I am surprised they haven't tried to get Jonathan Woodgate and Ledley King out of retirement - they have played about as much football as this bloke has in recent years.
Unfortunately the poor lad is on a hiding for nothing - such is the history of desperate signings we have made under this regime and our inability, because of the situation we find ourselves in, to attract anything other than a player with more baggage than Lady Gaga on tour.
This one of those tactical news announcements prior to any from of protest to appease the fans? Million miles from doing that
From a positive viewpoint, English Champ experience and seemingly not a bad player but as always, with the constant negatives shrouding anything this mob do, a fitness gamble and could be a crock. Trying to cut corners and get players on the cheap, as per
good pedigree, one of three brothers who are pro footballers, Australia international, father from Kent, mother from Mumbai, he's versatile and will allow Diarra (when fit) to concentrate on midfield ..
SO .. welcome Rhys and all the VERY best of luck .. look forward to seeing you in Yorkshire (pool any 1 from 3) later this month
Typical response. Not started a game for us yet and already condemned. Good luck Rhys.
Typical response from someone who doesn't understand. Nothing to do with the player, he is, well was, a very decent player. It's the system people are moaning at and the type of players we're constantly recruiting I.e. Knackered , hardly played any football and with a good chance of becoming injured.
With any player we sign we all want them to be successful, but again we are putting a player in with very limited playing time and essentially getting him fit for Boro.
If he gets injured again we are back at square one.
It really shows how bad our team is that a player out for nearly 2 yrs can hobble into the team
On the positive side he is quite experienced, has been club captain so may also add some desperately needed leadership on the pitch. On the negative side he won't be match fit and it's 28 days. If he's the first of several and the others are match fit, could turn out to be useful. Let's give the guy a chance!
However doesn't get RD and KM off the hook. The important event today is 5pm not 3pm anyway

If there's any space left in the treatment room!
What a fucking shambles.
Our saviour has arrived.

Only Rhys Williams I know of is the disgraced 400 metre hurdler son of JJ the former Welsh rugby international and Commonwealth Games athlete.

Oh welcome and good luck Rhys, you're gonna need it, sport.
Because Fraeye can't.
Agents must absolutely love Katrien.
let's at least give him a chance.
