It would take a bit of research, but it would be good to see what the general foxestalk view of Vardy was throughout the years.
For example, towards the end of his third season, when it looked like we were getting relegated, I distinctly remember the conversation being around Vardy's potential departure to West Bromwich albion for £7m. The main comments were along the lines of 'let's bite their hands off if they offer £7m' (no talk of 'amortisation' back then, but people saw £6m profit as good) and general bafflement of why on earth would a premier league team buy a 29 year old for £7m when he had already shown he wasn't good enough for the Premier league!
