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.

…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...

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

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.
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.

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

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

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

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

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 sure anyone has said that, and it's clearly not true.
Not on here maybe, but there's been plenty of idiots on Twitter saying it
