Grant Ward now at Brizzle Rovers 10:23 - Jan 30 with 1775 viewsringwoodblue

Apologies if this has already been posted but as I was browsing all the Jan transfer deals done, I noticed Wardy has gone to Brizzle Rovers on a free from Blackpool. We might come up against him when we play them in a fortnight.

Grant is only 28 but his career doesn’t seem to have blossomed anywhere. Hope it works out for him at the Gas.

A bit of enigma is our Grant. Did anyone(including himself) ever work out what his best position is?

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

When he was hear we were crying out for an attacking right wing back or even a conventional but very attacking right back. Always felt he could have been good there. We had Chambers there who did ok but he was really a centre half as we all know.

He had an incredible ability to make you forget that he was on the pitch, based on the occasions I watched him play.

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

Never mind forgetting he was on the pitch, I forgot that he was ever at the club.
amazing considering he scored a hattrick on his debut, as not many players do that in their career.

He really wasn't much as a player. Our players now are more talented which shows why we were such a mess considering we were a Champ club then.

Even the debut where he scored a hat-trick he didn't do that much else in the game as far as i recall which i guess in some ways makes the feat even more remarkable. Some people thought he was going to be excellent for us on the back of that but i never really saw anything from this that made me excited.

Looking at his career it looks like he actually overachieved with us. He scored a quarter of his career goals in that 2nd half debut.

My immediate reaction was Mick gave him the heave-ho as soon as he took the managers job.
I was wrong, the deal was done and Grant was gone before Mick arrived.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Always looked like there was a player in there somewhere, just never seemed to come out.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

So MM didn't sign him at all, I didn't realise that, was he a Jewell signing?

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

I think Grant Ward is and was just an average, quite versatile & hard working 3rd tier player. Never really nailed down a regular place anywhere, apart from his loan season at Rotherham where he won plaudits. I think thatg was the basis of Town paying £600k for him & at the time he was seen as a promising 22 nyear old, but he hasn't kicked on.

You're yanking my chain aren't you?
Mick has just taken the job at Blackpool, a day after Grant Ward left for Bristol Rovers.
