QuoteThey have a major whole at left-back, and have had for years. I can't see him being the answer to their problems, not at left-back, anyway. I'd like to see him get a run of games as a striker.
Rumors on the Bohs mb that he is set for a €1m move to Sunderland with Bohs to scoop €100k from the move. I say it's all a load of b*llix but thought I'd throw it in here anyway...

Useless full back Stephen Ward puts Wolves 1-0 up at home to Barnsley.
Ok all his ailes are now forgotten.

I think he may have no choice in the matter! Ward has his faults I mean he has at times played as a Striker and winger and this is reflected in his ability to get forward and score goals. However what other suitable LBs do we have? Harte is 34 and Wilson needs to take his chance in a friendly before he can replace ward? Cunningham is still with the U21s.
34 or not Hartes playing at the higher level, playing better and even scores more.
Very good goal there by Ward.
I'd say Wilson will be called up to the next squad, though Cunningham must be close to a call up and seeing as the u21's are on the way out, who knows what may transpire.
'Nottingham Forest have had a £1m bid accepted for Wolves’ Stephen Ward. However, the two clubs are attempting to reconcile money the player is owed on the remainder of his contract. This one looks in the balance, although with determination to do it on both sides, it is more likely than not.

Interesting - he'll be trading a mid-range Championship team with a trigger-happy approach to managers with another. Bohs will surely be due a bit of a pay-out if it goes through.
Looks like he is turning his nose up a bit with reporters here about the prospect of leaving.
No Somos muchos pero estamos locos.
pretty certain those types of clauses are time-limited. For example, i dont think we received anything for his international caps... Not sure that we would be entitled to anything further...
The caps thing would have to be in the transfer contract, Wolves have no obligation on that matter unless the contract says they do.
If Wolves did sell him for £1m, they are obliged to pay a % of the transfer fees to the clubs that Ward was with (previous to Wolves) up to the age of 23. It's called solidarity contribution. Or in Bohs case, it would be a solitary fix.
sorry - for clarification - Bohs had negotiated a clause about international caps. I believe that the time limit associated with the clause expired and we ended up without a payment. There was talk about a sum from Wolves but not sure that it happened...
I think you are wrong about solidarity payments. I thought solidarity payments were only applicable in a transfer between different footballing jurisdictions? For example, Kevin Doyle had a transfer clause built into his move from Cork to Reading which would have covered the transfer between Reading and Wolves had Cork not cashed it in. If they were going to receive a solidarity payment from the transfer why would they have bothered? Bohs received a solidarity payment from Coventry for Gary Deegan but didnt receive anything for his transfer to Hibernian.
They're only time-limited if they're specifically made that way, and I don't see why Bohs would agree to that. I assumed they'd have a sell-on clause.
Doyle was transferred before this solidarity thing came into force, probably explains why Cork would not have known. Even if they had known they would have conspired to make a loss anyway
Having a quick read of this page FAI page it looks to me that,
"Training compensation is paid to all clubs who've trained the player from age 12 to 21"
It applies only to cross juridstiction transfers and applies all down the line to all the clubs the player was registered to in Ireland
but "In the event of any subsequent transfer, compensation is only paid to the previous club."
I assume that means the last club the player was with before leaving Ireland.
It could mean the previous club in England, but that doesn't fit.
If it means the last club in Ireland, then that club is entitled to the solidarity payment for "any subsequent transfer".
All imho.
edit
there is also a calculation there at the bottom of the page
Solidarity Contribution - Payment breakdown
for age when at the Irish club and that calculation covers from age 12 to age 23.
