Chris Wood (Nottingham Forest | England)
Not knowing Chris I would be personally disappointed.
Dissapointing though that in a preseason game he only got a few minutes when he would have had 90 for the U20's
Had 30 mins as a sub in 2 nd half
He's been loaned to Birmingham for a month ... they play Derby in their Championship opener tonight...

I see the Baggies have signed West Ham target Shane Long from Reading.
Not good news for Woody if he had hoped to get some premier league minutes this season. Hopefully he can impress enough at Brum to earn a starting place.
Wood was also left cursing his luck a minute before the break when he hit the crossbar following a Beausejour free-kick.
The visitors carried that momentum into the second half and, inside two minutes of the restart, they hit the post yet again.
Redmond's drive from outside the box was parried by Elisson but Chris Burke picked up possession and his cross was headed onto the upright by Wood.
Wood then fired an effort across the face of goal before Nacional tried their luck with efforts from Mateus and Diego Barcelos, although neither troubled Boaz Myhill.
The one month deal always seemed a bit odd to me, but could make sense if there was an understanding that Europa qualification would make an extension possible?
Just a theory...
Marvelous effort that.
Good man.Nice and easy does it.Confidence x10 now

And with the encounter looking set to finish 1-1, the hosts gave away possession in midfield and Beausejour set up Wood who finished clinically.
Yet there was still time for more late action as Taylor pounced with his close-range header to delight the home support.
