This will no doubt be controversial. Is it time to offload Woody? He's been a fantastic servant to the club, but is it time to offer him up to the newly promoted sides or the MLS? ?

Yes, it is. He still has a year left on his contract, but rather than sell him, I think we owe it to him to let him move on rather than be a bit-part player this season.

Best 15m we ever spent.

Yea, he's shot it, mate. Good striker, but not class.

Good question, RRH. I think this will be his last season, certainly at this level. He is managing a permanent injury. Top man and top professional that he is, I don't think we will get anywhere near a full season out of him.


I'd keep him this season if only for the example he sets to the rest of the squad and as a fall back impact sub.
(Now I've said that, he'll probably score another 20 goals).

Good old "Plankov".
Made a lot of so called experts on here, who know nothing about football, eat their their words. ????????

This Givario Read looks a young talent. .20 million could be a bargain. Fast, knows how to put a good cross in, takes on players. Hopefully we can get it done.

I think Wood is too slow now, and he's been a great signing, but it would probably be better for him to drop down a league. Maybe he could do a job back in NZ leagues, but his body isn't healing at his age.

Woody is quick enough over 10 yards to get the edge on defenders in the box. A superb football brain gets him an extra split second, too. His stats don't lie. A brilliant and prolific scorer of goals and a top pro.

Be pointless selling him.
Get very little, and he can do a job either starting or off the bench.
Jesus will come of age this season, mark my words.
He had no break from football for nearly two years, due to the Brazilian league ending and signing for us.


Wood got injured, and Kaleumundo was sent out on loan and vastly overused.
We will see a different player, and he wasn't that bad last season.
