Farewell, then, Jonny Williams

Jonny Williams is having his medical in Cardiff this afternoon.   Lee Bowyer has said that he will miss his smile: https://londonnewsonline.co.uk/charlton-manager-lee-bowyer-confirms-attacker-is-cardiff-bound/

Views of Williams clearly differ among the Addickted.   For me, he was capable of moments of real skill, but they came too rarely.   His personality made him popular both at the training ground and with fans.

I wish him all the best for the future, particularly with the Welsh language which is extraordinarily difficult for non-native speakers.   His father was born in Ynys Mon, but I don't think he has ever lived in Wales.   Apparently he hails from Tunbridge Wells!

My nephews excuse my lack of facility with the old language, but it hasn't gone down so well when I have needed translation facilities at Sennedd committee hearings.
