Richard Wood

[steve@dcfd]

The way he was assisted off the pitch and blood and cut let’s hope he’s ok not for the next match but for his well being.

[Monkcaster_Rover]

The man’s hard as nails. Be out for the weekend but back after then.

Can’t be nice for his missus and kids to see him like that though.

[MachoMadness]

He'll be out for the next match at least with the concussion protocol, I imagine. If he's got a concussion, then who knows. Not sure on his concussion history, but they can be really nasty especially if you have a history of them. Fingers crossed for him.

[karldew]

Any update if there’s concussion or just a cut?

Loved the fact he still walked across the pitch rather than behind the goal line to waste a bit more time.

[danumdon]

Proper player is Wood, we were just saying there's no way he's coming off on that stretcher!

Hope everything is not as bad as it seemed, he's been magnificent for the team since his return from his last injury, has made the team mentally and physically stronger.

Just posted on another thread about this.
Is it ten days under the concussion protocol?
If so he would miss the next two games.

[Thorney]

Woody being woody will claim nothing to see here and he just got a finger in the eye and will be there at morcambe.

[Dabbermoo]

He was subbed under the concussion rule so I believe its a minimum of 4 days of no taining followed by 3 days of none contact training, I may be wrong but as a concussion sub RW should be out for next 2 games.

[mushRTID]

McCann has said he’s never seen a cut like it, on his forehead.

Didn’t mention if it’s concussion or not.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Even if it's not concussion, as hard as he is, he can't play after a head injury like that. If it was on the top of his head then maybe but it looks like it was near his temple.

[StocksArmy]

Heres to hoping we see him bandaged up on Saturday but, it didn't look or sound great. Just our luck.

[Colin C No.3]

From the West Stand you could hear their ‘supporters’ chanting “Let him die, let him die….” when the stretcher was brought on.

As my brother said, ‘all money, no class’.

Hope he makes a speedy & full recovery.

You’re always going to get a few morons. We have got our fair share haven’t we.

Let’s hope RW will be ok. It looked very nasty. What happened as I couldn’t see fro the south end of the West stand. Was it a clash of heads or something more sinister?

He was subbed because he had a big cut on his head it looked like concussion as he was groggy so I expect he will miss two games at least. We all hope it’s not worst than that for him personally football comes second

It was more than just a few morons Campsall.
Disgusting chanting from the Wrexham fans, they plumbed the depths of behaviour there.

[Pliskin]

It took a while for us to really see what Woody is capable of.

He's looked like a proper defender since he's come back into the side after injury. Hope he's not out for too long.

[Chris Black come back]

He was visibly in a lot of pain walking off. Looked a deep cut and probably more than a few stitches coming for him you would imagine.

Learning this puts them on my hated clubs list. Second only to Gillingham.

[Padge_DRFC]

Alongside Maxwell im happiest most with his contract extension. Been superb since coming back from injury.

What a delivery from Maxwell for the goal and you'll not see many headers better than that from Bailey. Sterry put some crosses of real quality in the box also.

[donnievic]

Definitely brought of due to concussion protocol sa he was the 4th seperate substitution interchange to be used

I have heard the ‘let him die’ song a lot from the Rovers fans over the years so we are not really in a position to take the high ground

I don't ever recall hearing Rovers fans, or any other fans, singing "Let him die" when a player is clearly in serious trouble with a head injury and the stretcher has been brought on.

Then again, I've only been going to games for 55 years.....

[Silkscarf]

In the 70s people would chant ‘Bring on the Bostik’ when an opposition player went down with a possible leg break.

[colincramb]

I don’t know if we will see him again this season to be fair. Hopefully we will but it looked serious.

Owen Bailey must have been incensed by the chanting because my brother noticed he made a point of standing at the back of the Rovers goal ‘stock still’ & glaring at the Wrexham ‘supporters’.

Must have been distressing for Woods’ boys to see their dad laid down & kicking his legs into the pitch with pain as the stretcher was brought on

[turnbull for england]

Hindsight being crystal clear and all that, you could imagine Wrexham fans assuming we were time wasting at that point of the game. Was only few days back  we were praising keeper for going down at Crawley with an ' injury '. We know Woody is made of sterner stuff than to stay down like that unless as bad as it looked but they don't

[adamtherover]

it took big tom 3 years to come back after being "balcombed!!" :-(

So once it became totally bleedin' obvious that Woody's injury was serious and he was having to go off holding a bandage to his head, wouldn't you expect at least SOME of the away fans to show respect with a little applause?
I scrutinised the Wrexham fans at that time and there was nothing of the sort.

Indeed I would,  normal practice when some one goes off like that
