John Williams (footballer, born 1968)

John Nelson Williams (born 11 May 1968)[1] is an English former professional footballer who played as a forward from 1990 until 2009.

He left Coventry in 1995 and joined new league side Wycombe Wanderers to start a somewhat nomadic career.

Known as the "flying postman" due to his speed and career before football, when playing for Kidderminster he famously scored against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup 3rd round only for his goal to be equalised in the final minutes.

[4] Williams has since worked as a youth and community worker in Birmingham whilst keeping links with the game as an agent with a sports management company.

[citation needed] At the 1992 Football League Cup final at Wembley Stadium he claimed the £10,000 first prize when he won the Rumbelows Sprint Contest in a time of 11.49 seconds beating amongst others Leigh Jenkinson and Efan Ekoku.
