Cork City have announced the signing of former Rebel winger Billy Woods. Woods, who has extensive League of Ireland experience with Cork City and Shamrock Rovers, can play at left back or on the wing.
Commenting on the signing, City boss Tommy Dunne said: “I am delighted to have Billy on board. We have been short of left sided players this season, and the fact that Billy can play anywhere on the left flank gives us options on that side of the pitch. The fact that he has huge experience of the league is also a bonus, as again that is something that we have perhaps lacked a little, and I believe his experience will be a big asset to the club for the remainder of the season.”
Woods, who made his League debut for Cork City in the 1993-94 season, has been playing with his local side Midleton in the Munster Senior League in recent months, and he told CorkCityFC.net that he was pleased to have signed: “I’m delighted to have signed. I know Tommy Dunne for many years, we were team-mates at Shamrock Rovers, and Cork City is a club that means a lot to me, so I am pleased to have the opportunity to be part of the good work being done at the club. I hope that my experience in the league can be of benefit to the squad over the course of the season as we look to challenge for the promotion play-off places.”
