That's a shame if true, but he's done nothing to justify starting for us yet and plenty of defenders wouldn't have even have made a senior appearance yet at his age. Disappointed if he's kicked off about a lack of game time at 19. Link to post Share on other sites
Essuuaitch 330 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) Southampton also targetting Tav so may be the news leading to that tweet was confused from dorset/hampshire rumour mills. as for Fry, newcastle may dip thier feet with an offer from reading the local papers here(consett) Link to post Share on other sites

SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 We're a Championship club so it would be unusual if we didn't have some interest in our best players - especially young English ones. Feel like the club would want big money for Tav - especially if the 2024 date from Craig Johns is correct. Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1234 1,048 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I'd be gutted to lose Wood. When he came on the scene a few years back I thought he would be our greatest youth talent of the last decade, looked to have absolutely everything to take him to the very top. He definitely hasn't kicked on like I'd hope but In fairness he's had some very poor loans. Its something I've noticed quite a bit over the last 5/6 years with us. Our loan choices for young players seem very poor. Can't remember any coming back stronger from them barring the obvious Spence situation this season. Didn't Fry have a shocking loan at Rotherham?

But I'd still seen him as the next in line and was expecting him to start slotting in now and again in the near future. Link to post Share on other sites

Disappointed if he's kicked off about a lack of game time at 19. Kind of feels like the early hype has gone to his head. He couldn't even get a game for Hibs, even Warnock called him out on that move if I remember rightly because he clearly wasn't expected to come in and just play. Can't fault the lad for having ambitions of first-team football but I certainly feel like it's questionable where he expects to get it right now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MBG42 312 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Even when playing for the U23's Wood doesn't even stand out. When I have watched him he has been played as RCB and has been overshadowed by Bilongo on the other side playing at LCB. When he first started playing I thought he would be a Teesside version of Rio Ferdinand in the way he played but he looks more like a 37 year old Sol Bamba but just not as good.

From what I've been told he has been told there are no plans for him to get first team football this year and the club want to send him on loan again. Link to post Share on other sites
