Mark_w Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 If Vardy scores less than 9 goals I suppose we will be wanting him out too. I doubt Vardy will be on the same wages as Beckford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackneyfox Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Yes. All done and dusted. Irrespective of him being unproven, i've a feeling this lad has goals written all over him. I don't know why anyone bothers to post about transfers, it seems that everyone is itk on this board. Is it just one blabbermouth at the club or is it like a colander? I doubt Vardy will be on the same wages as Beckford Don't you know? Every other bugger claims to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee_Fox Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Not bad. Edit: By the way I never ever once said Vardy would sign 'today' on any particular day... https://twitter.com/#!/Fourth_Official/status/197641385673891840 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramadaone Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Vardy will sign today. If he doesn't then nobody can have a go at me because things can change so quickly in football, I'm just giving you the information I'm given. This insider stuff is easy. He needs to pass a medical first then your info will be spot on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieADZ Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Not bad.

bradley_19 Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Sky Sports understands Leicester City have agreed a deal worth £1million for Fleetwood Town striker Jamie Vardy. Vardy is understood to have turned down offers from fellow Championship sides Cardiff City and Peterborough United to join Leicester. Sky Sports has learnt the striker is now at the Walkers Stadium, undergoing a medical ahead of signing for the Foxes. The Conference champions have agreed what is a record deal for a non-league player, and it could rise to £1.7million. Vardy, 25, only joined Fleetwood last season from Halifax Town. Before that he played over 100 games for Stocksbridge Park Steels. well they think its a done deal!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl the Llama Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 I have my reservations about this signing. Scoring 40 in 34 is all very impressive but non-league and second-tier are very different ballparks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 17 May 2012 Author Share Posted 17 May 2012 Where is the best place to play him in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3? Hopefully he and Nugent can form a blossoming partnership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morris1234 Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 Micheal Kightly has proven that players can adapt to the step up. Good example! And More than enough have made the step up. But the argument is pointless as every players is different so we should all wait to see him play and not give him a deadline like we did last season, I seem to recall some comments made along the lines of 'if Nugent hasn't scored x amount by this time' etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad the Fox Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 I'd just like to state that I am itk. Yes, I text my non fox talk/internet surfing friends this when it first appeared on here a few weeks back. I shall now send them a typical itk text saying 'My source tells me Vardy move completed as i reported weeks ago. Remember you heard it here first.' Well, to them I am in the know.

Lambert09 Posted 17 May 2012 Share Posted 17 May 2012 I know he has been playing upfront for Fleetwood but I think he may be brought in as a winger. Still expect another striker to sign. Preferably Heskey or Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
