Lack of Action Man Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 On 2/18/2018 at 22:32, Redtucks said: Had keyhole surgery on a hernia injury. Should be back in training within a week or so. (according to Rhys Carr at Senior Reds meeting) Ah fair enough. As I said, I think we need his ability to get in the face of defenders late in games. Bobby Reid does a fantastic job at hassling and chasing every lost cause. Diedhou clearly flags towards the end of games. If we bring on Taylor we can hopefully press from the front and try to stop teams rising in ascendancy in the latter stages of matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ska Junkie Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 A tad concerning that Diony didn't come on instead of Woodrow, he's certainly more mobile and won't learn the English game sat on his arse! It's not like he isn't a strong bloke either so he could have held the ball up. I'm baffled TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Odd really, he hasn't played for weeks, then does not impress in a 10 minute cameo in a team devoid of momentum. He's certainly not been a great signing, but at the time, we needed another striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Woodrow have not been good the few games he has been involved in, one goal against Derby. We had 3-0 Sunderland and 2-0 Leeds. Why do we draw in those games? At 2-0 Leeds I was truly thinking we gonna win. The better team we were in the first half. Maybe its better there is 0-0 and we score in the 90 min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he was being given a little extra rest before the Fulham game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance he was still unwell this weekend - if he was struggling they would have had him on a drip to get him back to feeling better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the two Woodrow would have known the trigger points we use for our press better than Diony, courtesy of the extra 6 months or so doing it in training.

It’s a bit of a concern that we have Diony but Woodrow is preferred over him... we wasted the January window if Diony doesn’t step up. We needed a striker and RB that we’re ready to step in. We didn’t sign a RB and the striker we’ve signed looks as though he won’t ever start a bloody game... Work in the morning but im getting 30 cans of thatchers in and drowning my sorrows. This is exactly why football should be on a Saturday, you get a day to recover. Yes was only thinking we could have signed grigg or Danny Graham Nathan Byrne right back would have made more impact and no im not a wigan fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So football being a 'confidence game' must be full of 'snowflakes' then! If you hear people criticising your effort, you fight back, if the criticism continues you try even harder, when things don't go well you're frustrated by your own efforts, a kind word can give you a badly needed boost, but when it feels like everyone is on your back and calling you a useless shit, confidence goes, and anyone would be less than human not to be affected by that kind of ''support' ..nothing snow flake about it.. just human nature - who wouldn't be negatively affected by that? One things for sure, when performances and then fans knock a players confidence, it certainly doesn't make a managers/coaches job any easier trying to get the best out of that player the next time he pulls on the shirt.

Carey 6 Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Noticed him once after he came on, and that was when Phillips missed a free header from 6 yards out after Woodrow lost him. I’ve never really known what sort of player Woodrow is or what he brings to the side. He reminds me a lot of David Clarkson, he doesn’t seem too strong, doesn’t win much in the air & he’s certainly not quick. Don’t think he’s up to the level.

ashton_fan Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Woodrow's never been given a run of games so difficult to judge but he's scored a couple of goals in the short time he's had and is an England Under-21 so I don't think we've seen the best of him. Did well at Burton for the end chunk of last season scoring five. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times do you want to suffer watching woodrow to form an opinion even Fulham fans were laughing an glad that we took him off thier hands we have spent millions on players out on loan and on the Bench we are Bristol city not Wolves or villa with parachute payments and lets dont even go there with the wage bill when we sign players they need to be quality not quantity and bench warmers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
