Prose

Lead: "He spent two seasons with the club, being joint top scorer with 17 goals in the latter" - I'm assuming you mean the second season here, but it's a little unclear so try and clarify.
Reworded. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
York city: "he was substituted for Arran Reid in the 17th minute after goalkeeper Tom Evans was sent off" - is Reid another goalkeeper or something? Little more detail why Woolford was substituted would be good here.
Expanded. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
York city: "he scored York's goals in a 2–1 away victory over Woking" - insert the word "both" here for clarity.
Inserted. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Scunthorpe United: "with the fee being believed to be a six-figure fee with a sell-on clause." - remove "being", it reads awkwardly.
Removed. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
International career: who is the quote ("constant threat down the left") from?
Don't know, it's just a quote taken directly from the source. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
In that case, I'd say "and was described as a "constant threat down the left"", rather than just and was a ""constant threat down the left"." ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 01:52, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Done. Mattythewhite (talk) 01:54, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Personal life: any word on whether he's obtained either of those two degrees?

Source reliability

I'm not sure about the reliability of Findmypast.com (current source #1) or Sportbox.tv (current source #3). I think if you can replace them you should, but it's not a major worry.
The "FAQs" page of Findmypast.com states "We are one of the leading suppliers of online family history, and pride ourselves on the quality of our records" and "We offer an entire copy of the indexes of births, marriages and deaths for England and Wales from 1837 to 2006". Do you think this helps establish it as a WP:RS? And the "About" page of Sportbox states it is provided by Opta and their homepage states "We have the biggest and best database of sports information on the planet". Again, would this help satisfy WP:RS?
Hmmm, that helps. While probably not very reliable, I think they're both fine for GA purposes. If you're planning on going to FA I;d advocate their replacement. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 01:52, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
Additional

This souce mentions that he used to work on a building site, perhaps that can be added?

Overall

Very nice article overall. Most of these points are relatively minor and can be fixed easily.
I am placing this article on hold for seven days to allow you to fix the problems listed. I'm aware that it is Easter weekend, so if you need extra time just let me know.
To make it easier for me to see how much work has been done, please either strike each comment when the problem has been fixed or post a note underneath each item saying it is completed.
Feel free request to clarification on anything; you can leave comments on my talk page or here, as I have this page watchlisted.
