Rhys Griffiths on trial?

On pasoti rumours they feel we have the 6'3" 32 year old striker on trial. He has scored over 180 goals (in the Welsh league) since 2006 and has won their golden boot/ leek for the last few seasons. Has just signed for Port Talbot.

Although he was in Ireland with Port Talbot on Monday-

Port Talbot's Ireland Tour

Looks like him that's for sure.

180 goals in 181 games for Llanelli, admittedly in the Welsh League, but I don't mind giving someone like this a try in our league.

He's a big guy and obviously knows how to score so i hope this works out.

32 year old striker from the welsh league. This seems to be getting worse.In fact,even if the guy is not signed or trialled,it still beggars belief that Argyle have sunk so low as to be rumoured to be considering someone of that age and pedigree.

A big lump who can score goals? Why not? Just to get us scoring and out of this league.

He could have played in Ireland on Tuesday and be in Plymouth now.

I have seen him play on a number of occasions. In fact I used to live very close to Stebonheath or if you prefer, Yr wyf wedi ei weld yn chwarae ar nifer o achlysuron, mewn gwirionedd Roeddwn i'n arfer byw yn agos iawn at Stebonheath.

I take it you had more to say but had to wipe down your screen first

I can translate that.

"This bloke is crap and don't touch with a rabies infected bargepole".

Is he any good Lee? I'll expect an answer after you've wiped the phlegm from your keyboard/monitor

If it is him, he's having a trial. If he can hit the net as many times as Feeney in training, oh hang on

If it is him and he is a right handful, we've got Purse and Blanchard to test him out on, then why not take the chance? Some players get better with age and at 32 he's not exactly over the hill for League 2. If he's not up to it then I'm sure it would become apparent pretty soon and nothing lost.

Coming soon....

An Argyle player from a pub league that you've personally seen play on a your local sports field!

It seems pretty shit looking at it initially but if he's good enough for one/two seasons in League Two to play a part in a side that pushes towards the top of the league, his age/pedigree is irrelevant I suppose. Those are big ifs though, which is why he's on trial I suppose.

I think he would be a great signing. There is an untapped market amongst our Celtic diaspora.

Not Dane ffs

At best!

At that level!

The thecnical ability in the Welsh Prem is that of say Confrence North/South.

Just gone and purchased a new laptop it got soaking wet.

So if he's good enough to score a goal a game at that level, it's not inconcievable he could make the step up.

What mould is he Lee-big lump who draws others into play, creative link-up man, goal poacher or something in between?

Just go brent FFS

So you think he should what...sell the club and land to someone who'll gift the club lots of money to spend? Or will merely loaning us the money suffice, or perhaps paying off all historic debt so that all money can go towards the team? What if no such a person exists?

Just interested in the rational behind "Brent out".

And Argyle are the only ones who have recognised his talent(?). Got to be an agents punt. Nothing ventured nothing gained I suppose but really?

I really am trying to be excited about the coming season, but on reading this "I CONTINUE TO BE UNDERWHELMED". Still I'm sure uncle Carl knows what he is doing!

Innocent till proven guilty. Justice for the Taffy One!

I hope we get him.

Always liked 'Restoration'.

Is this a serious rumour? A 32 year old striker from the Welsh league? Things are worse that I thought.

Still, not to worry, we probably won't be able to afford his wages anyway.

I guess if we get him on a free and he comes good, what's really to be lost? Good luck to him if he comes.

I just wish we could sign a name that would get the adrenalin flowing.....
