Will be a good signing if he can get ... and stay fit. Hope Stoke have signed him on a pay-as-you-play deal.

 

[Jak]

is it just an ordinary contract or a pay as you play? The latter would be ideal due to his injury record. If he can stay fit he is still a great player

It's a pay as you play contract, maybe if you bothered to read the article you would know.

I skim read it and didn't see that. sue me

Hit or miss really. If they manage him well then he could be a fantastic coup. He is one of the best defenders in England but one knock and that could be him again.

Hopefully he will show the form of Leeds & Middlesbrough.

Great CB when fit but that is unusual these days.

Also shows how desperate he is to play by taking a pay as you play. Respect to him. Always like his drive and determination

Good look Woody.

Local boy will always have my love, respect and admiration.

Think I might reconsider my feelings for Stoke if they actually play him, might become a bit of a Stoke watcher just to see Woody play.
