Up The City! Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Delighted with this. For a while I've said we have lacked experienced Championship players. Now we've got one I hope this will encourage others to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Toulouse are buying him for €3m, not as cheap as I thought. Clearly other people have noticed how good he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P'head Red Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 2 minutes ago, cynic said: We still have a relatively young Williams as a left sided CB. He's played over 100 games for us and rarely let down himself or the team. Kept out of the team by Baker last season, but he may yet come of age - pre-season is vital for him. His fowl throw this season stuck in my head, was fairly inconsistent when called upon last year. I'd still like to have him as a squad player though.

BarmyArmy Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Great signing. Very experienced and level headed. Will be invaluable on and off the pitch, a player I have always liked. Just the type of signing we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For these to be regurgitated onto Facebook is totally unforgivable in my eyes. I'm not sure if LJ finds out about social media nonsense like this but I'm sure if anyone in the higher echelons of the club are aware of this then Marlon will be 28k light in his monthly wage packet in the very near future due to this indiscretion.

Flint and Williams are the two we have. I'm choosing to ignore El-Abd. It's madness to think one more will be OK. Minimum 4 first team quality CB's needed.

Good point, completely forgot him! Even so I would be more than happy to see another 2 come in. Assuming there are no first team plans for El Abd. A couple of injuries and all of a sudden you're struggling to name a CB partnership - not a situation we want to be in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 I think we've got a cracking player here. Someone in work asked me what type of player he is. I suggested style wise he was like Darren Fletcher. Is that a fair comparison? I wouldn't see him as here for the money....his career doesn't point to that.

BS4 on Tour... Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 6 hours ago, Taz said: This is a great signing, on paper he's a step up from Elliott with his experience... Wouldn't agree with that - Wade had played well over 600 games before he joined us, O'Neil has played just over 400 games. He doesn't have more experience but he is undoubtedly a brilliant signing...just what we needed, and likes getting promoted to the Premier League!

HUGE difference is that over 200 appearances for O'Neil are in the Prem, against Wade's 38. Massive upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
