Stephen Ward - **UPDATE@14:00: signs on season-long loan**

We loaned somebody from the tier below us?

That's just odd, good player though, been in the Rep. Ireland squad for 3 or 4 years now.

It's a little like the QPR situation.

They have loaned up the likes of Taraabt, Remy and Granero.

This is a brilliant piece of business by the club in my view. We were NEVER going to match the ability of Bridge in recruiting a left back. He was just a one off freak set of circumstances which worked out brilliantly. That was not a normal signing.

Ward, in his own right, is a good signing.

He used to win me TONS of points on fantasy league with his knack of scoring.

Not really. Wolves need to get rid of their highest earners, a loan move lightens the pay roll somewhat.

He was the left back for a side relegated to a league below us does this indicate we are building a side for Div.1.?

Yes it does. We really want to go down, ideally to the fourth division, but one season at a time. I understand that Ulloa and Bridcutt have also been granted free transfers (Palace being their preferred destination) to speed up the process. OG isn't a real coach either, he's a taxi driver from Romford.

All true.

Wolves fans at work tell me "he's had plenty of practice". More an attacking full back than a defender.

Good to hear, this is what we have been missing in the last few games imo. Push the oppositions midfield back.

Bore off.

Ummm his loan ends after our relegation to league one, so he won't even be here.

Great question though.
