I thought he was great for us in his prime, but sadly now long past his best. Not played much over the last 5 years.

i thought he'd go on to have a very good career in the top division. I thought he was that good. Shows how much I know
Weren't we talking about a possible England cap at one point?
He was great for us, made Loovens and Gyepes look good.

Bit fond of the sauce wasn't he ?

I liked ol Roger though. Was good for us.
Still only 34 relatively good age for a defender ,I'm sure there were rumours that Arsenal were looking at him in his prime ,bet he never thought then he'd play for Pune City in the Indian league .
Thought he was up with with the great defenders that city have had on thier books
We did bid for both players, as did they. We got Roger Johnson in the summer of 2006. Williams signed for Swansea in March 2008. We bid for Williams repeatedly.
His bravado masked some of his weaknesses though, I'll never forget the game at Wednesday when Quincy put in a rubbish ball that was headed clear, and Johnson ran over to scream at him despite the fact he was closest to the ball and we were 1-0 down. Also, when Johnson taught the Canton about 25 new swear words when Mark Howard flapped at a ball vs Barnet. Odd bloke.
Always a 100%'er and lets be honest the average fan loves that
Remember when he got clotheslined by Claude Davies....Warnock's Palace team
Turned up for training at Wolves pissed, didn't train on as much as he could have.
He was very good in his first Premier League season with Birmingham. I'm sure I read that he got more defensive blocks in than anyone else in the division that year and an England cap was a distinct possibility at that time - it all seemed to go wrong for him after he signed for Wolves.
Yes he was frozen out at Wolves by Jackett after falling out of favour. I think he played for West Ham at our place in 13/14 and then again for Wednesday down in Cardiff and was good for both. I think he only played 5 times for Charlton last season though.
