Tim Parker: Forward announced as Wellmen’s latest summer recruit

Tim Parker has been unveiled as Taff’s Well’s latest signing of a busy summer transfer window.

The forward joins the club from Cardiff Metropolitan, where he was playing in a second spell with the Students.

The 24-year-old was part of the Archers side which narrowly lost out to FC Progrès Niederkorn in the preliminary round of Europa League qualifying last summer, replacing Jordan Lam just after the hour mark.

Parker, who has experience of playing in the Cymru Premier, scored nine goals in the 2019-20 season, which he spent primarily with fellow Cymru South side Llanelli Town AFC.

The club have already confirmed the arrival of Jordan Knott, Josh Allen, Louis Gerrard, Lloyd Toghill, Joe Shephard and Corey Spencer ahead of the new campaign.

The last few months have seen a comprehensive overhaul at Rhiw’r Ddar, with a new coaching set-up announced and Lee Kendall appointed first-team manager.

The Wellmen finished 14th in last season’s Cymru South standings, and only avoided relegation because STM Sports failed to obtain a Tier 2 Licence.
