Keith Ryan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Keith Ryan (born June 25, 1970 in Northampton) is an English former professional footballer, now a coach at Wycombe Wanderers in Football League Two.

Ryan started his career at Berkhamsted Town and was signed for Wycombe in August 1990 by Martin O'Neill. 'Rhino', as he is affectionately known by Wycombe fans, played in over 500 games for the club and scored over 50 goals, including Wycombe's goal in the 2001 FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool.

Following the departure of manager Tony Adams in November 2004, Ryan was appointed caretaker manager until the appointment of the current manager John Gorman. Gorman rewarded Ryan's service for the club by making him an assistant manager, along with fellow Blues legend Steve Brown. Ryan retired from professional football in April 2006.
