Yet alot of clubs including some of the Best PL teams who need a striker or defensive midfielder 

Nobody should care about them, only interested in what we are doing.

We knew the priority's well before the window opened.

Looks like we will fail, again.

Surely any foreign signings are now off the table, how would they get to Blackburn in time for any sort of medical or paperwork?

You really shouldn’t be defending the club after numerous failed windows. Only a Dingle would defend the Bi-annual deadline day shitshow. Perhaps something to consider?

Yuri flew in yesterday so that one looks like hopeful…..

He was outstanding during his time at Forest .. 

https://www.nottinghamforest.news/2020/08/07/end-of-season-report-yuri-ribeiro-shows-class-in-maiden-nottingham-forest-campaign/

Looking less & less likely at this stage is goal machine Mostafa ..

Mostafa Mohamed's last 4 Ligue 1 games:

- penalty won to secure the draw ✅

- goal in the 90th minute to secure the draw ✅

- winning goal to secure the 3 points ✅

“Mostafa Mohamed will stay at FC Nantes. We need him, the club needs him, and the coach appreciates him. It will therefore naturally remain in Nantes"

(Owner of FC Nantes )

 

So are we to assume Yuri and whatever loan scraps we can pick up from the Prem for the striker, and that'll be our window done?

Absolutely correct.

Rudy and the pudding must be relieved that they're within hours of hitting Pasha's target of spending as good as nowt 

[rovers11]

Danns expected to go to Sunderland today. Mustafa is surely a no go after scoring yesterday. BTA is in good form at Coventry so that's a no go.

They had all month to sign striker and now options are fading fast.

[Rover down South]

Reading that Danns is off to Sunderland.

Nantes keeping Mohamed.

I’m sure there’s some injury prone striker sitting on the bench in league 2 we are lining up.

With the injuries to Ohashi & Leonard we should have had a striker in and training today.

How underwhelming this window has been given the names we’ve been linked with!

So did those clubs but yet they still haven't strengthen in those areas yet.

It's called having a different opinion to others. 

What gone has gone. Key personnel in those roles have changed from previous season. Maybe something to consider here? 🤔😁

Bit they'll say they've already a signed a striker....

[Inferi]

Finally the final day of the transfer window is here. The only day where the true quality players are obtainable. Sure glad we didn't panic and sign dross like Whittaker or Aasgaard.

[TheRevAshton]

We're missing out on every single one of our targets, almost all for money related reasons despite the fact that we're back to only targeting loans.

Low-balling on wages and dragging their feet, all the way until another Club swoops in.

They're an embarrassment... penny-pinching, amateur, shameless bastards.

We'll sign this left-back i'm sure of that... low wages, no competition etc. But they've had a full month to sign a striker and failed, there is absolutely no excuse - Eustace deserves so much better.

Ah yes, it will be different this time👀🤣

Its called sticking your head in the sand. 

[Penwortham Blue]

I can’t believe that we can’t even land Danns, we should be considered the perfect fit given track record and location.

It doesn't make it ok because other clubs haven't got there targets.

This is 3 Januarys out of the last 4 where we have been sitting in the top 6 come the end of the January window and failed massively.

Change of personal nothing to do with it.

That’s unless it’s already down the line and they are in the country. Rumours probably come to light 2/3 days after clubs speak surely

[roversfan99]

So seems like there is a very real chance that we dont sign a striker at all.

Surely not?! 

[Rover down South]

Didn’t progress????

Must surely have an alternative lined up and weren’t pinning our hopes on Mohamed?

Maybe with the exception of Ribeiro... We can probably just log off for the day.
