Description
Mark William Ward is a former footballer from Liverpool. He started his career as a youth player with Everton F.C. and then spent two seasons playing for Oldham Athletic.
In 1985 he signed for West Ham United and was ever-present on the right wing in his first season, as they finished third in Division 1. However, in subsequent seasons, star strikers Frank McAvennie and Tony Cottee left and West Ham were relegated at the end of 1988?89.
In December 1989 Ward signed for newly promoted Manchester City, who had just appointed Howard Kendall as manager after falling into the relegation zone. Ian Bishop and Trevor Morley signed for West Ham in exchange. Bizarrely, Ward's first six games for City included four against Millwall. City beat them in the league on 30 December 1989 but drew twice with them in the FA Cup before losing the second replay on 15 January 1990. City rose to finish 14th, with Ward scoring his first three goals for City in consecutive games in April.
Playing mainly on the left wing, Ward only missed two games in 1990?91, scoring 13 league and cup goals as City finished fifth.
