To young to have seen him play but from what I have been told he was a superb player and a true Argyle legend.

Very sad news.I can only barely remember him playing but my father used to speak very highly of him and i know he was a much sought after player by clubs in the first division.I played against his son a few times,deepest sympathy to him and the rest of the Williams family-RIP Johnny,a true Argyle legend.

Very sad news, he and Paul Mariner are the two best players I ever saw in an Argyle shirt. Deepest sympathy to his family.

Agree with the comments.

I just about remember him but most Argyle fans will know the name.

RIP Johnny

A great player in one of the all time great Argyle teams. All heart and could hit the ball harder than Wotton.

A player that made you proud to be an Argyle fan.Played for the British Army against Argyle while doing his national service.

He played the first few times I went. All I can remember is that the grown-ups around me made noises of approval. Other than that, I dunno. Is that helpful?

Never saw him play, but a Argyle 'legend' in the true sense of the word.

I also need to thank him for inspiring a sixties kids 'card' that resulted in my avatar!

You placed his image over the 'masked' player

Watched many a Johnny Williams shot, sail over my head in the Demport and into the car park. Occasionally, one flew into the onion bag................. usually with a bit of left to right swerve !

RIP True Argyle Legend.

Way before my time but one of those names my Dad mentions when talking about Argyle. Scored against Gordon Banks in the League Cup SF I believe.

RIP
