Ossydave Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 MLS season runs from end of Feb to October, not sure how that would be a viable option for him, unless they can just do a deal till the prem season ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Somerset Rover Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Unlike Nixon to cover all bases. Given Cooper said they’ll look after him, I could have written that! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweaty Gussets Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 So Nixon's saying in the S*n rag that the LOB appeal has failed, but then when questioned on twitter he denies it's failed? I don't get the Nixon hate most of the time, but I do today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It surely can't be the latter, which would mean Rovers already know.... I reckon it’s the former, hence the confusion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt there are many left to abuse him and again it's nothing unique to Rovers fans. Many other clubs sets of fans have him down as a major BS merchant as well. I remember getting banned by him by asking an innocent question 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Yeah, he blocked me for politely pointing out a basic error in one of his Rovers ‘stories’. Seems he’s not keen on being proven wrong and his guesswork being made obvious. Today’s piece is a perfect example. Big headline that the appeal has failed, then when probes: ‘well, I’m just saying that it might fail, but it also might not…’ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled_Rover Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 It has to have failed - he'll miss the game on Weds too now. That's 3 matches he could have played - gets to the point where the loan isn't worth it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by some miracle O'Brians loan was approved, who would pay his wages for the two weeks he hasn't been available to us ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If by some miracle he is approved I think our lawyers should be onto the EFL around compensation. Three games without a top player simply isn't fair on us should they admit their mistake.

Tugayisgod Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Nixon saying the decision is "odd to say the least " Wonder if the loan has been given the go ahead but the permanent transfer deal scrapped ? After all it's been confirmed that the initial paperwork was sent in in time, but the EFL then threw a spanner in the works by wanting this confirmation of what would happen if we were relegated ? Maybe they are accepting some responsibility ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are accepting some responsibility ? That's what I'm thinking. It could give the EFL the option of ratifying the deal whilst saving face. An option which suits all parties. If that is the outcome it would be peculiar, given the EFL's constant fear of litigation from other clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweaty Gussets Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 A red-top journalist, who apparently knows the answer, is not going to spill the beans as it's for Rovers to announce. 🤔😁 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
