Just as bad and we deserved nothing from the game.
We are going to struggle to score goals with what we've got at the moment and that will see us dragged backed towards the bottom four.
Get rid of Williams and free the money for someone else.
He wouldn't score if he played every game between now and the end of the season.

I think you are being very harsh on Williams.

He has got an excellent goalscoring record at this level (36 goals in 77 appearances for Aldershot between 2013-15) and it is up to Nicho to get the best out of him. Nico strikes me as someone who is only able to manage one type of player - the tyre flipping, off to the gym after training, 100% committed, run through brick walls type of player. A good manager needs to have the ability to deal with and get the best out of all of his players.

I would agree with this. Surely KN knew what he was getting and that is a mercurial player. Judging by KN's comments on the radio, Williams is not the only player 'not buying into' the KN/Simon Jeffrey gym-freak approach. It can hardly be said to be a glaring success anyway.
