On Bob Wilson's home debut, virtually every kick he took from the BB end ended up in the Old Grandstand, it was woeful !
It was the same with Krysiak's kicking he always used to kick into touch and had his moments and howlers!

But wasn't a bad shot stopper when it came down to it.

So all keepers are better at certain aspects of their game.

Just at this stage we don't know Woods better aspects.....🤔

On this occasion your pal was right, but then a stopped watch is correct twice a day. Would imagine forecasting results on the basis of past performances of someone who played a handful of games for your club almost a decade ago is a quick route to the poor house.
The ball punched in his own net was just an example of his ineptitude whilst playing for the Os I'm told.
My point was that he was reminded of that unfortunate incident throughout the game by the Orient fans, can't have been easy for him.

We all knew Woods was never good enough last season
Should never have been signed very very poor keeper

That sums it up for me. Woods is clearly not a League 1 level keeper. I had hoped that he wouldnt get selected again following that devastatingly bad game he had towards the end of last season, where we lost by about four goals, all of which he was in part culpable for. He appeared to give up in that game, letting goals in for fun! His confidence was clearly lacking in last saturdays game, by the woeful way he stayed on his line for all corners and crosses. Hopefully there is another keeper that can be brought in, maybe on loan?
