 assit so he's not quite the creative force ppl are making him out to be, That and he was injured every other week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonwheeler Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 A really nice guy and on his day could certainly play a bit, especially going forward. Always appeared to me that the management thought that 'he was to much one of the boys' ie enjoyed a laugh, liked to hang out with the likes of Trunds, Nobes, etc. Sad to see him go especially when it appears we have limited options in the midfield department, especially height wise and vision wise? Also even more sad that on a day when Gavin Williams is released and Adriano Basso signs for Wolves and the Ashton eight are remembered on National television (all guys who clearly gave their best and in some cases their careers for BCFC0 that there are certain current employees on the payroll at Ashton Gate who appear to be quite happy to be trousering very big money wage wise (By most of our standards) and giving NOTHING in return, no names no pack drill, Nicky Hunt. We can only assume that Keith was offering 'Hunts' services to everybody from Barcelona to Severn Beach third 11 but we can only presume that everyone else in football have the same opinion of him as we do??? Really hope that Gav gets fixed up very quick, good luck and thanks for all your efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame we didnt get the win our performance deserved that day the Derby goal was beautifully taken. GJ can't have had any illusions about him...he brought him in and promised we'd see the best of a talented player...not sure we ever did really.

Monkeh Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 you can count that as 4 managers as he didn't really get game time at ipswich ether and they thought they mugged us when we signed him, He's a league one footballer at best the same as the over-rated noble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
