Ward admitted he could not carry on any longer.[LNB]"Some games are harder than others and at that stage, the gaffer was right to take me off," he said.[LNB]"I had probably pushed my knee as far as I could.[LNB]"I probably have to get something done in the summer as it needs to be right next season.[LNB]"I had a big setback with the injury and I've played a lot more games than I would've been expected to because of my knee," he said.[LNB]"I'll get myself right now and come back fully fit for next season.[LNB]"Touch wood there will then be any further problems."
