Paul Wood hasn't been good all season. I think Cooper has been average as well. This isn't a knee erk reaction to the result but an assesment of the whole season.
Deary me, has it come to this. Two years ago, Wood was being spoke about (quite correctly) as a fantastic player.
DO WE REALLY HAVE TO HAVE A PLAYER WHO HAS TO TAKE THE BLAME EVERY WEEK. WE WIN AS A TEAM, WE LOSE AS TEAM.
No, Wood didn't stand out a mile as our worst player. Look at the game again, and you'll find plenty of players who made just as many mistakes, if not more, than Wood, but then again, maybe you were looking for it (an excuse to blame Wood).
By the way, I'm only expressing MY opinion.
AND, if you think Paul Wood is an average player, go and watch tennis. FFS!
Always thought he's an average player + always will so that will never change no matter what.Also i watched the whole match + i stand by what i said in my previous post.Yes many players made mistakes but when he's got the ball your heart is in your mouth + that's not because of watching him in 1 match either.If i'm not mistaken he even admitted a couple of weeks ago in the Guardian he needs to keep hold of the ball more instead of trying to offload everytime.So much for taking his own advice + fwiw i can't stand tennis but i'll bear that in mind.My own opinion + mine only.
Wood is one of my favourite players and has been one of our most consistently good for many years.
This season, and last night in particular, he has been poor.
FFS let's give him a chance to regain that form, there is no way he's shot. He just needs to engage his brain at times, I think he's being asked to play too much of an offloading game and that's clouding his judgement.
At the end of the day mate, we've stuck with the minger from school and she's turned out to be a stunner, so don't try and nick her off us, y'know, we've waited a long time for this, took the laughs along the way etc. You, you took the one who had big knockers by the 3rd year and you've had your fun but now sadly it's all looking a bit rough around the edges now, tough.
