would anyone really fancy Woods to make the difference for us at Wembley in a playoff final penalty shootout?
This is league one football and players are here partly because they do make mistakes, especially the goalkeepers. Woods has made two howlers in the last 2 games ( dodgy pitch at fault on Saturday?) but is a regular face in a team who are top of the league. He's pulled out some top drawer saves along the way too.Shame on you all for coming on here and slagging off one of our young players, get behind the team! Or next game if your expertise deems Woods' performance to be ok you can have another go at Bennett or Husband?

No, shame on you for not getting behind the lad. Its the same as Bennett, some of the stick he got at Bury away was a f*cking joke. Meant to be one of our young promising players.Will Woods get the same treatment just because some of you dont think he's good enough? What experience of you got as a keeper? or a goalkeeping coach? Or a manager? (Let me guess Filo, youve got your coaching badges...) Thought not.The lad has made some mistakes, which as a keeper, are shown up straight away, as opposed to mistakes from outfield players.
I've just seen their goal. You can't have a keeper making mistakes like that at any level and expect to win the league.

Last time I checked he did that against Southampton and there still going for the league and also won it last year... So your comment is kind of invalided there!

No way will City win the league this year, partly down to Hart's mistakes.
Hart was rock solid last year and they won the league. He's been w**k this season and they are a million points behind.

I just wonder how many Gary Woods fans would have come on here if Bennetts goal hadn't got him out of jail
How can he get any confidence when people slate him all the time.
To be fair to him he has looked more confident this season than last but still doesn't look like he completely believes in himself to me. I think a lot of the best keepers strut around and portray even more calmness, assurance and confidence than they actually have. You need to be a big strong character to be a keeper, the mental side is more important than the technical side in my opinion.
What I would do as manager (funds permitting):1: Go to Gary Woods, offer him a new 2 year contract, say he is our future, but.......2: Short term with a dogfight ahead, and with it being a big ask of youth teamer Jonathan Maxted to cover, take an experienced keeper on loan for the rest of the season and let him and Gary compete for the jersey But then I am just a supporter who is not investing significant funds into the club
