January Transfer Window.

[Sweaty Gussets]

I'm guessing we're the only club in the country whose fans don't yet know who was signed on transfer deadline day? 

[den]

Best guess is they’re trying to drag Thomason back to Ewood.

The fact the Brierley hasn’t been announced yet either, gives me hope this is a comms thing rather than it’s fallen through.

If that's all they're going to announce there'd be hell to pay. Expect that'll be a footnote on the website, no tweet etc.

[jim mk2]

It wouldn't be a surprise if Tomasson walked. This isn't presumably what he was promised and what he signed up for

What if they have loads of fall out to manage? e.g. JDT and/or Joe Egg have resigned, owing to lack of backing/communication..in a Lambert on steroids event !

Wasn't going to comment until something official was announced but can't resist any longer. Why the assumption that IF things have gone wrong it's the owners fault? Surely it would be the fault of those on the ground tasked with getting the deals done. The only way in which the owners could be to blame would be if they'd changed their minds about a deal/deals at the last minute which hardly seems likely.

IF everything has gone wrong I think I could cope with an announcement that we've signed no-one and Waggott and Broughton have received their P45's.

I could also cope with it if deals have been done and it's merely poor PR but whether it's sheer incompetence or they're sitting there for a few hours pissing themselves watching everyone work themselves up into a lather it's extremely poor form.

Right that's it, definitely over and out until official word is forthcoming.

Could do with them announcing a fan's PTSD helpline alongside any signings

Fair points, but...who keeps appointing sub standard people to key posts? 

It is rather a long list of *****, since 2010...

[JacknOry]

Maybe they've lost the keys to the stadium and waiting for a locksmith?

[Torgeir]

Can we make it to 300 before there's an announcement?

[Oldgregg86]

This is fkin mental 😅

[TheRevAshton]

I've been told that there's been a massive kick off between JDT and Broughton - they're about to have a straightener on the B&Q car park.

[davulsukur]

It's nearly 11:30 on the day after the window closed. Surely, any announcements would have been done by now?

Even if they have some photos to take and stuff, must have been done by now.

I blame the owners for their refusal to get properly involved in the day to day running of the club. It’s immoral to behave in the way they have.

I shouldn’t laugh because I’m annoyed we’ve not heard anything…but that made me Lol.

[JacknOry]

I spent all day yesterday pressing f5 - thought i might be able to rest my fingers today - Rovers say no.

[CD_93]

Waiting on EFL ratification for 2 deals.

100%. Budgets for the pesky underperforming outpost that is Blackburn Rovers are done in the summer and any attempt to contact them after that will be met with disdain - "why are the serfs pestering us about that Blackburn United thing we shouldn't have bought in 2012"

[Sweaty Gussets]

[Sweaty Gussets]

Sack the EFL!

[BankEnd Rover]

So nothing is confirmed. Man this is going to be painful if we’ve missed on both due to paperwork.

[JacknOry]

Even if that is the case, not informing the fanbase of this much earlier is pretty low. Just a quick SMS to Sharpe is all it would have taken.
