This guy has made like 200 appearances for Peterborough, so you’d expect their fans to have seen what he’s capable of. I don’t necessarily think he will fail, no one knows that but it’s not a signing I would have made. That’s my opinion. I feel like there should be players out there with a higher ceiling as you say, who would be willing to join us. On the flip side, Peterborough wouldn't have played him 200 times if he was rubbish.

You can see it either way based on the knowledge we have. My opinion is as valid as yours based on no evidence. He was offered a 3 year contract. It was on their website. He was on the retained list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Not really seeing why folk are crabbing this one. The lad's a very solid option at this level, he's coming on a free, he's quick, can cover both the RB / RWB roles and he's chosen Derby over Posh which has wound up some of their fans no end. His stats look pretty damn good in context, least to my eye. What's not to like? Ram-Alf, Blondest Goat, angieram and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I don’t know enough about him but we are a third division club and he has had success at this level ! interesting that he scored so many goals and has a great assist record from that position ! we need cover at RWB or RB ! he is a free transfer ! He isn’t someone else’s youngster wanting a guaranteed game every week no one should be complaining Ram-Alf, Comrade 86 and FlyBritishMidland 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram1988 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Our transfer window has got off to a great start with Joe Ward. Had a good season with the Posh in area we badly needed bolstering. At an ideal age too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being pedantic, just for the sheer hell of it and not making a wider point, Ward didn't get a single assist for Peterborough from RB last season. They all came at RWB/RW.

Inverurie Ram Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 It’s only a matter of time before the Derby youth are writing their classic songs about his massive bits…….. so alternatively……. He’s been up, with the Posh He’s not here, for the dosh He came to Derby, likes a Nurse, and a bed He’s fast at right back, will leave you dead Not a doctor, or time lord, he’s Joe Ward Ram-Alf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was never going to oust Bruno from the right-back slot so was released. Bruno was a Legend and ti this day still remains one of my favoutite championship full backs he even filled in a centre back against us at pp and exemplary in an away shut out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was going to say this. whoscored have him as being alright too. I think wingback will be a good position for him. Seems he had a bad game against us when they were playing 4 at the back?

Guest Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 1 hour ago, Millenniumram said: You made the classic line of giving the player a chance, implying that someone who’s not enamoured by the signing won’t give him a chance. That’s not true. Ah, so you mean a chance to prove you wrong about your knee-jerk reaction to any signing made by Warne because you identify as being anti-Warne and having your "glass half empty" on that basis alone. Sorry, I now understand what you mean. (We're using the same language but with different meanings). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
