Brierley 22:58 - Mar 1 with 5001 views | Shun | The Blackburn deal is off according to Alan Nixon, as is their more high profile deal for Lewis O’Brien. Although he reports the latter has been ruled that Blackburn can’t register him this season. So it might not be off in summer. Doubt he knows what he’s talking about really, as shown with the rumoured Brierley fee. [Post edited 2 Mar 2023 0:47]

Brierley on 09:28 - Mar 2 with 4575 views | James1980 | 'We've agreed that transfer will definitely go through regardless of the appeal, might be postponed till the summer' | |

Brierley on 11:31 - Mar 2 with 4409 views | SuddenLad | The appeal failed, and the deal is off or at least 'deferred' until the end of the season. Of course, there is now nothing to stop any other club from bidding for his services, in spite of Rovers saying they will go ahead in the summer. Any mentions of fees are meaningless because there is no deal to be done. Yet. | |

Brierley on 16:58 - Mar 2 with 3758 views | 49thseason | Surely thats a down- payment pending the transfer going through in the Summer? Maybe we told them we were in a hole having agreed to pay Alty for Mullarkey and they agreed to pay us enough to cover that deal as the Brierley cock- up was their fault. | | | |
Brierley on 17:25 - Mar 2 with 3675 views | Shun | It’s a good job we sacrificed two months of his career and our season to get this deal done. | | | |
Brierley on 17:55 - Mar 2 with 3617 views | BillyRudd | I can,t decide which has been the bigger farrago this season. Brierleys non-move, the selection of Captains, substitution decisions or the O,Donnell, Eastwood debacle. Somnambulating to the National League. | | | |
Brierley on 17:58 - Mar 2 with 3614 views | judd | It's a good job we foresaw Blackburn would be late with their paperwork too. | |
| |
Brierley on 18:05 - Mar 2 with 3590 views | 442Dale | Brierley is able to play for us, as was to be expected when he didn’t leave. That’s all we know for certain. The statements from Blackburn, written and verbal, are above. | |

Brierley on 18:07 - Mar 2 with 3580 views | judd | Word on the street is that it was a nailed-on deal | |
