or it's the kind of dream one wakes up from and realises is actually true! You'll be in such shock, your voice will actually sound identical to Sean Dyche's. The bed sheets will go from a light yellow tinge to a dark brown in just a matter of seconds into waking up. Even when you try to fall back asleep, the new smell of your bed-sheets will keep making you think you're already at Turf Moor.

Dyche in his goth days. Explains the voice as well. This must have been when they signed Chris Eagles. At least it's not the typical shirt-held-in-the-air shot.
No no! Dyche is post-op transgender (F to M). If I were in the same boat, the first thing I'd do would be to grow a bristly goatee (perfectly trimmed of course, old bush-trimming habits never die) and pitch the voice at number eleven on the butchness scale, and indeed positively revel in the male pattern baldness. I thought everyone could see that?

I think that I may posted this remark on another thread by mistake but is Wood better than we have at the moment? I am not sure that he is.to warrant spending £12m

Clearly not, but unfortunately there's a premium for English players for some bizarre reason (detriment to our national team, as we'll look elsewhere) remove the premium and the price is probably realistically £6/7 Million, which is still expensive but coming off a great season for him.

I'm a bit concerned about Chris Wood's ability to last the season. He didn't have a very long summer break as he played for New Zealand's Confederations Cup in the summer. Ability wise he'd be a good long-term prospect though.

I've never seen Wood have a decent game for Leeds against us. He only scored 2 at Elland Road because of the makeshift defence he was up against. He is lightweight - any robust defender will outmuscle him every time. Duffy would have had an easy game that day had he been fit
Sure, but he was superb against us for Millwall a few seasons ago. Scored twice, including a beauty from the edge of the area after CMS let a simple throw in bounce off his shin six feet away
rolleyes to Wood who turned and bent it into the top corner.He was also decent FOR us when he came here on loan. That said, I don't think he's what we're looking for. Good in the air, decent at holding the ball up, knows where the goals is - but not pacy or mobile enough to play up top on his own at this level.

Probably the worst description of Chris Wood you'll ever see.

Peter O'Rourke? I wouldn't take him seriously.

Wood, does not really fit the bill of Pace that CH mentioned when talking of forward players recently.
Despite the obvious weaknesses to his game, he clearly knows where the net is. I suspect hes not high up our list but you dont score that amount of goals playing up front on your own and not be a decent player.

Isnt he usually pretty accurate in his tweets with rumours.
