Lewis O'Brien receives Nottingham Forest support after failed transfer vow

Nottingham Forest supporters have been showing their support for midfielder Lewis O'Brien after his loan move to Blackburn Rovers was blocked.

O'Brien tweeted about the situation on Wednesday after the EFL confirmed Blackburn had been unsuccessful in their attempts to appeal the decision. It's a move that leaves O'Brien in limbo, unable to play competitive football until the end of the season - unless he moves to a country where the transfer window is still open.

Despite the decision, O'Brien has been flooded with messages of support from Nottingham Forest supporters on Twitter. Below is a look at some of them.

@ashbashforest : Stay Strong buddy.

@Debs90181034 : Hope you get to play football somewhere this season Lewis. You deserve it!

@OllyBausor : BIG career still ahead! All you can do is keep working hard, and learning everyday, for when the time comes, you're at your best!

@foxy219 : We are gutted for you too. Keep working, Forest still has a place for you.

@Forest_No_22 : Man of the match in home debut vs West Ham. One way or another it shouldn’t have come to this. Top talent.

@woolly80 : Mate, you will come back stronger because of it. Hope that still is with #nffc after a proper pre season but if not, you'll shine elsewhere. Just not Derby please!

@RedDogGary : Thought you was one of our best players at the start of the season, not sure what went wrong but hope you get another chance to shine in pre season.

@Reggie8jb : Gutted for you Lewis. Really hoping you get back in the Forest side from the summer. In the Prem. Looked superb pre World Cup.

@davo261088 : Sorry to hear that mate, you have done absolutely nothing wrong here and deserve to be playing football somewhere. I hope you can secure yourself a deal somewhere exotic until the summer.

@matt0675 : Sorry to hear this, hopefully you will come back stronger as part of the Forest squad for next season - quality player.
