I know you aren't entirely serious, but even so he would have had to be released before the deadline in order for us to sign him.

To be fair they, and everyone else had the whole window to go for him.

What about that mate of yours that said it was the best ever football he had seen from a Rovers side after those two games under Mowbray in 2020?!

It probably has, but they would no doubt feel stupid announcing that as our marquee deadline day signing.

Gets the player playing football to put himself in the shop window for a move in the summer, that £10m was fantasy land stuff anyway, and everyone at our end knew that and that's why it was agreed too.

Could it not go through just as a "loan" deal then in that case if all partys were happy?

Course they will. Such is the apathy by March it will be old news. Everyone will be saying "well lets see what we do in the summer window" etc etc

Is there any windows still open abroad? Could be an option for him until the summer.

Agree with above to be fair, i too think its been rejected and we are trying to appeal it.

Nothing.

Surely either the paperwork was late, or it wasn't. Why the need for this ridiculous waiting game,

Forest have overseen loads of transfers over the past couple of windows, where as we know we always seem to struggle to get things over the line. IF there is an issue here, history would tell me it wouldn't be the selling clubs fault.

I think deep down we know the answer.

It was £20, same happened for the Sunderland game earlier on in the season which was midweek, and we charged £25 because they would bring a few. Also. if you signed up for the 1875 club as a non ST holder you were promised £5 each off the "derby" games, another thing that has conveniently been forgotten with both the Wigan and Blackpool games.

Could be for 3 positions. Sneaky feeling Dack might be moved up front again in a "false 9" seeing as we haven't got a striker. It won't work.

Maybe that's the plan.

I'm not sure anyone cares enough to do that do they? Probably just pretend the day never happened and move on.

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

Does make you wonder why the game couldn't have just been played tomorrow instead.

Not a chance with Gallagher up top. Get a striker in and on paper it should be doable, the manager might have other ideas though.

They went down last night according to Rich.

Phillips out on loan for a few months seems a good idea to me. Cook and Ayala depart in the summer, hopefully Ash comes in ready to start most games,

Pretty sure nobody has suggested to get Berge?!

Not that odd really, think both show one replay each, Sunderland v Fulham and Sheff Utd v Wrexham will no doubt get the TV treatment.

But the usual suspects were telling us yesterday that we would have no chance because he would smash our pay structure, on 3 times our highest earner etc etc. I don't believe for a second Preston can afford him and we can't, we just don't want to recruit a midfielder, which is even more alarming to the current setup as it's as clear as day we need somebody in there.
