Windy on COYS on the Goat info. I’m hoping he’s right.

Onomah is injured - it'll be Edwards and Griffiths.
I'd be surprised if Griffiths was going with talks of a new deal circling. I gather the goat wouldn't say leaving if it was loans either as you would probably use different language. CCV is on the US tour so that would probably rule out an immediate departure for him. Looking increasingly likely to be Edwards which is a massive shame with the amount of talent he has to unlock.

Just seen A&C's post and it is Onomah, two players that probably had the most talk from our academy in the last 4 years or so what a massive shame. Onomah needs to sit down with Barrios and take some lessons in upping his aggression. If he did that he might not be on his way out.

You're reading too much into the 'language'. I gave up trying to write stuff that can't be taken 26 ways a long time ago, it's impossible. Now I just save myself the angst and the time, throw it out there and it's still taken a load of different ways :D

I don’t see how an Onomah injury would scupper a move unless he’s out for half the season + . The goat info re him and Edwards seems very likely given how far down the pecking order they both are.

I would feel more comfortable if Edwards/Onomah were good loans or at the very least sales including a favourable buy back clause...so, if I am reading correctly, the use of leaving in the original post not definitely meaning outright sales is good news...

Onomah leaving on a permanent deal would be a gutter. Sends out all the wrong signals to the talent we have coming through the ranks too.

Not sure what I want more, alder to stay and us have the best defence in the league or him to leave so I can get that juicy gossip

Again, too much gets read into the wording. The Goat has no idea what type of deal it would be, The Goat's source never mentioned it, but from reading the wording, people can't half suss/make up a lot :D

It's such a shame what, seemingly, is going on with Edwards. He seemed to have so much potential. Hate the idea of giving up on ether of those two. Would hope they are just loans but would understand if they are not at this point.

Onomah is not good enough for our first team, he's nowhere near the level required from what I've seen of him so I'd be happy for him to be gone if it's gonna help us strengthen the first 11.

What is the message we should send though? Even if you don't fulfil you're talent you can still stay at the club? I'd love to see Josh become a first team player but it seems to be looking less and less likely, it'd be a bloody shame but football is an unsentimental business at this level.
