Tommy Williamson Trialing with Grays

[The Great Eckscape]

Apparently he played the other day against Colchester. I'd be surprised if he will make it at this level after what he showed with us, but I guess it might just be the case of finding the right club.

[A Non E Mouse]

Think it's a matter of finding the right club.

 

I felt he did OK - no miracles, fairly solid and seemed to keep it simple when passing.

 

Unfortuantely, many players were in and out of favour last year. At one point I wasn't sure if Keeling was ever going to be given a regualr spot.

williamson is a good player, coming through youth system and playing for england at leicester shows that, non league footi is better than people give it credit for, thats why you see more players making the transition to league, good luck tommy

[CIFCislander]

I agree with A Non E Mouse. He didnt really do nothing special just kept it simple. i feel in some of the games he did play in, he pitterd in and out of games. I dont feel we will miss him and with some of the players grays have got in the midfield, couldnt see him playing to much if they did sign him

Williamson I felt was a bit too lightweight for the Conference. He got knocked off the ball too easily at times.

[ronin]

And Bertie Brayley has played a couple of games on trial for Aldershot.

[YELLOW]

You have to be joking!!! He really isn't good enough for Aldershot!!!

[Golden Boots]

leave off bertie, better player than is given credit for!!!

[The Great Eckscape]

A fantastic player, just REALLY REALLY selfish! If he would play as part of a team he could be a league player. Doesn't have the ability to do it all on his own so should use the players around him.

and a fruitcake

[Golden Boots]

fruitcake, i give you that, shocking at pro evolution though!!!! tenner says he still at thurrock this season though, hes in the squad to face Great Wakering Rovers on saturday, i hear you boys are sending over a full strength squad tonight!! should be interesting, we looked good against charlton the weekend, nathan evans and martin buglioni are sure to cause problems up front!!

[ronin]

Williamson has signed for Grays. They have also signed another player who apparently played for us, never heard of him myself.

[YELLOW]

Have also signed Kightly. The signing of Glenn Poole from Thurrock is hardly earth shattering. Not a bad player who scored a few for Thurrock and Redbridge but not sure if he's Conference quality.

 

Will be interesting to see if Williamson can gel in midfield alongside the likes of Thurgood and Johnny Martin.

[YELLOW]

Today's Echo states that Dennis Oli could be the next player on his way to Southend.

 

Grays won 8-1 against Welling on Saturday with Oli scoring a hattrick!!!!!

[Staying-up]

Looks like Southend are doing their best to destro Gray's chances in the Conference this season. Looks like Grays are becoming a nursery team to Southend just like West ham are to Chelsea.

[CIFCislander]

Dont like southend or grays but if it means reducing thier chances of grays staying up then im all for it.

[The Great Eckscape]

I saw Oli against Exeter in the Trophy, he ripped them apart and the Exeter fans clapped him off the pitch. I reckon he will be a good signing for any club in the lower leagues.

Signed a 1 month contract with Aldershot today, with a view to agreeing a longer term deal.

[ronin]

Must say i am suprised, Bertie has all the skills to be a top striker but he just doesn`t seem to get his act together often enough.

[Taking the Mick]

Brayley was a key player in West Hams great youth side.

 

Has all the ability under the sun but is a waster, grade A waster.

 

He needs to sort his life out before its too late and his career passes him by and he regrets it.

 

I would take him at Grays if I thought he could sort his head out, he is same mould as Freddie
