What Hursty called the “lazy scouts” will have taken notice the other night given the exposure that goal/performance have got which does make me worry a little tbh.

I'm convinced we'll not lose CV this summer, in essence he's had half a dozen performances of any note, the last 3 being his best by far, but prior to that he'd gone unnoticed and had to drop to a bottom of the national League just to get game time.
I would expect the scouts will now be out looking at him, but cannot see an offer coming in from anyone who would interest him.
If he plays excellent in the last 14 games maybe someone will take a punt on him, that being said, if he's loving his football here and believes Holloway will getting him playing even better, it would be more advantageous for his progression and increase his chances of getting a move higher up the pyramid staying with us for at least the 2920/2021 season.
Ah, y'see I think there's a marked difference between a player hitting form at the right time of the season to attract the scouts and a player who's genuinely controlling and dictating games. The way Vernam is playing he looks like a player who's head and shoulders above his peers rather than just hitting a purple streak. The only comparisons in a Town shirt that I can give is one from 23 years ago, the other from about 5/6. One is John Oster, the other is Conor Townsend. The lazy scouts referenced by Mariner_09 will indeed have seen his goal return in recent weeks and his goal from the other night. Those that have bothered to watch him in the last month will see a player who is dominant. |

!!!!!! Get some perspective. This reminds me of a few weeks ago when Pollock was mentioned alongside Futcher. The lad is in very good form but lets not go OTT. |

Bottom line is that everyone has a price - that price will be higher if we tie him to a longer deal.

It’s in everyone’s interest for him to extend , he’ll get more pay at a local club where he’ll play every week and be able to really put himself in the shop window .
It’s not like the club would ever stand in the way of him getting a good offer , we’d always sell him if the offer was right

But what if a league one/Championship club puts a 3 year deal in front of him at 4k a week? It would be foolish on the strength of half a dozen good games, but then such clubs are always out there. CV would be crazy to turn that down!

This is the lastest from IM taken from Grimsbyonline.
"We’ve got an option in his contract to take up. Do I want to extend it the way he’s going? Yes. Would I want to do it now while he’s on fire? No, I want to see how long he can stay on fire for"

If he's under contract to us then it's up to us not him! We need to exercise our option in the first instance and then sort out an extension that satisfies all parties. |

I agree. Only just became aware we had an option beyond this year. |

Common sense from Ollie. A hat trick and some good games are great for us but this form would have to be continued over a decent period for the lad to be worthy of some of the OTT praise. He does have a look of Reddy or Boulding to him but it is still early days. |
