Callum Woods signs till end of season

Welcome.

Need experience the position we are in and has to fight for a longer contract which is good

Need him in Saturday against land of the giants Burton

 

Woods has been at Deepdale since 2014. But injuries have restricted him to just an hour’s action so far this season.

This has to be a worry surely he can't be match fit, can he do 90 minutes ?.

 

Slipped in there before @Fordy117 .
Agree though, is he another Scannell?

 

He's very welcome, not sure how he specifically suits Burton though? He's 5'11 isn't he?

 

We seem to be signing players with a high profile injury history and when they get injured, they recover and get injured again!

Hope this lads experience will help us survive.His championship nous should compensate somewhat for his age and lack of pace?

 

Just hope he can survive one of Hoppo's training sessions!

 

Presuming Woods will fit in at left back, I would be far more confident going into the Burton game with a back four of Caddis - McGowan / O'Connor - NKP - Woods. One of McGowan or O'Connor has to miss out because they can't play left sided centre half. NKP was finding some form before Barnsley so I'd stick with him with a seemingly stronger left back outside him.

Another deal till the end of the season so he's got a point to prove.

 

Was thinking more physical and better in the air than Chicksen?

 

Stephen Hawking was more physical and better in the air than Chicksen

 

Agreed. NKP played well when he was moved to his proper position at left CB after O'Connor went off on Saturday.

 

i presume he must have passed a medical?

 

Edins medical.
Right lad, touch your toes and cough.

 

Really, Toes !!
Well, it's safe to say I'd fail the medical.

 

Puts our january signings so far into perspective.
If we are asking can he do 90 minutes then that has to be the wrong question.
Club is not bringing in the quality players needed to survive.
Losing out again and relying on the last few desperate hours of jan 31st.

 

Fair comment we've hardly raised our profile with January's signings so far, but still 7 days to go.

 

It is not what Hopkin was saying months ago- we were ready to go on jan1st and get players in;

Payne/O'Brien were backed and Ball on a permanent was good business BUT if the pot is now empty then you all know how it will end.
P. O'Connor/Richardson and Woods are not the quality required.

 

Don't you mean Anderson?

 

If we were asked - would you swop Woods coming in for Isherwood (who appears to be on his way to Sweden) most of us would say yes - this makes it a step in the right direction albeit a relatively small one
