January Transfer Window.

[RoverDom]

Nothing on the forest forum to suggest it hasn't gone through (nothing to suggest it has either)

Disgraceful that the club have said absolutely nothing 

Nothing about our 4th round win either. No post match reaction. No celebratory tweets, no re tweeting of players bigging up the win. Nothing.

With our cup record, being in the 5th round is a big deal!

More likely end up signing the Rochdale kid and no one else. (Was it Rochdale?)

The Rochdale site think he’s staying put.

Maybe Universal Studios are still working on the announcement video

Maybe that’s because there’s nothing to say ?

I suspect that there’s media being done/been done and it’ll be released in a barrage. I have to assume only O’Brien and the Rochdale youngster, unless there’s a free transfer happening. Disappointing, really. We need goals.

😂 Now that would be typical Rovers!

Not signing an experienced striker will be nothing short of a major cock up. Not signing an experienced striker and an experienced midfield player will be disastrous.

31 days - that’s 744 hours - that’s how long the club had to source players and bring in a striker. With 2 hours left we were still searching. What happened to the other 742? 

 

I don’t want to hear the BS ‘yeah but two striker deals fell through, we agreed two deals’ 

Are either of them through the door? NO. Simply not good enough at all, and there’s no way anyone can change that. 
 

Second transfer window in a row that’s been a failure. 

[SBlue]

I'm worried about the O'Brien thing more now.

Expectation management? Make us think we haven't signed O'Brien then announce him to distract from the striker situation?

 

Or - we've ballsed it all up.

[J*B]

It’s probably announcement delay anxiety but I’m worried now. 

[Bethnal]

Rovers have tweeted a match report from last night, which is both expected and somewhat unexpected, as first tweet of the day.

[Dreams of 1995]

I don’t get why they aren’t announcing lol

Is it paperwork issues? I know you have so many hours after the deadline but god damn put me out my misery 

[bazza]

Earlier, Radio Lancs said Rovers have done business yesterday and it will be announced today.

It's difficult to maintain the mindset that something hasn't gone wrong...

So disastrous that last night we won our game without either of those players.

I reckon we managed to land an overseas striker but medical and everything had to be done abroad to be done in time and he's flown over this morning for the double announcement with LOB 🤞 ... Gregg couldn't could he?

[Danny O.Brien]

Let's be honest it's a domino affect. If west Brom pursued O'Brien he'd be there, then Sheffield united were interested. Until they decided they weren't selling Berge. We were the third choice so obviously had to wait. Just hope it got done. I do agree we needed a striker too. And reading jdts comments last night it sounds like he agrees. Along the lines of we played well but struggled putting the ball in the net.

[goozburger]

Only free agent signings can be made, now. The O'Brien and Brierley deals would have had to have been signed by 1am this morning. So it's either the club are waiting to announce, which I can only imagine might be down to finalising the media content, or the deals have not been completed and are off the cards.

Hopefully it is just the club being slow and not making their marketing team work into the early hours if things were being finalised.

I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and predict that hasn't happened.

Come off it matey. It's bleedin' obvious we need at least 3 quality players in to sustain a promotion push

 

[Madon]

I've just received a message saying O'Brien has fallen through as the paperwork wasn't completed in time 🙈🤣. 

 

 

WOW

Pretty sure they'll make an announcement if we don't make any signings. 

I'm pretty sure they won't. They'd go into hiding instead! It'll be Sharpe breaking any bad news.

Absolute joke
