Libertine Dream Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 I'd rather pay 1 million for this guy than the 2/3/4 million for some of the rumoured strikers last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhandfox Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 Ian Wright played for Dulwich Hamlet before joing Palace, then Arsenal, Les Ferdinand played for Southall and Stan Collymore for Stafford Ranger!, so why not! But £1 million is alot of money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seenitall Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 How is Beckford bad value at £3m when Waghorn cost £3m and this guy who plays in the park is worth £1m - ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADK Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 At the end of the day we need anoter 2 strikers in the summer. With our budget £1million is quite cheap for a striker. I wouldn't have any problem with us signing him although i have to admit i don't think he'll be able to step up so many leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluearmyfox28 Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 Wouldn't mind 3 strikers personally I would prefer to replace beckford his attitude is shit and we don't want that Kind of attitude in our squad next season, would like Vardy,Cox and either 1 of chris wood or that lad Perbey ( think that's his name? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 I'm sure he's still got contacts at the club Bite number 1. But stringer Said so on a serious note tho I think he is worth the gamble he would know that people dont think he is good enough therefore will want to prove them wrong also I have watched him a few times with his pace and movement I think he is capable of beating most championship centre halves and he has proven for years that he has a eye for goal!! He had one game against a Championship side this season and he ripped them (Blackpool) to shreds apparently (even though Blackpool did actually win 1-5). I really do think this lad could be a success for us. Not saying definitely but the way people write him off is unbelievable. He's scored 11 league goals in total, admittedly in a better team but about half of his appearances have been from the bench. It's foolish to discount his recent performances too as that's when Reading have had most to play for. His goals helped them beat Soton at St Mary's which set them up pretty nicely for the title. I'm not saying he's the best player in the world but a good example of someone stepping up from a lower league. Going down the leagues for players is always a gamble but I have no reason to not trust NP's judgement on Vardy. I'm not saying he's done too badly but people go on like he's got some outstanding record. Compared to Beckford, yes fair enough, but compared to Nugent? We didn't pay a penny for Nugent, who's scored more and set up more, that is surely a better deal? Bite number 2. Congrats to Happy Fox who avoided it when these two didn't.

Guest parky0607 Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 Not sure how people on here are making judgements before theyve even seen him play. Just because he plays in non-league doesnt mean hes a bad player. Surely everyone has to start somewhere and surely its good that we are making efforts to scout our own players instead of spending stupid money on has beens. Havng seen this guy play on numerous occasions I can safely say we will not make a loss on 1 million. He will also have the passion and attitude which most of our players have lacked this season.

ryanlcfc Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 If he signs and dont score in his first game for us he will have been a waste of money like every other striker we sign. I hope hes ready for all the bullshit from our clueless fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazfox9 Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 Get him in. Big step yes, but he's scored enough goals to convince me he's worth a punt. He's head and shoulders above anyone else at that standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flowwolf Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 I want him signed just so when he has an inevitable fall out with Pearson and refuses to play we can call him " Mardy Vardy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakemoore Posted 20 April 2012 Share Posted 20 April 2012 Do any of you actually know if he's any good? Or are you just looking at stats?! I do wonder with this forum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooseBreath Posted 21 April 2012 Share Posted 21 April 2012 I quite like the idea that he signs, turns out to be shit, gets lambasted by the city faithful to the point where he turns to burgers, cramming them into any and every available orifice at any time of day and night, and then the inevitable weight gain he will suffer will give us an opportunity to call him "Lardy Vardy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooseBreath Posted 21 April 2012 Share Posted 21 April 2012 I can see that happening actually. I've lost count of the number of players we've lost to black gangsters. Although Stearman and Mattock were in it more for the bum love than the petty crime im sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
