I have to work near Fleetwood one day a week so have a bit of local knowledge. Loads of clubs looked at Vardy during his time at fleetwood but there were certain well known aspects of his lifestyle that put big clubs off at the time, that and his pricetag. At the time Fleetwoods owner was pumping silly money in and had no intention of letting him go for less that 1ml. He was seen as too high a risk for that sort of money.
