Woods joined Liverpool youth academy at the age of 10 but failed to break into the first team and was given a free transfer in May 2006.
He signed for Dunfermline Athletic after a trial spell alongside fellow former Liverpool player Robbie Foy[2] and played 13 games for the club in his first season. In March 2008, manager Jim McIntyre confirmed that Woods had signed a two-year contract extension.[3][4] He scored his first goal for Dunfermline on 4 November 2008 when he scored the opener at Airdrie United.
Woods enjoyed a successful 2010–11 season with Dunfermline, scoring four goals in thirty seven appearances, in the process helping the Pars achieve promotion to the Scottish Premier League as Champions of Scottish Division One. Woods became the centre of controversy after he was fielded as a substitute when suspended during Dunfermline's 7–1 Scottish Cup fourth round victory over Stenhousemuir.[5]
On 8 June 2011, he joined Football League One side Huddersfield Town on a free transfer, signing a two year contract that will see him stay at the club until the summer of 2013.[6] He made his debut in the 1-1 draw with Bury at the Galpharm Stadium on 6 August 2011.
