Who’s Oor Willy?

Mike Williamson

Another story another possible signing, as we await confirmation or denial that we have/haven’t signed Pompey’s Mike Williamson, let’s see who the lad actually is…

On hearing his name I thought he might be the truck driver that lives round the corner but that was Mark Williamson, Hi Mark…

After a bit of thought, I remembered him from Watford, he was the lad last year who decided he was unfit to play and then promptly got sold under a cloud to Pompey, a controversial move at the time as I recall so of course I Googled him, and I was right, what I didn’t know is that his stats aren’t particularly good, at all.

Both at the start of his career and his time at Watford and Pompey for that matter have come to more or less nothing, I’m not even sure he’s had a game at the south coast outfit, someone will correct me on this I’m sure.

Anyway, I’m sure Mr Hughton knows what he’s doing, unless there’s an air of panic, why do I do this? I worry immediately when it looks as though we’re panic buying, is Taylor off to Everton as is rumoured amongst those that know all, but never know much really.  Is our very own Mr Whippy, Fabricio Colocreamy off, let’s face it theyr’e both very sell-able assets right now…I’m wrong, Williamson will just be cover – time top open a beer and relax, let the Prozac do it’s thing, life as an NUFC fan is always uncertain.

UPDATE

Resident statto Rexn, has just reminded us that Steven Taylor played alongside Williamson when they were both at Wycombe….jobs for the boys maybe?

As an exiled Geordie living in Torquay I remember him coming through the youth team here and playing a dozen or so games before going to Southampton for £100k. I do believe he played with Steven Taylor at Wycombe too while Tony Adams was manager there. The fact he can’t get in the pompey team doesn’t look too good but I’ll reserve judgement till the lad plays.

Yeah you’re right about the link up with Taylor…

I was under the impression that he hasn’t played at Pompey not due to ability, but due to the fact they’d have to pay out more cash If he was in their first team. If he does sign why not judge him on how he performs rather than crucify him before he begins.
