Having previously only made a single first-team appearance for Wolverhampton Wanderers, Ryan stepped in to cover for injuries in 2000-01 and enjoyed a short run of games in the early part of the season.
However, he then lost his place and, after requesting a transfer, linked up with former Wolves boss Colin Lee at Torquay United in March.
He made his debut for the Gulls as a sweeper but then moved to right back and made the position his own with a series of assured defensive displays.
He remained a regular for Wales at Under-21 level winning six more caps during the campaign.
When Mark McGhee offered him the chance to join Millwall he jumped at the chance to increase his first team opportunities and joined in October 2001 but was released at the end of the season.
Ryan then joined Cardiff City in August 2002 on a short term contract, moving on to Sheffield Wednesday in November 2002 in a three-month deal.
After helping Hereford United return to the Football League, Ryan joined Bristol Rovers in July 2006 with a two-year contract.
He returned to Hereford United in July 2009 in a one-year deal that was extended to June 2011 in June 2010 and to June 2012 in February 2011.
