yup I hear he was a bit special to!

Yeah and before the great,brilliant chris hesketh,what about them two Salford centres and Mr Les Bettinson and Salfords finest Ernest Critchley.Yep we were sh.. then but them two guys were Salford through and through.

And that just sums up it all up does`nt it? We havent had a class centre for fu//ing donkeys years.Williams was sh/t in his first year after signing from Sale,Second year improved some.Remember he was playing in a top team then,no screaming when he fuc,,ed of to wigan then aye,unlike Moon.

Are we talking about the same Williams? He didn't come from Sale, he didn't go to Wigan, and made a pretty much instant impact for Salford.

I didn’t want Gleeson due to his past, especially the drugs part (not a good example for a “family sport” to set ).

But after all the problems we have been seeing at the club I find myself quite upbeat about the signing.

And due to a couple of comings and goings, could this mean the takeover could soon be over?

After playing only three matches for Salford in 1988/89 season Peter Williams was put on stand by for the Great Britain tour down under. so it wasn't such a bad start as you say.



He signed for Salford in March 1988 and made his debut on 23rd March against Leigh,he scored a try on his debut and scored five tries in his first five matches and as has been stated earlier he was signed from Orrell RU.



He made 154 appearances( inc 8 as a substitute) and scored 35 tries and his final match was on 24 April 1994 versus Featherstone away.



Remember MM that facts are a piece of verifiable information, please check them first.

We've had one saying Talau was the best thing since sliced bread and now another saying Williams was rubbish and getting all the facts wrong...



...and they wonder why they lack credibility when they post.



Williams was class for us.

I think impending announcement of the tie in with Oldham speaks volumes for the takeover being close.

You're just bigging Williams up Tony because he was your mate at Salford.



Williams was a decent player, but to use the term "class" is very much exaggerated rubbish, Hesketh, Richards,watkins, fielding, was "class" williams was nowhere near those 4.

I don't know who you think I am but I can assure you that you are mistaken...



Class is obviously subjective, seeing as you rated Talau in a Salford shirt I'd say any gravitas you had in your argument falls a little short. Williams was a class act for us, it's just that Hesketh, Watkins, Fielding etc were, at the time, probably world class and I'd agree they are a step-up from Williams but it still doesn't take away the fact that Williams was class.



Talau...

Just like your gravitas has fallen short in this argument as the 4 world class players mentioned above are more than a step up than williams, if i can remember rightly PW wasn't even selected 1st choice for the Lancs squad nevermind the national squad. Class players stick out like sore thumbs in bad teams, PW didn't. Like i've said earlier give williams an extra yard or two of pace then we wouldn't be having this argument.
