Considering Boyd would either play up front or as an attacking winger of some sort, we have - Rojas, Smeltz, Brockie, Kosta, Ryan Thomas, potentially Howieson/Wood/Payne, even Fenton depending on how the new manager utilises them. Plenty of talent.

What a difference a few years make in football

To think we held Howieson at the same level as Woody

Scored quite a good free kick against Suarez era Liverpool apparently. Seemed to be playing in similar competition.

Yes at the time he was one of our hopes for the future, funnily enough Liverpool were said to have been interested in him while he was contracted with Burnley. Though now of course it seems ludicrous to put him in the same bracket as Wood. Of those players listed, only four are regular All Whites - Rojas, Wood, Kosta and Thomas. Fenton and Brockie don't really get a look in, Howieson and Payne aren't even pro's anymore, and Smeltz hasn't played like a pro for a while now too. Oh how the times change

Crazy to think Tim Payne’s still only 23, remember he was absolutely sick on FIFA 13 when he signed for Blackburn. Howieson was huge for Burnley’s youth too, failed in the Scottish 2nd div and now he’s a nobody on the world stage sadly. Wood was always pretty huge, something i didn’t actually know was that he played in the Europa League for Birmingham (where he scored a winner vs Club Brugge in the 10th minute of injury time) when he was still a teenager, younger than guys like Patterson and Bevan are now. Anyway, this is Boyd’s page, right? Good player
