Woody interview

I was excited listening to his press inteview when he was given the managers job, talking about fast, exciting football, yes talk is cheap, but for a few months it was refreshing to read that he was hoping to stamp his brand throughout the club & after Stracham & Pulis it was nice to read the club were changing direction

The Luton game started off as he said it would, dont think anyone on here was complaining, probably the opposite, the home game v Brentford started off similar, 2 goals disallowed with us looking lively & on the front foot, second half we lost our way & ended up losing 1-0, we never really came back after that

He brought in some good players who have served us well

I think him brining in Keane was a poor recruitment, IMHO he needed someone with more experience, not another novice who will not go onto become a manager, but thats just my opinion

Good luck to Woody, I really hope he gets a job back in management sometime

It was frustrating, because none of us expected promotion but we all bought into this idea of us playing high-pressing attacking football, and yes we may not gain promotion but at least it's going to be exciting to watch and we may have something to build on.

The Luton game seemed to be a taster of what was to come and I liked it, but after the Brentford game he seemed to completely give up on his original plan.
 
Totally baffling appointment in the first place, and then hung out to dry by Gibson who wanted a new style of play, a squad rebuild and all done on zero money.

He was another victim of Gibson’s supposed gentlemanly policy of not taking a manager from another club. That summer the only other candidate was Jokanovic who wanted loads of cash to spend.

The fact we went from a rookie in woody to Warnock who had by that point retired, to get us out of the $hit we were in tells you the level of the job needed all along

Gibson has made some brilliant appointments and some truly terrible ones, this was probably the second worst after Strachan

If you're going down the road of complaining others didn't treat you with respect then you've got to treat others with respect yourself or you're a hypocrite. I seem to remember Woodgate being rather unpleasant to a female journalist - was he considering her mental health then?
