Ryan was one of last season’s January signings, having become a free agent after departing Southern League Premier Division Central outfit Redditch United. The full-back made 13 appearances for the Bluebirds, as he found a regular place on the right side of the defence. The 20-year-old scored his first goal for the club in the 6-1 win against Cefn Druids at The Rock in April, and signed a one-year contract extension in May.
