Serves them right.
Rowett and Derby should have got in earlier and not left it to the last minute.
Dithering again!
Will he now be in our squad for the Derby game?

He isn't going to want to play for us now. Let's hope we won't need him

He's not like that. He'll give his all whenever called upon. KRO!!!!

You'd hope as a pro he would still give his all but like you I think his heart is not likely to be in it for us having come so close to a move away and reuniting with Rowett..shame really but I can see him struggling for games now..

Harry pulls another signing out of the bag! At least it's sorted out our midfield, as I saw some posts about how we're lacking cover in that area.

Dutch international with 72 caps and the midfield general for Ajax. How does 'Arry do it?

Blues confirmed this today. They say, 'Derby state that they believe sufficient transfer documentation was completed before the 11pm deadline last Thursday and appropriate supplemental forms followed a short while later, due to Kieftenbeld and agent being in different locations.

However, the League's view is that the full criteria was not met for the transfer to be accepted.

From a Blues perspective, the Club did everything necessary in regard to processing the transfer within the required deadline.'

Absolutely

Of all the players he is totally not like that. He's won't throw his teddies out. He will give his all..

Pity this sort of thing didn't happen when we gave away Butland or Gray. < <

Don't know how to feel about this tbh. I think 2m was a fair deal & cant see him playing much with Gardner, N'Doye, Davis, Walsh & Lowe competing for 2 CM places. Yes he's better than Gleeson for back up but I can't see he's mind being totally focused now as he's prob been training with Derby and reunited with Rowett & was planning on playing for them, he pretty much knows he's not needed here now and will be looking forwards to moving January, just my opinion.

I'm over the moon he's back, but it's not going to be easy for him to get his head back in the zone. His sale was the one sour point in an otherwise stupendous transfer deadline day for me. We may well need him too if there are injuries in the midfield, particularly the CDM role.

As transfer wasn't rubber stamped he hasn't been able to join Derby training assume player has been in limbo until today

Don't get all the fuss here. Despite the lack of any technical ability he has always been totally committed and don't imagine there will be any problem with his attitude. In any event he only has to wait until Xmas not exactly the end of the world.

Should we change the title of this thread? Kieftenbeld NOT sold to Derby, or Kieftenbeld ALMOST transferred to Derby ;)

If Derby come in for him again. From reading their forums he was more of a last minute panic buy due to being thin in CM, some of them are pleased it didn't go through, I think Rowett would much rather have Davis (he bid several times before going on to kief) or he might find another suitable CM.

Was it £2m or £600k?

At £600k I think he was undervalued. At £2m I'd have piggy backed him to Derby...

Kieftenbeld's job in a team is one that either goes unnoticed in a successful team or gets a lot of criticism in a team like ours. His job is to win back the ball and give it to the skillful play maker who feeds the strikers . So he looks poor in our team as we don't have any play makers and unproven strikers.
Derby do have skillful play makers and proven strikers at this level so I guess Rowett sees Kieftenbeld as an important player in his plan
After the signings we have made I think Kieftenbeld definitely would have a role to play.

And Derby don't think they need anyone to take 30 secs to check the form's been filled in properly

Kieftenbeld was in Holland I believe and I don't think the transfer materialised until late on Deadline Day.

Mind you, never trust a footballer to do stuff they have to do for themselves 😂
