Forward will miss the clash at Wembley
Luton striker Cauley Woodrow has been ruled out of the Championship play-off final with Coventry City on Saturday after failing to recover from his knee injury.
The 28-year-old, who came through the ranks at Kenilworth Road before moving away to join Fulham, returning after a decade away in the summer following a highly productive spell with Barnsley, had finally been getting a run of games before his injury, scoring in the 2-0 win at Rotherham United.
However, he then went off in the 1-1 draw with Reading and hasn’t featured since, as although boss Rob Edwards had hoped he would make the final, those chances are over
Speaking today, he said: “It’s just Cauley Woodrow, he’s not come through, he’s tried everything, bless him and we’ll miss him.
“He’s been really important for us, I know he’s not played or started every single game, but he’s been important for us.
“He’s tried everything, he’s had some injections, he’s had various things, lots and lots of treatment.
“It’s just really unfortunate that he couldn’t, it was just the turnaround time was too quick.
“He tried to get it going before the second semi-final 10 days ago and it just didn’t feel right.
