Speculation Jamie Vardy

[Miles Away]

I don't know whether to be thankful or offended. I'll go with 'meh'.

Wise choice.

SSN also saying it's done (despite their claim that he's at the Walkers Stadium for a medical)

They do not exist Kingy. I'm sure that you'd like to think that they do, but you can not name a single player from any club. That's because they don't exist. It's just idealised nonsense.

Jay Spearing?

Surely he's playing out of his skin for the team he supports/grew up at ? The best he can hope for once he's dropped is a mid-table championship side?

£1.7mill with add ons?

Good Lord. We're still spending big ..... just on non league players.

 

[Mawsley]

We're going to be totally equipped for a League 1 title challenge.

Who cares how much we are spending. If the board sanction it and we have the money and it fits in to the FFP rules and the current management team think it is money well spent, there is no difference in spending £1.7 million, £200 million or £20 thousand on a player.

I just hope that at worst we offered him the same wage as Peterborough and Cardiff and at best we offered him significantly less but we sold him on the passion of playing for the shirt and thus he chose to join us.

Fourth Official ‏ @Fourth_Official
Vardy has signed a 3 year deal at Leicester and asked for the number 33 shirt #LCFC

Not sure who's right but there's only one way to find out .....

Seeing as all of the fees are either a) unknown b) 'reported' and c) differ from source to source, we may as well ignore them.

People who want to say we spend too much pick the higher figures to prove their point and people saying we don't use the lower ones or say they are all spurious (much like this post). So there really is no point worrying about them.

If the Vardy fee was made up of 200k up front, 500k for scoring 20 and 500k if we got promoted and a 40% sell on fee, would that be better?

So you agree that you don't mind if the Thais spend £10m on Vardy?

It's not your money, it's only debt against the club.

I'm glad we agree

 

[FryattFox]

I'm glad we agree

We don't.

 

[Matt_B]

We don't.

Do you agree you are getting upset over made up best guesses?

 

[Kingy_85]

Lunacy of the highest order.

I send my wife to Tesco to get carrots. I figure that even "Tesco Finest" carrots can't cost more than £5. She comes back and she's spent £16.00 but she went to Aldi - I'm going to be annoyed.

Done deal apparantly being reported by BBC according to the Fourth Official:

Fourth Official‏@Fourth_Official
BBC reporting confirmation of Jamie Vardy's transfer from Fleetwood to Leicester is on its way, been a done deal for a few weeks

https://twitter.com/#!/fourth_official

I hate to join the ranks of "so and so's second cousin twice removed, who collects the rubbish from Vardy's neighbour's house... etc" brigade, but I work with a fella who used to be Assistant Manager at Fleetwood and he told me it was a done deal 2 weeks ago... if anyone can be arsed to check the Fleetwood records for his name to see if he's spinning me a pile of crap, send me a PM :icon_bigg

 

[dpjfox]

when does "speculation" become "confirmed?" OS? or possibly Vardys twitter, seems done/dusted but still needs rubber stamping by our Jeff
