'Sup Guy?

Well the Revs threw us for a loop with this one, didn't see it coming at all.  Today the New England Revolution announced the sigining of RW Ryan Guy, 25, from St. Patrick's Athletic of the League of Ireland Premier Division.  Guy does have an MLS past having been drafted by FC Dallas in 2007 but opting to seek employment in Europe instead of signing a developmental contract.

Guy trialed with Crystal Palace and Hannover 96 before finally ending up at St. Patricks's.  In 2008 Guy scored the game winning goal in a first round UEFA Cup marking St. Patrick's first European away match victory.

Guy left St. Pat's in January to return to the States for what according to the St. Pat's website were 'personal reasons'. Guy was very popular to the fans at St. Pat's and his departure was seen as a blow to the team.  We don't know much else about Ryan Guy and honestly don't know what to think about the signing, it will hopefully give us some improvement on the right and be an improvement over Boggs.  Guy will join the team next week.
