A week ago, Woodgate was under-fire but a win against Charlton and a draw at Nottingham Forest has eased the pressure. He says his chairman Steve Gibson is fully behind after their meeting on Thursday. Swansea is up next.

It was only a few months Cameron Toshack was being linked with managerial roles in the Championship and Portugal. Now, he has left his under-23s role ahead of a fresh challenge elsewhere. Where will he go?
5. Derby can make play-offs, claim Wayne Rooney
The former Manchester United man spoke to the press as his debut edges closer in the New Year. Derby are six points off the play-offs, however Rooney believes his team can secure a spot come May.
6. Preston sweat over EFL refereeing appointment
