Saints bid £10m for Wood

[JustJack]

Surely there's been a mistake and Southampton emailed 'Would Piroe be available?'

I like NW but faredywell

 

[CurtessECarr]

10m for someone who's had half a good season in the championship.
Take that all day. In fact I'd take far less.
Back under Martin with new players around him playing to his style he'll probably look a bit dodgy early on.

 

[Swanjaxs]

I'd sell at half that price to be honest, was absolutely gobsmacked when he was called up by England U21's, selling Wood will improve one of our problem areas...

"While the exact percentage is not known, Boro did include what has been described to the Northern Echo as a "very healthy" sell-on clause when Wood left for Swansea last summer."

Wood for me is one of those under the "huge potential but much to learn" categories
£10m with a 40% sell on fee or £15m with a 20% sell on fee (because fcuk you Southampton) and it would be a yes from me
Nathan Tjoe-A-On is his obvious replacement and is naturally left footed

 

[sainthelens]

Nice bit o business and bunce.
Cheerio fella.

 

[CurtessECarr]

Would anyone other than Martin come in for a bid anything like that for Wood?
He played 40 games in a defence that was the 5th worse in the league.
He bought Darling from his previous club and although a promising prospect no one else put forward the cash we did.

 

[CygnusX1]

Depends on the sell-on clause really. No clause and I’d take the money

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

Cheerio woody mush

 

[FearOfAJackPlanet]

He may go on to be a great player worth zillions, but I've never really seen it myself. Decent young player, that's about it.

If we can clear 10 million after paying 'Boro what they're owed via sell-on clause, then that would be fantastic.

 

[Neath_Jack]

As of 13:20 this afternoon, no official bid had been made.

 

[welshswan]

Boro clause is 35%

 

[FearOfAJackPlanet]

Boro clause is 35%

 

[Longlostjack]

If it’s true it it‘s good news. Would like to see Piroe extend his contract. Might make it easier for that to happen.

 

[LeonWasTheDog's]

10m cash and a 25% sell on and we should start the car. Decent player but he won't be an Ashley Williams.

People forget he’s only just turned 21. At that age, Ash still had another 4 years in League 2 ahead of him.
