It seems he was at loggerheads with them even after the court case. However he could certainly reform BCR with some members for a final BCR tour.
Fans will still go if band is made up from the original or classic line up. However this is not BCR and Woody should not be using the name.

Well its more BCR than a group without even one of them in it, and they are fast running out of options.
As long as the adverts make it very clear that there is only Woody, it looks like good fun.
This would be my line up BCR if they were to do one last tour.
Nobby Clark
Woody
Eric
Pat
Derek
Alan Dunn
Bearing in mind the main lead singer, Les, could only sell very small theatres, such as Horsham capitol for his "Legendary Bay City Rollers tour". This lot could barely sell out a church hall.
Not to mention Eric and Derek weren't prepared to go on the money spinning tour of 2015, they are not likely to sign up to perform with Nobby Clark, who nowone remembers as singer of that one single. As for Pat McGlynn, the singles had dried up by that time. Without Les and Alan, sadly there can be no Bay City Rollers.
Most bands on tour from 1970s and 1980s play in town theatres, which have sold out or near enough full. People will attend for the nostalgia and just have a night out.
Not everyone one is negative like you Robbie I bet you're a joy a parties...not.
KISS still sell out arenas and theatres despite a lot lineup changes, Paul Stanley vocals are not the same but the fans don't care. They go to have a fun hence why KISS call the concerts Parties. I have seen KISS live over the years and still waiting to be disappointed.

I'm not negative, just realistic and want value for money. When I saw bcr in 2015, they had 3 original members, but were supported by the Sweet, who I think only had one original member (Steve Priest I think), but they had no credibility. At least "From the Jam", who had 2 original members didn't claim to be the Jam. My point is that this line-up, which is highly unlikely to happen wouldn't have much currency. Derek is happy been a nurse and Eric has been estranged for years.
