There were a lot of teams interested in Wood, but very few which could make Twain feel nervous.
Could anyone imagine George Wood, who was the main force in the Forest team, going to a lower-ranking team in the league?
In the past, there had been a lot of clubs asking about prices just like that; there was even an English championship team asking if they could loan Wood! Twain thought that they should really check their intelligence before coming to him about Wood.
However, on the morning of January 3, the Nottingham Forest Club received two offers from two different clubs, giving Evan Doughty no choice but to call Twain from his house. Together with Allan, they gathered to discuss the two offers.
Evan sat behind his desk with two faxes on it, one with the Manchester United team emblem and the other with Chelsea's.
"Tony, did their men get in touch with Wood?" Allan asked Twain.
