Ward turns down Norway move
Bohemians and Republic of Ireland under-21 star Stephen Ward has decided against a proposed move to Norwegian top flight side Fredrikstad. Ward has been linked with several clubs across the water over the past 18 months, spending time on trial at Sunderland while Ipswich Town were also monitoring his progress.
The 21-year-old helped the Irish under-21s to victory over Greece in a Uefa qualifier last week and is again expected to play a central role when Belgium come to Galway next week.

Ah pox, I was hoping he's be out of the cup game! Probably a smart move by him though. If he has patience I'm sure he'll get a better move than Norway.
I reckon Bohs are not too happy that he turned this down as he is quoted as saying that he is out of contract at the end of this season and would prefer to move to England as he will be a free agent!
Anything less than a move to Championship is astep down for eircom league players now. He did the right thing turning down a move to Norway.
I was on about the top players in the eircom league so most teams mentioned above would not have these. For most players moving to Div 2 clubs in England (league 1) would have no real benefit for their career. In fact they would have more chance of being spotted playing in Europe and Eircom league than playing in the English 3rd division.
Still a prck for saying that.
