If he stays fit and does well for them maybe a way back would not mind that at all.
Interesting. If his contract had run out and we refused to release his registration when he wanted to sign for someone else, I'm pretty sure that we would have been hammered under employment law. I can't see that we had any grounds at all to request terms added to the deal if Edwards' contract had expired.
It is also very likely that Edwards would need to be registered with a club as part of an insurance policy incase he got injured whilst training with us.
Woltman has been injured for the past three months (and was injured before that to boot). Don't think it's fair to say we dropped the ball on him, he was always a player with potential and it's a shame he appears to be injury prone at just 21.
There's a difference between an injury-prone player who keeps suffering recurring or similar injuries (Marcus Browne, for example) and someone who has been unfortunate enough to suffer unrelated injuries through things like horrible collisions. My understanding is Waltman falls into the latter category.

Emmanuel Latte Lath: Middlesbrough striker joins MLS team Atlanta United
Middlesbrough have allowed striker Emmanuel Latte Lath to leave in a club record £22.5m deal that takes him to MLS side Atlanta United.
Possession isn't everything. When we beat Peterborough 5-0, we had something silly like 25% possession. Same for Forest when they beat Brighton 7-0 at the weekend.
It's certainly a risk to stand still but Leeds have the benefit of being the best team in the league by a distance, their major weakness is Meslier who has cost them a load of points this season. If they had Trafford in goal for example then they'd easily be 10 points clear of the playoffs, that seems the area they need to strengthen pretty urgently. Perhaps they're gambling that they go up and even better is available rather than pending money now for a smaller improvement but it is a risk, especially as those below have strengthened.
Yeah but if you combine having the ball more than anyone with creating the most chances and conceding the fewest chances, you won’t go far wrong.
If they are, we’ve had serious injury problems!
Not necessarily - Kyle Edwards was a free agent but has been training for months.
My brother's a Leeds fan and he reckons they'd be better off playing without a keeper than having Meslier in goal
He's a free agent! Don't think he's playing any more. But we have three decent right backs.
Probably still laughing about the amount of wage he was receiving whilst being here. For all the talk of him being a decent player, there’s collective amnesia about him being one of highest-paid players at the squad
Burnley would have pushed more to score if Helik doesnt put it in his own net, so I am not holding that against him. On top of that, it would only be 3 points, 2 against Bristol City, and 1 against Burnley.
Well we don't know what he was paid, so that's not very relevant. I thought he was OK but flattered to deceive, he generally lost the ball on his epic dribbles.
On the same subject, am I right in thinking that Robinson gave Stuart Findlay a 4yr contract which still has over a year to run. Plus he cost us approx. the same fee as Goodwin.
