The decisions we have made, the players we have released have not affected our top flight status, he was not performing at this level with us, could he would he, unless he actually performs in this division, then our decision was right.
Scoring for fun in the championship is not scoring against top class international defenders in the premier league.
4Eva, I think you're right. I thought Woods always looked decent for us but he was not someone who, at the time, you would have considered as our starting 9. Whether he would have developed into that position, who knows but I suspect he wanted regular football and we couldn't give him that. I think he's a good player but, as you say, there have been many prolific strikers in the Championship who couldn't perform at the same level in the PL
