David Woodison......."Due
to the clubs financial plight the squad’s wage bill was being reduced
and I was given the chance to leave despite the year remaining on my
contract.
Quite
simply, I hadn’t been enjoying it for the last two months so I agreed to
discuss a settlement. An agreement was quickly reached a few days later
and my full time football career was over. Retirement!
I was sad to see the back of
Rugby
Park,
as any supporter in my position would be, but I had become too involved
in the football club and had too many conflicting interests.
Laterally in my time at
Rugby
Park
I also worked part time for an IT company and I have continued to do so
over the summer.
I am
soon to leave home for
Heriot
Watt
University,
Edinburgh,
where I will be studying Business and Economics and I’m looking forward
to the years ahead. Everything is going well at the moment!
Footballing future? ....Well, I'm still rather bored with
it just now. I’ve played in a few fun games such as Killiefc.com day and
have recently played a couple of games with Killie IFC. Will wait and
see how things to at Uni; I might try and find a part time club up there
or try and get a game with the Uni team but I’ll wait and see how thing
develop.
And
Kilmarnock
FC? …. I’ve got my
season ticket and will go to games when possible. The next few months
should be interesting off-field, I feel it may be time for change there
too as the supporters become increasingly discontent with the current
Board.
Jefferies is a very astute Gaffer and is an asset to the club, hopefully
he will remain at the helm for a further few years. If he guides us to
Europe,
I’d do my best to be there, pissed, the right way to follow Killie. The
way I’ve been unable to follow my team up until now!
