Chris Wood Signs for Barnsley!
http://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10309~2162675,00.html
NEW Zealand international striker Chris Wood has today turned down a host of Championship clubs to join Mark Robins' Oakwell revolution.
The 18-year-old, who featured in all three of his country's matches in South Africa last summer, has joined the Reds on a 93 day emergency loan and will go straight into the squad for Saturday's clash with Reading.
A young striker with enormous potential, Chris was born in Auckland and travelled to the other side of the world in 2008 to join West Bromwich Albion's Academy. Part of the New Zealand set up following his debut in the 2009 Confederations Cup, he made his first appearance for West Brom the same year. He has gone on to make 27 first team appearances for the Baggies.
Chris has won 13 international caps for New Zealand and is in the All Whites squad for next month's international double header against Honduras and Paraguay. Amazingly, Chris is the seventh New Zealand international to ply his trade at Oakwell following in the footsteps of Rory Fallon, David Mulligan, Leo Bertos, Jeremy Christie, Allan Pearce and Colin Walker.
The relevant paperwork has now been finalised and the deal is subject to registration with the Football Authorities.

That's just the point WE weren't according to neutrals. same old same old.........more possession, shots on target, corners and we lose 3-0.
Sounds like a familiar story for us but as said before both clubs need to put this behind them and move on.
