Ward talks about Guinan

More has emerged from Cheltenham about the move of Steve Guinan back to Hereford United.

"We've made Steve available because we are looking to change things and move on a little but and he understands that," said manager John Ward.

"His chances will become more limited but at 31 years old he wants to play.

"I've got every respect for Steve. He's a good professional sportsman and he is very supportive of everything whether he is in the team or not. If we can help him get a bit more regular football then we'll do that.

"Steve has been very influential in the way that we have played even though he will probably admit that he's not scored as many goals as he would have liked. I'm sure if you ask Kayode, Steven Gillespie and Damian Spencer they will say they enjoyed playing with Steve because he's an unselfish player and also does a lot of unseen amounts of defending when we don't have the ball. I always look at strikers and ask what they're doing when they don't score and Steve does an awful lot."
