Ward

[bigal]

Ward with a finish like that have we found a target man at last.Get shackell and Marti's back and stick the guy up front
not Lewis no offense meant

[5minstogo]

He is a very good player.  Can play centre back, midfield and looks like he could play up front if needed!

SOD has tracked him for a while, out of contract in the summer. A proper Championship player.  If we have no chance of signing Shack then I would certainly like the look of Martis and Ward at the back.

The lad has done more than enough to earn himself a song. How about this, to the tune of More More More by Andrea True Connection

Ward Ward Ward

I like that, something different!

[Superspy]

ironically, my missus said she felt sorry for him last night as apparently he looked like he was waiting to hear his name when we were singing for sharp and coppinger at the end. we'll have to give him a song next time

[Bristol Red Rover]

How about:
Bicycle, bicycle, bicycle
Elliot Ward rides a bicycle, bicycle, bicycle
Elliot Ward rides a bicycle
Elliot Ward rides a bike
Elliot Ward rides a bicycle
He rides it where he likes

[WSBBA_Joe]

One word... 'WOW'

He scores more than Guy... thats a little joke before people get upset bout it.

[Bristol Red Rover]

and while I'm at it, one for Louis... come on encourage the guy!

Guy
Is everything
Is everything
Is everything!

Typical Centre half shot, hit and hope  

[ferribyrover]

Ward: Played well, scored a wonder goal, and didn't get injured as far as we know. The latter is unusual for our CBs. All positives.
On a great night there was just one small negative for me, (nothing to do with Ward, and not aimed at the posters above): When Lewis came on, for maybe 5 mins, with the game won, some idiot behind me launched into pathetic abuse and ridicule of him. No one in red and white hoops deserves that, especially when there was so much to celebrate. Anyway, I'm still on a high about that performance and result.

[DRFCGlover]

If were looking for a song for him how about this

not to sure about the tune, but leeds sing it about dominic matteo

Oh Elliott Ward
Scored a f**king great goal
On his league debuuuutt
On his league debuuuuuttt

[Snods Shinpad 2]

Or we can rip off L**ds Beckford chant:

Oh Elliott Ward
Scored a fcuking great goal
At the Wendy sh*thole
At the Wendy sh*thole

[northern soul]

To brown girl in the ring.

We've got Elliott in the hoops la la la la la
Elliott in the hoops la la la la la
Elliott in the hopps la la la la la
He scored with an overhead kick.


*coat is already on*

It's been a great days, working with a number of Wednesday fans!

This thread appears to have meandered towards a particular bugbear of mine... Namely the lack of originality in the chants and songs that the Rovers crowd generate. I know it's a trivial matter, but we seem to have lost a lot of the wit often at the heart of chants originating from the Pop Side dozen. It really irks me when song suggestions on here begin with \"We could sing this like Club X do\".

Come on folks. There's a world of music out there. Try something different

[Woodhead Passer]

To the tune Just Can't Get Enough

When Wardy's in the air, he always wins the ball
I Just Can't Get Enough, I Just Can't Get Enough
When Wardy's in the box, he scores bicycle kicks
I Just Can't Get Enough, I Just Can't Get Enough
When Wardy makes a tackle, he always wins the ball
I Just Can't Get Enough, I Just Can't Get Enough

thoughts?

Despite having just posted a rip off chant, I agree 100%. I'll try not to be so lazy in future.

I blame it on the blanket tv coverage. Another bugbear is chants that don't rhyme properly.

It's shocking we don't have a decent JR or SOD chant either.

[grayx]

I thought Ward was excellent last night and his goal looks better everytime I see it. Sign him up. In the interview afterwards he sounded like he'd be happy to stay here long term.

[irishcontingent]

His wages again would be stumbling block. Thats what stopped a TW move to Oakwell.

[Ryan B]

How about...

(to the same tune as \"going up..\")

Pele Ward,
pele ward,
pele ward.
Pele Ward,
pele ward,
pele waaaard.
Pele Ward,
pele ward,
pele ward.
Pele Ward
Pe-le Ward!

[Ryan B]

to the tune of katy perry - I kissed a girl...

\"Ward scored a goal and I liked it,
 It was an over-head kick\"

[Mike_F]

I like that RB. Nice and simple.

I'll still stick my own suggestion up though:

Agadoo:

Elliott Ward, Ward, Ward,
Came to Rovers and he scored,
With his feet above his head,
Made the Hillsborough Kop go dead.

[VivaRovers]

Good to see some creativity here. I also like RB's Katy Perry suggestion.

Good shout as well Mike, though if you lose one of the 'Ward's in the opening line and it scans much better.

You could add a second bit as well...

Swung his left, and his right,
Jumped up and scored a great volley
He's our new centre back,
Eliott Ward from Coventry

[RobTheRover]

Like that!

Second bit....

to the tune of katy perry - I kissed a girl...

\"Ward scored a goal and I liked it,
It was an over-head kick,
Ward Scored a goal and I liked it,
in a ground that smelt of pig sh!t!\"

You're right there mate. I was pronouncing it Ell-Yot to get it into two syllables. Your version is truer to the original.

How about this though:

Swung his left and his right,
He was upside down in flight,
Smashed the ball in the goal,
Elliot Ward is our hero.

[DMnumber4]

Oh Elliot Ward,
What a debut goal he scored,
He put Wednesday to the sword,
The away end stood and roared!

[Shawndrfc]

got to admit, if his contract does indeed expire in the summer SoD, would be a fool not to bring him to the rovers.
