Wales Player News 19th May (Championship)

Australia manager Pim Verbeek have criticised Middlesbrough’s decision to force Rhys Williams to play through a pelvis injury. Rhys is having treatment on the injury, which could cause him to miss out on playing for Australia in the World Cup. Isn't that what I said would happen? Sometimes it's horrible being right. I've dreamed of seeing a former Wales under-21 player at the World Cup. Of course, in my dreams he didn't play for Australia but you have to be willing to compromise in football.

Preston North End manager Darren Ferguson would like to buy centre back Craig Morgan from his old club, Peterborough United. Preston are however in financial difficulties so they probably won’t be able to afford him. Ferguson says Paul Parry is unlikely to be fit in time for the start of the 2010-11 season. Paul injured his knee in December and hasn’t played since.

Yeovil Town manager Terry Skiverton thinks that Shaun MacDonald, who had two loan spells with his club this season, has a big future. Unfortunately, Skiverton seems to feel Shaun’s future is with Swansea City rather than Yeovil. Shaun is currently in contract talks with Swansea.

Swansea City midfielder Matty Collins had a trial with Bristol Rovers in April which I didn't know about. No news on whether that came to anything.

Swansea City’s Kerry Morgan spent time this season on loan at Newport County, helping them into the Blue Square Premier. Manager Dean Holdsworth wouldn’t mind having him back.

Former Coventry manager Chris Coleman has been linked with Swansea City. For the moment, Swansea still have a manager, Paolo Sousa but that might not be the case for long.

Jonathan North is set to be released by Watford after not playing this season. He’s played for Oxford City on loan but the 19 year old goalkeeper hasn’t played for Watford this season.
