Ward yearns for Stockport clarification

16 February 2011 14:30
Caretaker manager Peter Ward has called on the Stockport hierarchy to clear up the uncertainty over the future direction of the club. Ward has been placed in temporary charge at Edgeley Park but recent reports have linked the Hatters with a move for Port Vale assistant Geoff Horsfield. He told the Stockport Express: "I've asked the question at the club and no one seems to know where the story [about Horsfield] came from. "I'm just concentrating on doing my job until someone knocks on the door and tells me to clear my desk. "It's disappointing because it distracts from the good result we had against Bury on Saturday. We're just preparing for Macclesfield and working towards getting another three points. "I'm caretaker manager but there's no clarity beyond that. No one has told me how long I'm going to be caretaker manager. "I think the club is lacking a bit of leadership at the moment. We've got an acting manager and an acting chairman. I think the club needs someone to take the bull by the horns. It would be a benefit to everybody and give the club some direction."
