Phew!
Jed Ward returning to Bristol Rovers early is not something Gas’ boss Steve Evans is looking at.
The Bristol Rovers manager is going through something of a goalkeeper reshuffle at the Mem and, speaking to Bristol Live has said that a potential recall of Jed Ward is not an option he has looked at.
The former Rotherham boss has said that Ward is currently playing with a hand injury and that he’ll assess Ward’s future in the summer;
“I’ve not spoken to Jed, but he’s got a little injured hand.
He’s got a hand injury at the minute. So he’s actually been playing through that.
I’m not going to be disrespectful to the National League because I’ve been in it, and it’s so tough when you’re in it, but there’s a difference playing at Yeovil in the National League to playing with Bristol Rovers in the Football League.
So I’ve not looked at that option. That would be one for the summer when Jed comes back in. I’ve seen him as a young player in League One, of course, when you get into the team, so I know what he’s capable of.”
Suits us just fine, Steve, we’ll happily look after him for you.
Ahahaha having watched Rovers 2 weeks ago there isn’t a lot of difference at all! Shock news Evans talking waffle!
Went to a game recently too for something different and they are arguably worse than us
Absolutely Mr Evans, whatever you say. Jed’s hand won’t get any better over the summer either, honest. Best not leave it to chance…a season longer with us should do it…(cough-cough free agent!)
