Despite pretty much everyone rooting for the move – a bid to immortalise Conor McGregor on a €1 coin has been rejected.
Today the Oireachtas Petitions Committee turned down the bid, because they could not contact the person responsible for submitting it.
However since the news hit today, fans have been contacting Central Bank supporting the move.

Conor didn’t seem too happy to hear the petition wasn’t passed, writing “F*** you” on his Twitter page.
Despite not passing today, Conor thanked fans for asking for the coin, and even posted a picture of what he would want the coin to look like.
There’s always next time Conor…
