I wouldn't be against the sale if we had anything resembling a competent recruitment strategy. If we don't replace him with someone who has a similar physical presence we're gonna be easy pickings from set pieces and balls into the box next season.

This is the same club that spent £20-25m on Oliver Skipp...are you sure about that?

Wilf was massive for us last season, would be a shame to lose him for £9m. Especially when we turned down £10m for McAteer

The peak Vardy years <3

I think that's doing a disservice to semi-pro teams as well

I think they'll likely smash it commercially. Turnover of £26.7m in league two is insane.

Skipp will be up there.

Cracking fight that and more than lived up the hype. Wasn't much different to most British title fights you see that end up with 2 lads going toe to toe. The worst part about big fights is people that watch 1 or 2 fights a year moaning that boxing is fixed/dead/corrupt @MPH not sure if you mishead or not but it's fourteen months not fourty :p Still a long time out to come into a fight like this though. If we do a rematch i'l expect he'd have 2 more this year and then they'd look to do something early next year. I'd actually love to see if Connor benn could could come down 6/7 lbs and fight nick ball. That'd be a hell of a tear up but unfortunately probably too hard to bridge the weigh gap between them.

That Spurs midfield is talented, but couldn't punch it's way out of a wet paper bag. Fancy Liverpool will run a train over these today, especially with one eye on Thursday

159, 159, 158, 160 are the weight that Eubank has come in at for his last 4 fights, it's not like he's doing something abnormally freakish as a one off, it's something he's experienced in doing. I'm buzzing for the fight, really expecting this to be a good tear up from the off. Benn hasn't managed a KO since getting off the...erm egg whites. So will be interesting to see if he has a bit of extra oompf with going up weight. Really hoping I see Billam Smith takes Glanton's head off after the comments Glanton made yesterday. Hoping Yarde will dispatch Arthur in what should be another great watch. Viddal v Clarke should be a good scrap as should McKenna v Smith. As far as cards go, it's very decent, possibly not for non Brit, but if you're a British boxing fan there's got to be plenty there for you.

Eubank JR fined $500k for coming in at 160.02lb

It would be pretty funny to see Vards score for Wrexham in front of the kop and give it the beans. Purely morbid curiosity of being on the other side of his shenanigans

Eubank can gain back 10lb between fridays weigh in and saturday between 8-9am. So after that, there's nothing to stop him rehydrating and fueling well after that in preperation for the fight which is 13-14 hours later.

Has he got the charisma? Literally the only gear we know he has is "wind up merchant/knob head" I feel like that'd get quite tiresome after a while

What about the other 3 corners?

9/4 as well. Absolute scenes in the Coalville town club house.

It would be fitting given that's where most have his shots have ended up recently

This is cynical as hell, but have the club orchestrated this Vardy news to absorb some of the attention and anger from the confirmed relegation this week?

Not necessarily my favourite moment, but one that instantly came to mind. I remember watching this game in a pub and thinking, "damnnn there is a Premier League player in there" when this went in. Well it wasn't as understated as that at the time

All this does is emphasise the fact that we've not been screwed by PSR and a corrupt league like some of whingebags would have you believe. There's no interest in investing money that doesn't belong to the club. Converting loans into equity because of league rules doesn't count as "investing" either before anyone tries that.

Rudkin being given power and any say over the football club, would still be detrimental in my eyes . He'll still want final say. So we either get a "yes" man who just does what Rudkin wants or anyone with their own mind will be constantly undermined and leave at the first opportunity.

Scenes when he rocks up at Wednesday and proceeds to bag 2 hattricks against them

The guy likely made another £5m+ from us this season, I'm pretty sure he'd prefer that to leaving at the end of last season.

Thank christ for that, that's a massive sense of relief knowing that we're finally letting go. Good luck Vards, 13-14, 14-15, 15-16 and 16-17 champions league performances were all absolutely massive seasons for us. Would be class to see him tearing it up in the MLS and winding up fanbases across America. Will be a shame if he ends up in Saudi playing in front of 800 people.
