Exactly. The supplier can value him as they want. The buyer can offer what they want. Where they agree is the value. As such Vik's value is £20m. Doug King was spot on to ask for that

But that is the modern game. That is how it is. However we've played it as well this time, and got ourselves a great fee. Things have changed. Sisu (circa 2008-2016) would've sold him for about £4m. Then complained that there wasn't any money to build a decent team and blamed...

Main difference is this time we've got a great fee, and it appears we're re-investing that in the team

Its actually in our interest for him to succeed, as we'll get a hefty sell on fee. Even without that Vik has always worked his socks of for us, and seems like a decent bloke. Apart from a few ill-judged comments the other week, he has been the model professional

I hope he goes on to have a great career. He played a massive part in the resurgence of our club, and the huge profit he has generated for us puts us in a great position for the future

A bit like the Stoke game this season

I did it myself last year. My old work would’ve meant me missing midweek games, so I wasn’t sure if it was worth it. However I changed jobs in July which meant I could make them, so bought it then

Think they’ll be a slow trickle over the next month with us ending up at 19k

Big numbers next season need a big atmosphere. The Birmingham game at the end of this season was the best overall atmosphere ever at the CBS/Ricoh IMO We need this every game next season

I’d say 22-23k if we’re having an alright season. If we have a good season again I think we’d be looking at 25k

Some other clubs I’ve seen limit season ticket sales at 85% of home capacity. If we’re not including blocks 10-13, that would be about 21k

Aren't Agent Fees paid by the purchasing club?

Considering the average number of home fans last year was about 19k (which in itself was impressive all things considered) for us to be close to matching that on season tickets alone is incredible

Wow. Might have to up my estimate then to it ending up at 19k

Certainly looks like quite a few more have sold. We must be near or at 17k now. Think we’ll end up at 18k

I went to that show😂 Think it was the same one where he ended it by saying he was raising money for abused children….to buy their silence

I think it’s more the huge fat arse of the bloke stood in front that would prevent you from seeing anything

So that looks like old style terracing, but you’re allocated a space and a barrier. Rather than being herded into a pen like an animal

Agree. Pretty sure Godden had a better scoring rate than Vik last season, but it obviously doesn’t mean he’s a better player
