bit of sad news...

Ex Wood keeper Rich Barrett snapped both his cruciate ligaments in September and is having an op today..

Chatting to Rich sadly he reckons that is probably it for him - won't be able to kick a ball for at least 9 months and is probably facing 18 months out and cannot see himself coming back!

I will put an update on the site when I get it....

Rich promises he will come up and see us and says that "the Wood were by far the best club he played for"


Rich is a top bloke and I am sure we all wish him the best for today - and the future....
