[Archived] Transfer Deadline Day

[RockinRover]

Which basically means Sam Allardyce, the Rodney to Harry Rednapp's Del Boy is expecting to sign him for free once we terminate his contract.

[owenrilla]

Oh yes he can !!!

Many incorrectly think you can't but here's the proof !!!

Not according to the document on FIFA's website:

3. Players may be registered with a maximum of three clubs during one

season. During this period, the player is only eligible to play offi cial matches

for two clubs. As an exception to this rule, a player moving between two clubs

belonging to associations with overlapping seasons (i.e. start of the season in

summer/autumn as opposed to winter/spring) may be eligible to play in offi cial

matches for a third club during the relevant season, provided he has fully

complied with his contractual obligations towards his previous clubs. Equally,

the provisions relating to the registration periods (article 6) as well as to the

minimum length of a contract (article 18 paragraph 2) must be respected.

Great I can imagine that may put an end to a few incomings and we are stuck with him

[AdamRochina]

jerome thomas deal isnt happening anymore according to twitter ect.

[chaddyrovers]

So, Jerome Thomas - Alex Baptiste and DJ Campbell are the 3 in ? I just came home from work and need the latest update

would be 3 good signings for us. hope it happens

There will be a midfeld signing...

who please???

Could Fulham move for Robbo or will Rovers try to agree a pay off for him to become a free agent?

[Lurid Coat]

jerome thomas deal isnt happening anymore according to twitter ect.

Oh FFS. If this is due to Robinson demanding a huge payoff, I'll be livid. He's let himself go, and should be happy that West Ham actually wants him

[roversfan99]

Where does it say that?

[RockinRover]

Don't hate on Robbo when you don't know the story. Hate Rovers fans sometimes. The man's been a fantastic servant for us.

[AdamRochina]

cryer tweeted about it, and nothing to do with robbo, it was to do with holliete/odimwingie.

plus few baggies been told jerome staying put - edit

West Brom reporter @chrislepkowski reporting Thomas deal possibly affected by the Hoilett/Odemwingie saga #LTtransfers

How so? In the sense that he's been here a while and been paid to do a job he hasn't done particularly well but waved to fans now as then?

Strong kicking skills but even that went downhill this season

Please not that I put an "if" in there, as it's been rumoured that he's demanding to have his contract paid off by Rovers. Yes, he's been a great servant for us, but that doesn't mean I condone his letting himself go and potentially demanding a king's ransom to leave.

Everybody gather round. RockinRover has a story to tell.

Harsh.

Robbo has been a fine GK for us.

He's done everything we've asked of him since he's been with us. He's shared a great relationship with the fans and he's often kept us from losing points in previous seasons.

[chaddyrovers]

ssn is saying Peter Odenwingie is not going to QPR now

[RockinRover]

So wait it's RUMOURED that Robbo isn't leaving because he's demanding a pay off so we're all just forgetting what a good player he's been for us?

[Tom]

Harsh.

Robbo has been a fine GK for us.

Yes he's been fine for the most part and great instinct saves but he's prone to errors, weak in the air, poor on shots from distance and had the worst shots to goals conceded ratio in the league a year or two back.

Always liked the guy I just don't understand where this 'great servant' stuff comes from

[LeChuck]

The story is that he's been rubbish and was dropped for, and subsequently out-performed by, a rookie goalkeeper.

Obviously has no ambition left as a professional if he's happy to sit on our bench for six months rather than go back to the PL.

[jones_rover]

Hopefully we can tie up Jerome Thomas now then!

It would appear this is the case, if he wants his contract paying out.

[RockinRover]

The fact is apart from the ITKers on this forum no one actually knows what's going on with Robbo so don't pretend to know it all and have him hung drawn and quartered based on the fact you've heard a rumour.

I agree that he's let us down this season but in the past he's been brilliant, let's not forget that.

[LeChuck]

Odemwingie was going to include Hoilett in the other direction, so that deal being off scuppers our chances of Thomas.

The loan window is still open after today so it's the be all and end all to get players in today.

Robinson and Vukcevic not moving on will really have thrown a spanner in the works.

He was unsettled in the first place because of actions carried out by Rovers. Rovers tried to bring in Friedel as a player/coach to replace both Robbo and Mimms (I wonder who came up with that idea in the first place, Spurs fan with a mustache by any chance?).

[jones_rover]

But if Odemwingie is staying surely that allows us to get Jermoe Thomas?
