An apparently underwhelming signing compared to some of the names that have been thrown around, but even if all he does is get the goals to get us through January until someone else comes in, or through the next 8 weeks till Wilson is back, we could one day look back on Wood as being Howe's most important signing, no matter who else comes in. In the same way that despite signing Shearer Ferdinand, Ginola, etc, I think Keegan's most important signing was Kilcline.
Apparently Wilson averages a goal every 218 mins in the PL. Wood averages a goal every 219 mins in the PL. I just lifted this stat from somewhere and haven't checked it's accuracy but sounds reassuring...
Who cares, it ain't my money. At least it shows the owners are desperate to stay up by any means necessarry. 25m is pennies to them
