Ryan Woods 12:23 - Jul 31 with 164995 views | Magic_Michu | Brentford’s local newspaper saying we’re in talks with the club over Ryan Woods. He’d be a superb signing for centre mid in my opinion. Can you imagine him and Clucas in the centre of midfield tho!? Ginger central! 😂 Nicknamed ‘the Ginger Pirlo’ ... ‘Possessing an extensive passing range, gifting him his Pirlo nickname, Woods is constantly looking to dictate the game’s tempo.’ ‘But the 24-year-old is more than just a cultured footballer. He has a steeliness that sees him dominate the middle of the park and endears him to fans. Vocal throughout a game, Woods carries leadership qualities out on the pitch and possesses a clear vision of what he expects from his team-mates, making him the archetypal ‘captain without the armband’. With the ability to both drive forward with the ball and battle for possession, it’s this dynamism that makes him the lynchpin of Smith’s side. Woods’ all-round game also lends itself to versatility, too, having played in both full-back positions, as well as out wide on occasion.’ [Post edited 31 Jul 2018 12:27]

Ryan Woods on 17:59 - Aug 6 with 5338 views | bermudajack | Brentford have received a £7M bid from us today according to Sky Bet Championship: News Also Wood has told them he wants to join us, also 1 year loan deal for Declan John on the tabled to Rangers | |

Ryan Woods on 18:08 - Aug 6 with 5219 views | Brynmill_Jack | Both very sensible deals and Woods will make a huge impact I'm sure. Perhaps his arrival may speed up Clucas' departure | |

Ryan Woods on 18:26 - Aug 6 with 5028 views | raynor94 | BBC reporting, there's interest from other Premier teams, perhaps that's the reason he turned Burnley down | |
| |
Ryan Woods on 18:30 - Aug 6 with 4997 views | bringbacklaudrup | He's probably waiting to see if any better offers come before Thursday, so I expect him to be holding up the Swansea shirt on Friday. | |
| |
Ryan Woods on 18:31 - Aug 6 with 4978 views | jack247 | He’s leaving. They’ve wrapped him in cotton wool anticipating a move. If we’re the only serious bidder, then he’s coming here. The Clucas deal will happen, whether it’s Burnley or somewhere else. It looks like he wants out and Potter is happy with that. If he and/or Burnley/whoever need to compromise on wages, I’m sure they will. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 18:35 - Aug 6 with 4936 views | jasper_T | They've wrapped him in cotton wool while his wife was due to give birth, after they lost a child last year (part of why he'd prefer to go to a Midlands club, that's where their families are). | | | |
Ryan Woods on 18:47 - Aug 6 with 4805 views | Brynmill_Jack | I don't care who takes him. Perhaps Cardiff would suit him if he likes running about a lot? The Liverpool player isn't going there so next best thing for them I reckon. | |

Ryan Woods on 18:49 - Aug 6 with 4765 views | jasper_T | I'm not saying he isn't moving, just that there's a lot going on there so reading it as a straightforward "dotting the i's" situation might lead to disappointment. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 18:50 - Aug 6 with 4747 views | jack247 | I said he’s coming here if we’re the only serious bidder. I’m not disputing we could get gazumped or a midlands club may come in for him. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 18:50 - Aug 6 with 4745 views | 34dfgdf54 | So Woods wants a midlands club? I thought I seen earlier he’s told Brentford he wants to join us. Have I missed something? | | | |
Ryan Woods on 18:55 - Aug 6 with 4693 views | omarjack | If we want to sign a ginger why not go for Jack Colback? All gingers play the same anyway. | |
| |
Ryan Woods on 18:58 - Aug 6 with 4660 views | jack247 | I think that was his original preference, but there aren’t any midlands clubs in the running at the moment | | | |
Ryan Woods on 19:01 - Aug 6 with 4611 views | jasper_T | He moved back home with his wife last year and has been commuting from London since. Ideally they'd stay close to family. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 19:02 - Aug 6 with 4593 views | Brynmill_Jack | If he watched our game I'm sure any doubts he may have had would have disappeared. WBA in a mess and Villa cut back by FFP . Birmingham skint too. | |

| |
Ryan Woods on 23:20 - Aug 6 with 4083 views | awayjack | If Villa sell Grealish for rumoured £30m+ suspect they'll re- invest large chunk within FFP this year. Last season may be different story but I guess they had Parachute to offset big wage bill for FFP calculations. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 23:29 - Aug 6 with 4027 views | Brynmill_Jack | You're right about Grealish giving them the finances to buy Woods from under our noses. I just hope and pray we get him in first | |

Ryan Woods on 15:50 - Aug 7 with 3548 views | DafyddHuw | Just think of the worst possible footballer you can. Colback is worse. Ever seen him play for Newcastle? And I use the word "play" very, very loosely. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 15:52 - Aug 7 with 3517 views | switchingcode | Very near fee agreed just sorting out the add ons and he’ll be on his way to ???? | | | |
Ryan Woods on 16:23 - Aug 7 with 3380 views | golly47 | Seen a guy dressed in athleisure clothing signing some paperwork with a big burly guy and a lady in the sinclair room. Might have been woods but he had a cap on so couldn't really see. Overheard the big guy saying about training sessions, so its either a new senior player or a youngster. | |

Ryan Woods on 17:29 - Aug 7 with 3047 views | 34dfgdf54 | Fulton looks like he’s off so we’ve definitely got someone coming in. | | | |
Ryan Woods on 17:33 - Aug 7 with 3003 views | oh_tommy_tommy | Where’s Fulton of to then ? | |

Ryan Woods on 17:34 - Aug 7 with 2993 views | jasper_T | Reading trying to agree a fee according to Alan Nixon. | | | |
