All the best Taff and thank you for all those last ditch tackles, aerial wins and being a threat at every corner and set piece. You will also be welcome back as a half-time special guest appearance and letting us know your future adventures overseas or back in the UK!
Great player, probably the calmest CB we've ever had. Also one of the best CBs we've had, such a shame that he's had injuries recently. Thanks for everything
Good luck to Taff - have been missing his YouTube vids as they were an interesting eye opener into the life of a professional footballer that you don’t get to see often. Especially during the mic’d up match days.
I was kind of expecting the news of him moving on today as I am sure I heard Sam Grace say a day or two ago (I think on an injury update) that they would be sitting down with Taff on Friday and see where he is. It didn’t seem like it was quite a “will he be in the match day squad” kind of sit down chat.
But Ho Lee Phuc I did not see a move to Hong Kong on the cards.
Good Luck to him. He’ll go with a fondness from me as he seemed, in his own way, to want to connect to the fans through social media and even just standing in the home terrace that time on a match day.
Good luck Ryan. Takes some sweet and sour balls to up and leave to the unknown. Time to dumpling the past behind you and by the time you've come back, I hope you've wontons.
He was a marquee signing in that championship season. We surely would have stayed up if he and Uche were available for just 1 month more than they were.
Always had a mix of class and steel, but the amount of games he missed only increased, and it's arguably just this season where we've not noticed his absence, such was the quality of other options we've had.
I always had a rye smile watching Tafs videos when he was talking about changing his diet (which seemed a regular feature) to help combat injuries and have natural anti-inflammatories and what have you, as I was thinking "You're doing all that and yet your injury record is getting WORSE. Get down to Burger King, that'll sort you out"
Probably explains why I'm not a professional footballer. That and my complete lack of talent.
Kowloon Walled City is worth reading about. It was demolished in the 1990s, and was apparently the most densely populated area in human history, a big influence on William Gibson, the source of Ridley Scott’s aesthetic for Bladerunner, and the setting for the Van Damme film Bloodsport.

Good luck to Ryan who did so well for us.

Just waiting for the "he has the turning circle of a junk" quip.
All the very best to you Taf. Peterborough away will live in my memory for a while yet. Top man

Best of luck Taf, a Rolls-Royce when the parts were in working order.
shame that his injury record restricted his appearances for us, when he was fit he was great for us, wish him good health and success in Honkers

All the best Taff. PS I really loved that video a great watch!
Taff has been brilliant for us. Calmness personified.
Im convinced had be been fit at the beginning of our Championship season we’d have comfortably stayed up.
As long as he doesn’t ask for directions for Revs / Revolutions over there he’ll be fine…
All the best Taff, hope it goes well for you.
The only player I've ever actually bumped into at Cressex filling station!
"You don't say!"
For a fleeting moment I thought Honkers was maybe a new bistro in Marlow, but sounds a bit downmarket and garish for that genteel town.
They have a ‘spoons now. House prices will be tumbling.
This goes on in football across the pitch in every game. Much worse in fact.
Good luck Ryan. Takes some sweet and sour balls to up and leave to the unknown. Time to dumpling the past behind you and by the time you've come back, I hope you've wontons.
"Can I order one large number 6?"
He was a rock in our defence, good luck Taf!
Working way too hard there, chief.
Interesting use of the word ‘rock’ in there….
(He was a class act though when we were able to get him on the pitch. Really hope it works out for him)

The old Kai Tak ‘international’ airport was terrifying. Looking into apartments as you came in to land. Gone but never forgotten!
Pre photoshop!
Lee Man come from 0-2 down to win 3-2

Surely Taf is way above this level
It doesn't quite feel right does it.
Though great cultural experience etc.
Smart kit
