Ward looking to drag in rivals

by Setanta Staff , 08 February 2012 Ward looking to drag in rivals

Wolves star Stephen Ward is looking for the side to pick up the points against West Brom and drag them into the relegation scrap.


Spirits have been raised at Molineux following the 2-1 win at QPR last Saturday and Ward is now looking for the side to build on their victory when they take on Black Country rivals West Brom this weekend.

Ward believes they can drag the Baggies back into the relegation scrap with a win.

"I think a few people would have been thinking it was three from four to go down if we had lost on Saturday," he told the Express and Star.

"QPR would have been six points ahead of us if they'd won and that would have been quite a gap.

"We have them at our side now, though, after beating them and, if we can do the same to Albion, we will be only two points behind them.

"Saturday was such a vital win and the derby is in the same category - the more teams we can drag into the battle the better. I love this fixture - the supporters make it very special - and you're always aware of the extra spice in the build-up.

"After Saturday's result, it's been straight back down to business for us because this is another very important match."
