During the press conference, Twain promised Pierce Brosnan that George Wood was definitely staying in the club. However, he only said so to placate the team and the fans. He did not know if Wood was going to stay with the club. He was not foolish enough to think that Wood had a change of heart simply because he came back to practice.
This whole issue between him and Wood was yet to be over. Tony Twain had to speak to Wood. This time, they needed to speak in an environment that was peaceful, and they both needed to be frank and open with their thoughts so as to be able to solve what was going on between them.
Twain was definitely not going to tell Wood that his mother was doomed to die or that he should give up on treatment for his mother. He just wanted to tell Wood that he has to be more realistic. Nottingham Forest had tried its best to provide Sophia with treatment. They had even sent her to America, where the treatment methods were the most advanced.
