With just over a day to go before the window shuts, is there any news about Williams? Is he coming back, or not?

i suspect they are trying to find another loan for him as we potentially don't have an option to terminate the loan and united don't want to be lumbered with his wages.

There have apparently been rumours about his behaviour, but I can confirm its worse than we thought

He’s barely featured, so we need a back up that much?

There has been a clear lack of quality cover. At one point of the season he made it look like Harry Clarke was going to struggle to play again this season. When Clarke was in the team at the beginning of the season, Williams was good cover for Clarke and vice versa. Ideally you would want to players competing for the position rather than one who gets the position if fit and the other just being back up.

We need cover for Davis that isn't a midfielder being played out of position.

Injury prone, big step for him to come back here from Gillingham, I think we should move on now.

United/us trying to find a loan for him so we can use the wages elsewhere otherwise why wouldn't we have sent him back if we aren't happy with him?

There is 100% other issues, I won’t post it on here, but I’m not overly convinced he’ll be back.

If Davis got injured I think our race would be run, as things stand now.

Assume this means the Sheff Weds experienced option is not longer happening.
Which is a shame as he's in the form of his life.

I wonder if Williams has settled into the Ipswich culture yet, think a focus for McKenna.

The thing that is weird about it is that KM has left the situation up in the air. If it were an open and shut case we would have just terminated the loan.

Humph is back up now and it’s be good to get him out on a decent half season loan to L1 if we can.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

It’s a bit of a sensitive issue, so can see why McKenna hasn’t completely closed the door.

So potentially 18 or so games of ‘missing due to illness’ to be spun… with the occasional sub appearance, picking up a yellow card

Oh how I wish these off-pitch issues (which I am yet to find any detailed gossip about, anywhere) could just be resolved and we can have him back. There was a run of 2/3 games where he was world class. Then suddenly 'illness' and he was never the same. He's perfect otherwise - already acquainted with McKenna, and his history with Nodge.

He is out of contract in the Summer I believe.

I think you and I may be the only people who don't know.

If anyone feels like sharing my dms are open........

Regardless, if we could get him back in the form (and I assume headspace) from earlier in the season, then I'd be happy to keep him here.

Add me to that list - I have no idea about the story that is untold (and left in the dark on this TBH) but I am interested in whether it means we will ever see the good Brandon Williams back this season. If the answer is "give it a couple of weeks and he will be back and firing", then happy days.

And I am assuming that "I think he is going to stay" means stay at Ipswich for the remainder of his loan rather than stay at Manchester?!

I’m another one who has no idea about the rumours doing the rounds. With the position we’re in, we need to be certain about whether he can cover or not for the rest of the season.

Perhaps McKenna would like Williams back here as a player, as a fit & focused Williams would be a big asset to Town, so he's hoping his "issues" are resolved. As it was a season long loan & if he isn't formally recalled by Man U, he can return to Town & play at any stage of the rest of this season.

How do you know McKenna has left it up in the air. All of this could be totally beyond his control and wouldn’t mind betting there’s some pretty onerous clauses in the loan contract about termination etc.
