I'd be gutted if he left, his workrate is exceptional. Most the rest of the squad would do very well to close players down and pressurise like he does.
He is pretty economical with his finishing too for someone who doesn't get many chances. The two goals against Palace were great finishes.
It is a bit of a coincidence that Reg announces he is leaving in the summer and the Standard announces that Luke is due to be got rid of in the summer! The reporter probably heard through a drunken haze that Varney was leaving in the summer, fell asleep for the rest of the press conference and fleshed out the story for his editor with the wrong meat!
if luke stays he'll be our player of the year next season imo he just needs some good management/coaching for a while and he'll soon be a star.... scunny/norwich on loan should do the trick
Luke's the best of the lot at the moment - crazy to sub him on Sat and would be even more crazy to offload, esp if we are still in this league.
I think Harry Gregory may have just hit the nail on the head, though!

As H (above) and Weegie point out, this is typical lazy hack reporting - and no doubt this particular moron has simply confused the 2 Varney's.
Anyway, we see the best out of Luke when he's given a free role, as against Palace.
Pards said he told Varney to go out and play is if he was in the school playground.
That night he was everywhere and Palace couldn't get near him.

If we recouped what we paid for him then I wouldn't be devastated if he did go.
Still I think he should be given a run with a strike partner for more than 45 minutes.

i disagree - given a run in the team he'll score goals

But he hasn't given us the expected return for a £2m+ outlay.
Reminds me of Gary Nelson
so my team for tonight would be
Weaver
Thatch Bombscare Sodje Youga
Sinclair Semedo Ambrose Holland Varney
Gray
ZZ on the bench give him a rest.
