Seems to have pretty decent knowledge of Lancs clubs. Lives in the area I think.

Too late now, but Kanyospor playing as I write, and Hadziametovic isn't on the bench, again.
I know the Turkish window has a bit longer to run, but do you suppose they have upset him.

Thought he’d signed for Besiktas?

Not according to Wiki, although I know that isn't guaranteed accurate.

I'd be amazed if Blackburn get O'Brien on appeal - West Brom and their solicitors will be sitting outside EFL headquarters as we speak

Always bothers me why clubs leave it to such a last minute. Absolutely crazy
Yes that is bizarre, and if you wait until deadline day there is always the risk of deals collapsing with no time to arrange alternatives.

Thankfully Burnley got our business down swiftly this window, so we can sit back and laugh at the likes of Rovers scrambling for last minute signings.

No way the EFL will overturn that.

Imagine, hypothetically, the absolute shitstorm created if Blackburn beat Boro/WBA/Norwich in the Play Off Final 1-0 with O'Brien scoring or assisting that goal?

Won't happen, no chance. Too much risk.

OH WELL :D

No sympathy for the clubs involved but feel sorry for O'Brien, it's his livelihood after all.

Because its his job, and contacts built up over years, more so at some clubs in the local area because that's where he's based.

Rovers have now issued a statement confirming that both transfers they were trying to get through have been rejected. They plan to appeal and have until 7th to do so.

According to Fabio Silva's Dad, Burnley failed in January swoop for Fabio Silva on a loan from Wolves (instead went to PSV, after spending first half of the season at Anderlecht).

Apologies if already posted.

Shebby, Berg, Coyle, Appleton and Kean may have left but the circus is still certainly in town.

They’ve also isolated the other Huddersfield lad they signed, Toffolo. Was in Anderlecht ready to sign for them, everything all done but Forest pulled the plug at the last second as they found an injury to someone else in the squad. Think Anderlecht are lodging a complaint to FIFA or whoever it is.

I doubt they will but I would love for them to get relegated

I normally delete twitter when the window shuts, so glad I didn't.

It's never attained the same level of giddiness since Shebby left.
