I think he’s the Hamer replacement but when Gus played deeper prior to the run in last season

So do I but we seem reasonably well blessed with attacking midfielders at the moment, so this is probably what we need.

I hope our fans will learn a lesson from our summer signings - remember all the posts about our shocking recruitment - and give Torp a chance to settle in. It doesn't seem that long ago that some were even giving Tats some stick and now he is one of our heroes.

If we can just keep COH as well then I will look forward to the rest of this season and the next one with optimism.

No-one keen on "Let's do the Vic Torp again" then?

It's the thought of the pelvic thrust.

Martin180 said:

Lati is good enough to replace Kelly this season in that position. Can see him going out on loan

True but with our injury record Lati might be needed in other positions.

Easily solved..... change it to Nordic.

I loved Hamer and Gyokeres as individual players but I don't think I have been this excited about a city starting 11 since the Hadji, Chippo, McAllister days.

…or change Overgaard to Victor Torp, works the same both ways I guess

“Victor Torp, dancing round defenders
Victor Torp, let’s all sing together,
Victor Torp, he never gives the ball awaaaaay….

1,2,3,4”

Apologies to Cliff.

It's so funny how Victor Torp likes to score...

Doubt it, but okay!

On a Norwegian site Torp is listed as 6ft.

Now Doug’s spent a slither of the Hamer money, I wonder what other players he’s going to buy.

At least we will get a chance to wear them Viking hats now I’ve always wanted an excuse.

What’s so exciting is these are now all our players.
They’ll be no big rebuild needed in the summer. Just a few more additions.

Think we’re in for a cracking season next year

Has he, so what. My fag packet maths comes to just about all the Vik money and that’s only if all the fees were paid in full I doubt that.

Think we will need 7/8 in the summer still. Just not blockbuster signings aside from maybe one or two.

I had us at about £22m spent before Torp.

Yes about correct not sure exactly what we got for Vik I had it at £24million but I do doubt all the fees were paid up front.

I wonder if he’s already hit some of his addons as well considering he’s got 20 goals already and international caps/goals I think since moving.

We’ll if we made the Premiership it’s probably big money fees and wages but I reckon a number of our now squad would compete but if Robins gets quality in
who knows Luton as an example are competing better than I thought they would.

Great deal that by Doug King. In a strange way Viks helping us better than if he was here.

Oh of course. Just saying imagine. Imagine Tom.

How can anybody doubt Doug King. In 12 months he's overhauled the squad from plucky underdogs with 2 or 3 quality players Robins had to build everything around, to a squad littered with quality in every department, all on long term contracts. Don't you know pump it up...

According to some he's pocketed all the transfer money

Not sure anyone has said that, and it's clearly not true.

People expect him to start splashing the cash instantly, he's been level headed and doing things gradually which has what its always been under Robins

Best one yet, nice and simple absolutely cannot be arsed with another overthought wordy song for a new signing

Well here’s one for you if Vik went to the usa this month we could loan him in for the run in as it’s their close season January.

I read somewhere we get a million if he gets 25 goals this season.

Exactly we do have some muppets as fans who have no idea about anything monetary apart from Apple pay

They do both seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet on that. Unusual for both a manager and owner to be content with gradual progress

Not on here maybe, but there's been plenty of idiots on Twitter saying it
