Derrick was promoted to the first team squad by Paul Lambert and named in the Villa squad for the 3-0 League Cup 2nd Round win over Tranmere Rovers on Tuesday, 28 August 2012 but remained an unused substitute.
Derrick would remain in the squad for the following match the 1-1 Premier League draw with Newcastle United on Sunday, 2 September 2012 but again he remained an unused substitute.
Lambert would name Williams in one further squad as an unused substitute on Saturday, 10 November 2012 before finally given Derrick his debut as a 65’ substitute for Chris Herd in Villa’s 1-1- draw at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday, 1 December 2012.
Despite being named by Lambert in four further squads that season, Williams made no further appearances for Villa and remained with the club until moving on to Bristol City in July 2013 on a free transfer aged 20.
