Wolves midfielder Dave Edwards delighted injury woes now over

Wolves midfielder Dave Edwards is delighted to be over his injury woes.

Edwards, 25, completed his first 90 minutes in the Premier League against Wigan last week after his back injury in February.

Edwards scored in the Molineux club's 3-1 win to ease the pressure on boss Mick McCarthy.

He will now play his first game for Wales in more than a year at home to Norway tomorrow.

He said: "It's a hereditary problem that has come through the family. My dad had it, my brother had it, and I think I was just a ticking time bomb.

"It was something I knew about, but when I had back pain after a game my dad mentioned about his back and my brother's, so I told the physios about that and they sent me for a scan."
